Today is the first time since starting this blog that I am not writing it with a dog laying at my feet under the desk, for yesterday I took Jake the Golden Retriever to the vet for the last time, his nasal tumour and the infection that took over it finally won the battle for his life and we had him put to sleep.

May you find comfort in that Jake no longer suffers. A silent member in a household can leave an enormous gap.
I’ve missed him awfully today, he and I spent a lot of time together with me working from home and I’m so used to having him under my feet. literally. I’ve been home alone again today and every time I go from room to room I find myself looking for him, this is going to take some getting used to.
