It seems Abbie's illness which we thought she was recovering from was caused by a more serious problem and unfortunately she took a turn for the worse and I had no alternative but to make the terrible decision that all owners dread so to prevent any further suffering she was given peace while in my arms. I brought her into the world and it was only right I was with her when she left. She was never a show dog or brood but to me she was a 'one off' and I miss her terribly. She was 16 years, 3 months.
