While I was on one of my camping trips five years ago, my partner phoned me to inform me that my 16 year old border collie had died. I was well gutted. After a few minutes thinking I phoned her back to say, bring him up to the woods and I will bury him next to my camp. Took some doing as he was a big dog. He's sleeping just to the left of my shelter.

Grand spot for him. My last dog is in a box on the shelf with me now.

After losing my boy in January that just bought a tear to my eye....,a fantastic place for your collie to rest.

Here's my hairball; Oscar. Labrador cross, with a retriever, we think.

Walked into our garden back in October 2004 and decided to stay on, this despite my best efforts to find his true owner. Happy to say having him with us for those years changed mine and Alison's lives for the better. Sadly he had to be put to sleep this January due to internal hemorrhaging after a nagging illness finally got the better of him.

The times I'd chuckle at the way he'd just flop on his bed like this. He had no shame! :lmao:



Here he is in the garden in a more dignified pose.



Good thread, but sorta bitter sweet too.

There are some great pictures in this thread, but that one is magic!

My Springer Molly is now turning six yrs. old, and as steady a spaniel as I've ever known but until I thought about a photo of her asleep I'd never thought about it, but I've realised that I've never seen her asleep in the daytime, not once!

Love this photo!

I've had a couple of greyhounds, they are some of the most wonderful loving breeds of dogs and so appreciative of their new lives if they are retired racers. A fantastic breed :)

Thanks guys, and you have absolutely nailed the breed with your description swotty, they are both rescued track dogs, and the brindle (dog) is the most loving dog i have ever come across.
