I'm being sentimental, it'll pass.
A little over thirteen years ago on Valentine's Day, I collected a small Schnauzer who was later named Stella. I picked her up from the breeders, popped her on the front seat of the van already worrying about how she would feel being seperated from her sister and her Mum. She sat. She looked up at me. Gave me a look that said, yeah, this'll do. Curled up and went to sleep. That was pretty much how she was for her life, easy -going. Nothing much phased her and she just ambled through life being affectionate and unobtrusive.
Some of you may be aware she had Spindle Cell Carcinoma back in 2011, big op, fine for a few years, then it came back and she's been kept comfortable since.
She was a bit off colour on Tuesday, but nothing worrying, Wednesday she seemed to be rather listless, took her to the vet and she was running a temperature and had some antibiotics and electrolytes. Her condition deteriorated and she went into shock and the kindest thing was to let her go.
Here she is acting as a chin rest for her half sister

Still walking, different path
