Thank you so much to everyone for your support, it's been comforting to read everyones comments. It just feels unfair that we only got to spend two months with him, but as you've stated he was indeed loved greatly. We're hoping to come up next weekend, or even before, we were going to come tomorrow but I have rehearsals all day. Hope to see some of you there. Thanks again to everyone, it really means a lot to me xxxx

Amy and family. I really cant believe this has happened to Alfie. My heart breaks for you. You and your Mum waited so long to have a grey and having found Alfie your life was complete. It seems so wrong that he only enjoyed his retirement for a couple of months. You must console yourself by knowing he had a fantastic couple of months with you, most probably the best 2 months of his life. He truly was loved to bits. He is now at Rainbow Bridge running free from pain. Until you meet again. All my love I am thinking of you with tears running down my face. So very very sorry Pam xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Amy, I'm so sorry and my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this horrible time. Beautiful Alfie is free from pain now, and you should be proud of yourself that you gave him such a fantastic loving home for his short retirement. Em xxx

Ha ha Em - you only get this treatment if you are 4 legged and furry! The two legged type have to fend for themselves (just ask poor Robbie!!!!!!)

Dear Amy, I am so sorry to hear that his life has ended so soon after only a few months enjoying life as part of your family. I know how broken hearted you will be and my thoughts are with you. Run free at Rainbow Bridge special boy xxx

Alfie was put to sleep late in the afternoon. I am absolutely devastated and can not believe what has happened. I can''t think of what life is going to be without him, we only had him just over two months and it doesn't seem fair that he isn't with us anymore. I wished he could have the treatment, but the chance of it working properly was only around 30% and I know Alfie wouldn't have liked to live in the conditions he would have been in. It just wouldn't have been an enjoyable life for him. I'm missing him greatly already and it just feels so wrong. Thanks for everyones support, we appreciate it greatly and we're hoping to come back up to the kennels soon. Thanks again everyone xxxx

Hi Amy, me again. I have had a McTimoney animal chiropractor highly recommended to me. I have not used her myself but fully intend to with my two. She specialises in dogs and her name is Paula Stokes and she is based in Redditch - if you google her you'll find her, if not give me a shout...
