The Anonymous Widower

Death Of A Dog

I vividly remember the end of the life of our first English Setter ; Charlotte.

Charlotte and Daisy

She was in a bad state and wasn’t getting up from in front of AGA.

After a phone call to our vet, who knew her well, he said he’d come round at the end of the day on his way home and assess the situation.

He turned up after midnight and after a quick assessment, he felt that she wouldn’t last the night. So he gave her an injection whilst I stroked her.

Afterwards, I had an unopened bottle of Paddy in the cupboard, so we drank well for about an hour to Charlotte.

He took Charlotte away afterwards.

I do sometimes think, that dogs get better end-of-life care than humans do!
