Tried to upload an old photo but couldn't...imagine a Spaniel with long legs, long fur and a boy band hair do, that's Henry.....
Anyway, had to say goodbye to Henry last thursday and all extremely sudden....7.00 fed and out with the others along the river, no problems just his normal self, came back and I went off to work. 9.00 Wife phoned me to ask me to keep an eye on Henry as he wasn't acting himself. 10.30 came back and couldn't open the door so pushed and there was Henry slumped by the door, I grabbed a blanket to take him to the car and vets and whilst I was rolling him on to it he took his last breath...all very sudden. Vets reckoned internal bleeding or a stroke as his gums and tongue were white. He was 11, a spaniel / Spanish hunting dog cross and a bit of a twat !!!. We'd had him since he was about 4 weeks old when we lived in Spain, covered in ticks and was given to us by a Spanish farmer up the track who was going to shoot him, we already had 3 so I reckoned we could find room for another !!. He's now in a little wooden box with his name on a plaque next to Charlie.
