    Very sorry to hear you've lost your Mudgekin.

    Always so painful to say goodbye to our little friends.

    Hugs x

    So sorry for your loss, but it sounds as though you made the right decision for Mudgekin. I wouldn't have done any different. Virtual hugs.
    Good enough is good enough, and I am more than good enough!:j

    If all else fails, remember, keep calm and hug a spaniel!

    Agree you did best for her and so much nicer for her that the vet came out to her own house.

    awww - I feel your loss hun, this made me cry because it brought back memories of the moments my loved ones were PTS too! its a horrible time. But, you did your best, you have nothing to berate yourself about. your pet must have had a wonderful life as you are such a caring person. I am so sorry, its a terrible time for you and only time will heal.

    So sorry for the loss of your baby. That's a lovely thing you did for her though having her PTS at home in familiar surroundings where she was always comfortable. I hope you can take comfort knowing she's not suffering any more. Thinking of you both x

    Oh Mudge :( really sorry to hear this :(

    Sending HUGE hugs to you!
    I have a simple philosophy:
    Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. Scratch where it itches.

    Really sorry to hear your sad news, it's heart-breaking to lose a much-loved pet but it's comforting (I hope) that you were there with her at the end.

    My old boy died at the vets, he was on a drip for dehydration and I was so distressed to think he'd died alone.
