Florrie.

The estimable grey face as she became known in her adage, was one of the first ever dogsey pups and though I don't post all that often anymore it seemed only fitting that her beginning was documented here, so her ending should be too.
Flo had been ill since the start of the gear with a heart murmur and various issues but for the last few months seemed to be doing okay, so when she started coughing and wheezing over the weekend I didn't think it was anything more than another bought of off colour-ness. The vets confirmed via x ray yesterday that there was an inoperable and aggressive mass in her chest and spreading too her trachea. After a bit of a bad night at home I took her back to the surgery this morning where, as she had done a thousand times before, she went to sleep on my lap but for the last time. I sat and reminded her of all we had been trough together, of all the adventures we had had, and thanked her for being there to see me through from a lanky 15 year old who spent too much time in fields with terriers an ferrets, through to an adult and being there trough the good, bad and ugly in between.
She was a huge huge character, and I and the others shall miss her immensely. I've had an outpour of condolences from masses of friends and family members once they heard the news, she manage to make an impression on everyone she ever met with her quaint little ways and quiet confidence.
Goodnight little Flo dog, those hairy paddle feet of yours will sure take some filling.
