persephone Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 The end of an era. Tiy was born around 13 years ago... supposedly to be a star worker. At 4 weeks old, she managed to find the kitchen door (from outside), knocked on it to come in..and she went & sat under Mum's chair. That was that. She was fiercely protective of anything 'hers' - including us. yes, she would snap at /bite intruders. She was fantastic to have around here,in the isolation. She was never really great with other dogs - but was fine with cats/chooks ,and anything else. She lived solely for her people. When I was working, she would not move from the back gate until I came home - rain, hail ,or shine. When Mum was away in hospital.. she would look at Mum's chair... Recently she suddenly aged, became more short tempered, started dragging the legs, and became incontinent. The last few nights, she barked and barked from her bed. Today the decision was made, and carried out. She had a nice morning - eating bones,and dentasticks,and liver treats, out in a patch of sun..then a ride in teh 4WD. I will miss her. I hope she finds Mum quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
