Farewell to my best mate......

Sadly, we got the news on Tuesday that our dog, Zak had bone cancer. Zak had been limping for a while but after 2 x-rays nothing was found....bloods then finally revealed that he had an aggressive form of bone cancer and because of this form of bone cancer, we were told that he had somewhere between 2 and 4 weeks to live :-( We were also told that he was in incredible pain. A tumour had formed in his shoulder (which explained the limp). Zak was 13yrs old, and suffered from arthritis in his back legs. But when we learned that he was in such terrible pain, we had to do what was best for him. Sadly, that meant giving him wings and sending him to be with the angels. Zak was an incredible dog. Almost human-like. We are devastated at having to give him up and watch as our other dog (Elly) grieves very deeply for him. He was put to sleep gently in mine & Geoff's arms on Wednesday afternoon. We hope you rest so very peacefully my darling boy. Gone, but never, never fogotten.
