So sorry, he looked to be a fun companion.
Sorry for your loss - great photos and memories
Ah no - best wishes
Arse. Sorry for you mate.
Sorry for your loss. Remember the good times.
Sorry for your loss.
“We still meet once in a while, when I close my eyes...” by Steve Sanderson.
Sad news, hope you feel ok.
He looks like a very happy fella.
All the best.
Ah bugger hardest part of owning a dog.
Remember the good times....
Sad news. Best wishes.
He looks like he was a lovely dog. So sorry for you.
A lovely dog, and looks like he had the best of lives, always remember that.
Aw, so sorry to read this, gorgeous pics.
Echo above, looks like he wanted for nothing, had all the outdoors he could want and loved/was loved. Focus in that. Feel for you.
Massive man hug for you. He was loved and lived well. Thats a great thing to do for a fab creature.
Great pics.
i remember burying a cat in my grandfathers garden a decade or so ago, whilst making the hole, I uncovered some bones, my grandad said ‘ aye there must be 30 cats in there’
he’d been there 76 years, since he was 14.
been many dogs too of course, working farms have a constant stream of dogs coming and going.
when i think back, it’s easy to remember the good times, hopefully you can do the same bud.
Had one as a kid he lived till a ripe 19, this one curled up on the sofa next to me at 3 makes me smile a lot, even with his other dog hating ways. I dread the day he's not here anymore. Sorry for your loss, love his second pic 👍
Handsome boy. So sorry for your loss.
Thanks all.
It was a weird one, as I was away riding the BHF Peaks Challenge and my wife took him to the vets for a stomach issue that turned out to be (obviously) pretty serious for a 12 1/2 year old dog. Odd feeling now saying goodbye to him as I left this morning not knowing it was a permanent one...
Sadness. 😢
Thank you for sharing the photos, they're lovely.
Take care.
I’m not a dog person but those pics almost make me want to be; looks a friendly chap.
Sorry for your loss
I've never met a bad dog but some just have something special about them and he looks like one of those. I've always been there at the end for mine, heartbreaking but glad to comfort them in the final minutes. Must have been doubly hard to come back to that news.
Very sad but I bet he had a really good life with you. Still think about my previous dogs quite often as you get so close to them,
Condolences from us all, colournoise.
@mattbee - I've got the three Steve Sanderson prints in that series - I consider it a trilogy.
So sorry op. We had to do the same with our lovely Newfoundland last week.
Great photos, sorry for your loss.
Sorry to hear of your sad loss OP. You have posted some smashing photo's of your fella there, especially the photo of him shaking himself off on the wet sand, it's a truly fabulous shot!
Well done on giving him a great life.
@househusband- so have I, along with a few others. He’s just finished the 4th & final in the series which is possibly the saddest but loveliest of the lot.

@mattbee Thanks for that; will order!.

It's simply heartbreaking putting your four legged mates to sleep. Been 6 months since we had our 13 year old Lab put down. His ashes are still in the lounge. Still miss his over enthusiastic welcome even if I'd been out for 5 minutes.
Big man hugs.
I feel for you. Our beloved 20 years old cat woke us up yowling in the night last night, unable to pass much urine but leaving blood wherever she sat; clearly in pain and distressed. She's currently zonked out on our bed full of painkillers and antibiotics in the hope that it's a uti but the vet feels that bladder cancer is a big possibility due to her age.
It's hard to describe how much we love them and what a loss they are when they go.
Sad times. A very cute doggo that looks like a happy chappy. thanks for sharing.
Lost my ten year old patterdale to cancer a few months back just remember the good times.
Springers are great dogs ....
I have had two ....
Not sure the process of losing them make me want to have a 3rd ....
Sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss.
Always had Dog's as a kid - hardest part is saying good bye.
Oh man....I wish I hadn't opened this thread, making me even more depressed! Really sorry for your loss...looked like a great dog! My in-laws lost their B/W Springer about a year ago now and they are still mourning him. 🙁
