I had to have my dear old German Shepherd down 6 months ago today.
It broke my heart, but I knew I had done the right thing.
She was the most annoying puppy - chewed everything in sight - became an adolescent puppy, and challenged me right and left.
She then became the most wonderful dog any-one could meet.
She guarded my children - she guarded me. She would put herself in front of anyone who approached that she saw as "suspicious". Not in a nasty way, just enough to show them .
I have cried today.
I miss her companionship - I miss her trust - I miss her!
