Sezy Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I received the phone call that I knew would come soon last night from my mother. Poor Tristan my cocker spanial had collapsed doing what he loved, running around at the Lion's Club paper shed. He was rushed to the vet but sadly died in the car. If he had been eating it would have been the perfect end for my fat dog. He was my first dog that was mine, my mother spotted him as the dog of the week in the paper. I was told no that I was not aloud to have him. After meeting him and a huge fight with my parents I bought him home anyway. In his 7 years that we have had him he has been the perfect dog, you could not fault him. He was loved by many and will be missed by many. Everyone around town knew him. He loved doing what most cocker spanials do and that is eating, swimming and being with his family. He was scared of my pet rabbit but could not careless about other dogs. For the dog that I was in huge trouble for bringing home, when it came time for me to leave home my parents would not part with him. With my sisters all moving out over time he has become their child. I have been lucky to get my dog back here and there but it was only ever for a short time. For a dog that was picked up by a farmer on the side of the road and then left at the pound, he was wonderful. Twistie dog you will be missed.......

kozpink Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Thanks for asking Sezy, Yes I still miss my darling Roo to much for words to explain , I feel my life has changed and will never be the same Still can't look at pictures of her All I can do is TRY and make some good out of it by helping out other dogs in need. Anyway this is not about me, been thinking about you and hoping you are at peace with yourself knowing you gave Tristan a great life, he was very lucky to have a second chance. Sorry to hear you had a bad morning, I know it can happen anytime. People tell you to think of the happy times, but that just makes you miss them more Wish there was something I could say to make you feel better :D Feeling your pain :D Pink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sezy Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 Hehe not that Tristan was a fan of other dogs but I am sure that he would not mind sharing his thread with Roo!! I was talking to Mum last night and was saying that I am suprised that I was not more of a mess but I think that it helps that I know from when we had him that he had a great life, also the last few times that I have been home knowing that he was getting on that I have made sure that I have spent some extra special time with him and taken lots of photo's. Cally and Carter are loving all the extra cuddles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
