Mrs Rusty Bucket Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Hi all, especially Adelaide DOLers I know some of you have met Banshee. She had throat cancer - at age 3, found when it was past fixing, so died sometime last week. I visited the shop yesterday, and YG wasn't there but her helper was, and when I was admiring a gorgeous picture of Banshee by Deefer dogs on the wall, I was told the news. Just thought I'd pass it on. Hugs to YG - this kind of extra sadness in your life - is just not fair. I hope you forgive me for passing on the message. Some pix by Snook to remember Banshee by. http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/216841-adelaide-dol-meet-130311/page__p__5199918__hl__banshee__fromsearch__1#entry5199918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowgirl Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Thank you friends. Most of my rescues are seniors or palliative care, so to lose my youngest girl was a hell of a shock. She had bi lateral Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the tonsils. Very rare, very aggressive, no treatment. When she went off her food I thought maybe it was her pancreatitis, but we had that well under control so it didnt seem right. Straight off to the vets and three days later it was confirmed she had cancer in both tonsils. By the time they confirmed it, she couldnt even eat without coughing up blood poor darling and the only option I had was to let her go We had a beautiful half hour together beforehand, on the lawn at the vets, just being together with lots of cuddles and her snoozing in my arms. I tried not to let her know anything was wrong and I sang our Banshee Girl song to her as she was going to sleep. I picked up her ashes last week and will be buying something special for her to rest in when Im up to it. Here's the beautiful portrait that Rose from Deefer Dogs Designs did of her a couple of months ago. What a beautiful memory of my gorgeous, loving, cheeky, happy, special girl. And a few more memories of my angel ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsKatie Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 She was a unique little gremlin Jo - and once she found you she knew that was where she belonged - her time with you was very special for both of you and she will be sadly missed by many of us. to you Run free Banshee - watch over those who loved you here and wait for them at the Bridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Gifts Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I also remember reading about Banshee and always felt if I come back in my next like as a crestie, even a really ugly and messed up one then I want to go and live with Yellow Girl because I know she will find something to love about me. Run free Banshee! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
