R.I.P. Duke..

Our faithful friend and companion passed away last night.. he was our son's dog but never left home when he did..He was 15 years old and was suffering with arthritis but being a typical Lab he was always there when a food was getting dished out.. his favourite treat was an apple or avocado ... so he did know what was good for him.. sleep peacefully now Dukky Dog...

Oh so sad Julia, we lost our beloved Lab Oscar a few year ago so I know how you must be feeling, he is pain free now. xx

So sorry for your loss! What a sweet looking dog.
