Holly was born in a caravan in Scotland, being the cheekies of the litter we picked her.She was a black Labrador, 5 wks old. When we got her home we realized she had a skin condition – so the poor wee thing had to have her skin scraped. After that she was a lively wee dog, always cheeky and was never afraid of danger. As she grew older last year, she had a haematoma in her ear, after further surgery she had it drained and her ear shriveled up. She had a big ear and a smaller one – which gave her more character. Then yesterday, we noticed she wasn’t her self, when we took her to the vets it was too late – she died in the back of the car with a burst tumour. She was only 8.
We are devastated and our oldest dog Shane (border collie) who’s 12 is taking it really bad as they never spent a night apart. We just want to let holly know that we love her and miss her dearly. My mum, dad, wee brother and sister got to say goodbye but I never. So I want to say “good bye Holly, I love you forever. Your mummy and daddy, Shane, James, Nicola and me (Terri) love you and will never forget you. You will be with us soon in the presence of your ashes and they will take pride on the mantle piece of the living room. So you soon hollyhocks.
Love Terri xxxxxxx
Take care my wee Hollyhoks,
