Arthur goes to his day care place if we are away and can't take him with us. It's a nice house with big grounds and they treat him as one of their own. He's usually in there a couple of times a week anyway, they have a max of 8 dogs, he's the largest. He's allowed everywhere, but seeing as he doesn't sleep upstairs here they don't let him either.

Couldn't stick him in kennels. Locked up and 1 walk a day.

Brought Ted down to the dog park to see how he got on with other dogs.
Not a bother on him. Well adjusted.
We’re minding him for a week in July.

It's heartbreaking when it happens, it really. People that have never had pets will have a job understanding the intense grief when it happens. I don't know if Oban had been poorly. But hopefully he's at peace now. My thoughts are with all the Kippax family at this horrific time.

Cheers pal.
No he was fit and well but had been on the beach digging and swimming.
We found out 24 hours later he went off his food and water so got him to a vets in Dunoon.
They told us his heart rate was sky high, he was very dehydrated and had high temperature.
They rang us back a few hours later to tell us no change to medication they gave him but also they knew some kind of blockage in his intestines.
After an Xray they rang to confirm that its was probably a ball of sand and water mixture that had solidified and stuck there.
He deteriorated rapidly and Luke the vet said he wasn't well enough to operate on, that he wouldn't of made it.
So at 10 o clock on our last night we had to give permission for him to let him go.
Something so simple of him playing around on the beach has ended up taking him from us.
I was giving both my Shepherds bottled water in their bowls at the car so they wouldn't drink sea water, but can't stop thinking have I contributed in some way.
But like Mrs K says Cassie our bitch is OK it was just a freak occurance to him digging a big hole in the sand for him to bury his stick and he took too much sand on board.
A shit ending for such a big fit dog.

That's tough. It'd be nearly easier to take if he'd been ill. Dogs do unfortunately have a habit of "eating" any old crap they find. He was a handsome so and so, wasn't he? How old was he, if you don't mind me asking?

How's "Cassie" coping without her friend around?
