No more dogs

The end of an era has come. On Friday we said goodbye to our last dog Nitro. He was almost 17 years old. I miss him but sort of not since he was blind and used to poo in the house if we didn't get him outside quick enough. I can go to the loo by myself without a dog escort now. I can go for a walk on the beach without hearing him bark the whole time I am gone. He was faithful to the absolute last. It's hard when its one you bred yourself. RIP Nitro.

    :(  I am SO sorry for your loss, Brenda - Schnausers are the most amazing dogs out there!!  If I EVER got a dog again - that's the one I would go for.

    Incredibly intelligent, gentle, loyal - and they don't shed hair!

    Thinking of you  xxxx

    Sorry to hear about Nitro. We have two Schnauzers getting on in years, I hate to think about the time when they are no longer here!

    Am so sad @Brenda5 for you and your family. We too have a Schnauzer getting on in years - our beloved Harry - the best companion anyone could ever wish for. Having had a dog my entire life I dread the day we have to make the decision you have made to no longer have a canine friend. XO

    Sounds like Nitro was so well-loved @Brenda5 and he was lucky to have you as his human.  May he rest in peace.
    Also, Nitro is an awesome name for a dog! Much love xx

    So sad when they go.  We just had to say goodbye to our 18yr old Chihauhau. Very difficult when they've been part of the family for so long.  RIP Nitro.  xoxoxo
