Louise The Poodle RIP
We have left Cedars Fields about a month ago, settled on a new place 200 kms north, on the edge of a locally imposing mountain, next to state forest and national park. The area is beautiful. While our bigger dogs stayed at the kennels, Louise our now 17 year old poodle stayed with us in the caravan. It was hot, she dehydrated, and like Edwina our old Siamese some years ago, went quickly downhill. We had to put her down last Monday. She seemed on the brink of recovery but her last night was clearly in pain, so we did what we didnt want to do. What killed us, to do. All who knew her cried, many like little kids. She was that kind of dog. So, sadly she didnt get to know this new place that well, though she did have a few explores. We picked a sunny spot in a field overlooking the valley and close to the house. We can see her cairn of stones every day. Goodbye dearest pet. Say hi to Bandit, Panda and Edwina in heaven. Bandit will introduce you to Milo. xxxx

Hi Amplitur,
So very sorry to hear about Louise. The love a dog gives you is so unconditional the and hollow space left behind when they leave us is so hard to fill. Still, all of you, including Louise, had a better time on this Earth because of the times you shared.
Patch, a very belated Thank You. I don't know how I missed the notification of your comment. For over a year! But yes she was a grand old 17 or 18 year old. Clearly ancient, but full of life right up to the end. We are glad she shared our caravan trip through Queensland together in her last year. We know she enjoyed it. Cheers
