Sorry to hear this Tiger. We had to make that call 3 years and 2 months ago, so know first hand how truly crap it feels. It sounds like you did right by him for 14 years though, and did right by him today. You've got a lot of happy memories of him, cling on to them.

Good night Magnetodog and take it easy Tiger.

Cat person here, but I am sorry to hear that - he had such a lovely softie look about him and made me smile more than any sanctimonious cat ever did.

Night MD, best member on here 🙂

Just locked the back door, nobody to let out, nobody to have final one sided chat with before switching the kitchen lights off.

😥

Nice portrait.

You really should stick a magnet behind the canvas so you can occasionally stick a spoon to him from time to time.

Really like that painting 8) Is the person that did it a professional that does it for a living?

Just asking as we had to have our black lab put down last week and something like that might make a good present for the missus.

That canvas looks stunning.

Although it's often hard for an artist to capture a pets character, only you as the owner can be the judge of that. Hopefully he has.

Similarly, we had a cracking piece commissioned a couple of years ago, hand burned onto a slab of sycamore and mounted onto the wall.

I'll try and embed below.

Oh man. 🙁

Mine aren't one sided...she speaks back to me in a high pitched human voice, although it does seem to be my lips that are moving. 😆

Anyway, great portrait. Has the artist got a website? Might drum up a bit of business from here for him/her.

Our one talks to my wife when we're in the park using a similar technique. And then she realises we're not at home, are in the middle of a conversation with some other dog owners and blushes.

So every ending sparks a new beginning

Nearly a year ago we said goodbye to Murphy (Magnetodog)

This weekend we said hello to these 2. Both rescues that came as an inseparable pair.

They seem to be settling in fine

Neither are magnetic though.

Thank you so much for adopting a rescue.

They look a smashing pair and I'm sure they'll bring you lots of fun and giggles.

Magnetodog would certainly approve!

Anybody know whats a decent Pet Insurance nowadays? We used to use E&L and were a bit underwhelmed by them. Can you get multicar(dog) discount?

We use Pet plan and they have been great to deal with. We’ve put a few big claims their way and had no issues. Also if it’s a pet plan approved vet they can pay them directly so you don’t have to fork out and claim back.

Love the two two new additions!!

Not yet but I'm sure given a bit more of the family love they will be 😀

Ha a spaniel and a lab..  Good luck!!
