thank you all for your kind thoughts - totally agree, unless you're a dog person you probably won't understand how their passing can make you feel, we were very close, my Dad always said if he was looking for me, he'd call the dog as we were always together, my shadow - they're more than pets, they're members of the family
at the moment I can't even think of another dog, it would seem like I was trying to replace her, & my husbands adamant that he's not watching me distraught again when I've got to let them go - but who knows what the future brings

Sounds like Nell was as lucky to have you as you were to have her - the hardest decision in the world is the one you have just had to make, and having been there myself several times I can imagine exactly how you must be feeing right now. Cherish the memories - they'll never leave, and well done for being strong enough to make the best of decisions for a much loved friend right to the final moment.

Thinking of you, guys. I'm lighting a candle for Nell, Kim and Meg as well as my best buddy's little dog, Kiki who died a couple of days ago in a tragic accident. The hole they leave in your heart when they go is gaping and painful, but in time that hole is filled with more happy memories than sadness. Most of us posting here know how you feel. You're not alone...

Im so sorry to read your sad news, Ims and Jelboy, and sending you both big hugs.
We take our beloved cocker Jasper tin tenting with us, and I honestly cant imagine going without him. I never had a dog before, always considered myself a cat person, and I still dont know how I was talked into it! However he is so much a part of our family and a part of our holidays. And he absolutely loves it, gets all silly when we're packing the caravan to go away. Taking him along too makes my holiday as I miss him dreadfully when Im away from him, He is my shadow, and my company at home when Im not working, and he somehow 'knows' when Im ill or having a bad day (I have leukaemia) and insists on sitting next to me with his head on my shoulder.
Sending my love to you both.

My little Westie Senga loves camping too so I know how you must be feeling because I would be at a loss without her.
At least you have wonderful memories and I'm sure Nell would like you to continue camping. Next time you go dedicate some time to the memory of Nell that way she will still be with you.
Hugs

So sorry to hear about your loss Ims and Jelboy, {{{{{{{Big hugs}}}}}}} from me too.
Hope your memories are not too painful, and you smile whenever you think of them.
Hang in there too, anniemacxx , Some people say it's their pets that keep them going, sounds like yours is one in a million too!!!
