Hi,

I just want to take this time to thank everyone for taking the time to respond to my questions. Mctavish (age 16) was put down this evening and I felt very much at peace because I knew that he was very loved by all of us and I felt comfortable with my decision mostly because of your informative responses and you care towards shelties. Thank you :)

Also, the vet confirmed that his circling was more than likely caused by brain lesions. She also told me that it was a good time to put him down.

I will miss my Mctavish forever. He was an amazing dog and I'm sure one day I'll have another sheltie.

Again, thank you to everyone. You helped me more than you'll ever know. This is a fantastic support group and I'm sorry it took me so long to find it.

Warm regards,

Sandra
 
Your gift of love gave him restored health at the Bridge. 16years - a good long life.
 
Hi Sandra,

I've been watching your posts and thinking about you and your daughter. I'm so sorry that you had to say goodbye to Mctavish - but I'm so glad that you let him go at the right time, and that you feel comfortable with your decision.

He had a wonderful life, and I can tell from your posts that he was loved and adored for every moment of it.

So sorry to hear of your loss. It sounds like he had a long and wonderful life with his loving family who knew to let him go. Hugs to you.
 
What a wonderful life you gave your beloved McTavish! He was truly a special dog. It's hard to lose one you've had in your life so very long. My Neechee was 17 when I had to make that awful trip to the vet the day after Easter 2010. And I still miss him painfully every day. You'll have other dogs - I do - and you'll love them every bit as much, but some you'll miss for the rest of your life.

It will be especially hard for your daughter, I know, since she's never known life without him. Just know that there are people out here who know exactly what you're going through, and have been through it themselves.

Don't stay dogless for too long, and I pray that the healing process will continue for you and your family.
 
I am very sorry about the loss of your precious Mctavish. I hope that time will heal your pain, and you will remember all the many many years of good times.
