I've just had a heartbreaking phonecall from my mum lettin me know they have had to have Spike, our 15 year old GSD x Collie PTS.

Yesterday evening he was in the garden as normal when he suddenly went down and could not stand up. My Dad has seen his share of broken horse legs and knew straight away what had just happened and very carefully got Spike inside and comfortable and the vet was with them 1st thing this morning (they did consult with him last night too)
Spike had an agressive tumour that has weakened the bone and affectively caused the break and it was decided the kindest thing to do was to let him go.
Devastated, I knew he had started to decline but Spike was my confidont during those awkward teenage years, we used to walk for miles and miles and although a funny character he was my best mate then
So sad to know he's gone, and I've not seen him in months :(
RIP Spike
