Patience Paddy


We sadly had to have Paddy, Richard's Collie x put to sleep on Weds 2nd Dec. He suddenly become very lethargic and bloated, an x-ray and ultrasound showed a very weak heart, free fluid and multiple tumours in his abdomen. He only became unwell on Tues 1st where he did not run as much as usual on his daily walk, on Weds he did not run at all and only just managed his walk. This was not usual Paddy behaviour. We did not want to put him through any degrading treatments which he would not understand or recover from so all we could humanely do was end his suffering. Both Richard and I are devastated by the loss of Paddy and Jack keeps looking for him to come home. He will be sadly missed.

We adopted Paddy from Many Tears Rescue in 2004 when he was approximatley 2 years old. Richard and Paddy had an understanding between them which allowed them to work as an amazing team in the early days of obedience training and later in agility. Paddy reached the dizzy heights of Grade 6 where he competed this year at the shows we attended. The last competition course Paddy ran was under Marie Hembrow at Gillingham. 

He was such a brave boy to hide his illness from us to the very end and we will be forever grateful to him for that.
