You have our deepest sympathy. Lost our Border Collie last Monday,He was 16 1/2,still on a guilt trip about taking him on His final trip to the vets,but it had to be done.Blubbing like a baby for 3 days,house is empty and dead.Bought Him home and He's in the back garden now. The same garden He ran around like a maniac in His younger days.

He loved coming away with us,knew when we were getting ready to go,used to sit waiting patiently whilst we hooked up.Never forgot a dog walk,dont know how we'll cope without him.The only time He didnt come with us is when we go to France in the summer .When we got home He would greet us and then sulk like a trrooper for 2 or 3 days.

Our initial thought was not to have another,but I think we will SHMBO has told me so.

He enjoyed many camping and caravan trips which were mainly centred around him.

My problem now is that I can't imagine going away in the van without him.

I would love to know of some none doggy things we can do when we go away. Usually we would all go walking or to the beach.

Hi Boston600 We also lost our Parson Jack Russell Terrier he was 15 years + on Saturday 25th January he died in his sleep.
We brought another he is a Parson Jack Russell Short Leg a red and white male pup , he been with us less then 48hrs i think you find it will ease your pain
Our old dog was called Sam (So the new dog name is Sammy)
But i hope you decide what we found we had to do ..
