It has been almost 6 weeks since we had to put down out beloved, handsome 12 year old Scout due to cancer. It was so sudden, he was such a happy healthy Sheltie until mid June when he started losing his appetite - and that was no small feat for Scout@!!! The first few weeks were really rough - I kept looking for him on his favorite spots & listening for him to scratch on the sliding door to be let back in the house. But he is happy & pain free now - jumping and playing with his feline pals that crossed the rainbow bridge before him. I still miss him everyday and though I am now ready to welcome another Sheltie into our family, Scout will always have a piece as well as a place in my heart. I need to sign off now as I am starting to tear up. Farewell my friend, you were the best and well loved!!!! You are in a better place now and I will always miss you!
He's in a better place and free of pain. May he be welcomed at the bridge with happy barks from all the rest of the sheltie angels as he waits for you to come for him.
