I gave you the name of Tease tho some would think that is a strange name to give, but thats what you were for me a little tease with your stunning blue eyes and your beautiful makings and colour. You were not long for this world but in the short time that we had we had fun playing tug-a-war and chase the ball you even got to growl and bark at the sheep and cattle as they went past the house and you loved to give your sister hell and would even tell the big dogs off lol not that they listened but they were always gentle with you and the same for the bigger pups not once did i have to tell them to leave you alone it was always the other way around for you had so much heart it's just a shame that your heart could not keep up with you.
Goodbye Tease i will miss you and i will always remember you, you have left some broken hearts behind.
Tease passed away last night at 8pm her little heart gave out.

So sorry to hear about Tease royalla, my eyes got watery & I didn't even know her, doesn't seem to matter how long or short they're with us they leave a huge hole. You would have given Tease the best in her short life & she would have loved every second of it.

This is so sad. It's been on my mind for hours, but I couldn't work out what to say. Sorry Royalla and Mushoz, you must be devastated.

So sorry Royalla, its a bumpy road we travel with animals but fortunately the highs are far more often than the lows, but we still can't dodge them.
Did I miss something? Had she been unwell, or was it sudden??

Royalla I am so sorry to hear about Tease. Losing a young dog is so much harder I believe. I thought of the below story and little poem as soon as I read the news. So sorry wish I was there to give you a hug.


A Dog's Purpose (from a 6-year old).

Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolf hound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle

I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn't do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.

As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience.

The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away.

The little boy seemed to accept Belker's transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker's Death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives. Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, 'I know why.'

Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation.

He said, 'People are born so that they can learn how to live a good Life - - like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?' The Six-year-old continued, 'Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long.'

Live simply.

Love generously.

Care deeply.

Speak kindly.

Remember, if a dog was the teacher you would learn things like:

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.

Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.

Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure Ecstasy.

Take naps.

Stretch before rising.

Run, romp, and play daily.

Thrive on attention and let people touch you.

Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.

On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.

On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.

When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.

Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.

Be loyal.

Never pretend to be something you're not.

If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.

When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently.

A special little soul, one who touched me when I first saw her pics that Mushoz put up. It's hard enough to lose them when they're older but a young life is so much harder. I'm blubbering now - hugs to you and the koolie kids.

Oh Ceejay...what a lovely statement, and so true.
Hugs for you Royalla, just from talking to you I know how much your dogs mean to you.

Hi Sil Tease was born with a heart mummer about a grade 3-4 but Snowview did not find out about it until a couple of days before she was due to come up to me and as she was already booked and paid for on dog-movers i said she could still come and live with me until her time was up but i did not think it was going to be this soon Tease had not shown any signs of being unwell until Sunday morning she had chest pain and was having problems breathing for 5 hrs and there was no vets open then she came good and acted like nothing had happened, my vet was away on Monday so i booked tease in to see him on tuesday morning but monday night about 5 minutes after she had her tea it happened again and this time it was even worse and i could not pick her up to move her as it caused her even more breathing problems and pain and as it was after hours again that meant no vet so i just stayed with her until the end

I'm so sorry to hear about this. Oh, the poor little thing, I liked her in the pic's as well. Sorry you had to go through it Royalla.

So sorry to hear of your loss,i know how you must be feeling, but thank goodness the dear little thing didn't have a long unwell period.

Yes it was quite a shock to us when Craig took them for their vet check etc to have the vet phone me personally at home to say there was a substantial problem as I missed it & as the vet said as she got older it would become more pronouced not overly obvious when very small & being busy I just missed it.

I take my hat off to Royalla to be hell bent to take her knowing the inevitable would come at anytime I'm just happy she got a good look at the world & was able to have a great life although short. I'm glad that she showed minimal signs until the end & could run & play with the others....but Craig & I shed many tears when the news came in she had gone as losing a baby is always hard for us.

Its a good lesson too....to get your babies thoroughly vet checked early especially with prospect workers, I left it too long this time & it bit me in the bum as I should have discovered it before it was bluntly obvious.

Oh, I just found this :-( I wondered why I hadn't seen any pics of her recently. So sorry to hear of her passing so young, I didn't realise her heart was that bad...

thats ok penny i always miss things down here to, i still miss that little bugger very much but her sister ren fills in tease's spot ren is double the trouble lol
