This is Max, an eight year old jack russell cross (dunno what's he crossed with though!). Had him since he was a tiny six month pup. Rehomed him from the local cat and dog home after he escaped an abusive home and was found wandering. Still makes me angry now.

He developed a heart murmur six months ago and has been on medication for that and further medication for the side effects to the first lot. He's periodically had breathing problems but has always recovered okay. This morning we knew something was different and he got progressively more laboured until he passed away quietly this afternoon.
RIP little fella. He might have been small but he had a big personality and is going to leave a huge gap in our lives. Almost twelve years we've had him. Worse bit is I keep going looking for him; don't think it will sink in for a while.

Thanks for the sentiments, folks, means a lot. I've been reallly surprised how upset my friends and family have been to hear too - didn't appreciate how much he meant to everyone else too. As someone pointed out, he had a happy life after a s
tty start and we just have to be grateful we knew him. Doesn't make it much easier though and i'll miss him dearly - he's been with me through thick and thin. The only silver lining I can see is that it was natural - the idea of having to make the decision to get him put down has haunted me since he got ill. Kinda glad in a way that it happened like this in his own home.
Anyway, enough maudlin thoughts from me - don't want to derail the thread. Cheers again.
