Finnan the naughty dog

Saying goodbye to our Schnauzers is the hardest part. Share your memories here as we bid farewell to our beloved friends. They've crossed the bridge and returned to the meadow in full health and free of injuries. Running free. We won't forget.

Finnan the naughty dog

Post by Maty »

Just had the news that my sisters beautiful, but naughty, Westie has had to be PTS this morning.

She was 13 years old and had been suffering from pancreatitis since January and had been losing weight ever since. She started to go down hill last weekend and was taken to the vets on Monday when they discovered her lymph nodes were swollen and she was full of fluid. They ran tests and the results came through yesterday, obviously not good.

She was the most beautiful looking dogs but has always been the naughtiest dog we have ever had, could bark at things you had no control over until she made herself sick, but she was such a character and so well loved by all of us. She tolerated Rodders, but only just, and made sure that she came up to sit on my knee when I visited as she knew he would never jump up on the sofa!

I will be giving Rodders an extra hug today.

She did eventually answer the phone yesterday, said it had been a sh1t weekend and wanted to talk about Rodders and my big sister's birthday next week. That's fine, she will talk about it if and when she wants to. Just wanted to speak to her really!

Pleased to hear that you were able to get in touch with her Kate - she doesn't need to tell you how she feels as you already know, it's just reassuring to know she is ok. As you say, when she is feeling a bit stronger then I'm sure she will feel able to talk to you more - sometimes it's harder to talk about something like losing your dog with people who you know care about you, makes you more tearful :(
