You have my condolences. RIP Benji

It is such a tough decision to make.  The loss does get easier with time but still threads like this make me have to swallow that lump in my throat and do that quick blinking thing (!) as it brings back memories of saying goodbye to my pal too.  And it was four and a half years ago. 

Never forgotten.

 Sadly I have to tell all those of you who know us that our little dog Benji has died,he

 took ill during the night of 23 Feb while we were in the van on site at Braemar we

rushed him to the vets in Aberdeen on Wed morning leaving the van on site in the care of the wardens,Benji turned out to have cancer and we took the decision to have him put to sleep rather than see or have him suffer so he passed away yesterday our lives seem empty and pointless at the moment and the house is empty without him,I hope it gets better with time.I would like to thank the Wardens for their help and understanding in this difficult time and the vets staff for their kindness.RIP wee man.


He was a very lucky dog to have had such loving owners & I'm sorry you lost him, I hope he's up there playing with the best friend I lost a few years ago.

So sorry to hear this.  It's the day we all dread that we have to make that awful decision for our friends.

We've said 'no more' in the past too but now we know there'll always be more because we just can't do without the fun, love & companionship over the years they're with us.

Run happy & free at the Bridge little Benji x

I'm so sorry to hear about Benji.I know how you are feeling as we had to put our little dog to sleep last year age 18years.I couldn't stop crying at first but time has helped.We also bought a puppy after four months and she has helped to fill the void in our lives.I felt guilty at first and found it difficult to bond with her but she has crept into our hearts and we love her to bits

So sorry to hear of your loss, it's been 2 years since I lost my pal and though you don't think it now, time does heal.


I thought of this poem when I lost Holly and I now know how true it is.........

When I can look at your picture and not cry,
it's the day I can lock your memory, safe, in my heart and say goodbye.
