Bevd Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Sally has let us know that although she's had a lovely time, with lots of fun and laughter, she's ready to head off to The Bridge now. She's fought a very good fight, which began with the first instance of 'wibbly legs' back in October 2005, followed by cancerous mammary tumours in January 2006 and she's always bounced back but now, her legs are very tired and this morning, even her bark (which has always been strong....and frequent) is tired, so it's time to let her go so that she can become whole and strong again. I have no doubt that once she arrives at The Bridge, her legs will no longer wibble and her bark will be as barky as ever. She will meet up with old friends (Maddison, Jessie & Flo to name but three) and she'll also meet Del & Tess and the others who went before her. She'll meet those who were not part of her family but who she knew of anyway. And she'll bark at them to keep them in line. Our appointment is at 3pm this afternoon and the vet and nurse will come out to our car to help Sally on her journey. Deerhounds Darcy, Duffy, Grace & Wellington, Mutts Sprout & Buddy, Lurchers Ned & Jake plus Ella the Westie + cats. Remembering Del, Jessie, Maddison, Flo, Sally, Stanley, Wallace, Radar, Mokka, Oki cat, Tetley, Poppy & Striker.

Much better earlier rather than too late and she's such a great old gal. Godspeed Sally! Say hi to Jim and Suze for me!
