Labrador Rescue

Sad news - when we woke up on Christmas morning Bailey was very unwell, not moving from his bed and very shallow breathing. He had surgery on his foot in October which turned out to be melanoma and we had been warned that it could spread to the lungs. He had been quite well but with a cough in the mornings but suddenly it had become so bad. We took him to the vet and the decision was taken to let him rest. It all happened so quickly but very peacefully. We are so grateful that we had him, he was a beautiful chocolate, wonderful coat and loving nature. Alfie seems to be coping without him - how do we know? - but he has been a worry too as he has had to come off Loxicom which made him very poorly - he was on I/V fluids for 48 hours because of dehydration a few weeks ago.

Christmas is not a good time for our dogs - our previous black Lab, Potter, had a heart attack on Christmas Day and died a few weeks later.

Hope you all had a good Christmas! We did in parts as we had our son, daughter-in-law and delightful 4 year old grand-daughter with us.

Love to you all and your Labs!

Nigh Night Beautiful Bailey xx

Oh dear Jenny, how very sorry to read that your beloved Bailey has gone to the rainbow bridge. Thinking of you at this sad time.

Run free at the bridge dear Bailey knowing you were loved.

I'm so sorry to read that you have had to say goodbye to your boy Bailey, I had a look back and found a little picture of him that you had posted, he was indeed a beautiful chocolate!
Thinking of you all, sleep tight Bailey
Glad to hear that Alfie is a little perkier bless him,
