Re: Poor Bisto
Bisto is to be put to sleep tomorrow at 4pm She had further tests and her liver is compromised, her pancreas is in a bad way and she has a chest infection which is making her breathing so laboured. She has jaundice too. The vet has her comfy and in no pain but he's said she's just failing now. My van is in the garage first thing so i'll be going over once its sorted & we'll take mums little Jack Russell with us so she can see Bisto.

Re: Poor Bisto
We are indeed.. Mother is so upset but very realistic and knows there's nothing that can be done to repair Bisto. Shes decided to leave her at the vets after too (something I just couldn't do & im struggling with it over Bisto too). Her reasons are practical to a degree and as her rear garden isnt completely enclosed the dogs only go in the patio and lower end where its decked. So Bisto never played up the top where a grave could be dug and it'd mean nothing to her. I suggested to mother that it might be nice for her to know Bisto is home but as she pointed out she'll not be alive forever either and then if I sell the house Bisto would be alone with strangers God its so sad when you thing about things too sensibly sometimes. I wish i'd inherited mothers straightness and not the soppy sentimental whimp I have the tendancy to be lol I'd want my dog near me dead or alive! But its her choice and I was very worried about the logistics of moving her body with my back and digging a grave was just not going to happen... So perhaps its best as it'll be.

Re: Poor Bisto
Bisto went to sleep quietly at 4pm It was liver cancer.Mum's sad but ok and im pretty much the same now. Bisto is going to be cremated. Thanks to all who followed this thread and supported us through the rapid loss of a very special dog..
