Farewell Sweet Shela.

I have some very sad news to tell you, on Sunday night Shela jumped off the sofa when I shouted from the back door for Shela and Cody to go out in the yard and somehow Shela fractured her front left leg around the elbow. She was X-rayed on Monday morning. It would have meant Shela having an expensive difficult operation and her owner Tim decided against this.Her hips and joints have been arthritic for a few years now and it would have been hard for her. I've had Shela with me over a year now at home since Tim has been in and out of hospital. She was only 10 and a half and if you add it all up she's been in my care off and on for two years altogether. The last time I saw her was when I left her at the vets yesterday pm for her X-ray and Tim rang me after she had been put to sleep. I would have liked to say goodbye to her properly but I can't do anything about that now. She was the sweetest girl in the whole wide world. Still in shock over it all.
