Shadow chose us 5 years ago when we visited a rescue centre. We had
always had small dogs before and had never thought of owning a lurcher.
But he did us a favour choosing us and allowing us to be his family. He
had a wonderful temperament and was a delight to have in our home. He
had slowed up but, 3 months ago, after a spell with an upset stomach we
took him to see the vet. She gave him a couple of antibiotic injections
and he was our old Shadow again. We were so pleased. Our daughter
visited on Friday and exclaimed at his weight loss. He had gone off his
food so back to the vets he went. She had him in as surgery was
necessary. When she opened him up he was found to be full of a
particularly invasive cancer, so he was not allowed to come round. Of
course we had no idea he was so very ill.
But what a shock it was to us. We adored that dog. He is buried under
his tree so he can still keep an eye out for the squirrels! He's like
Maude. He hated them.
