well a month has past since reu had his bad weekend and hes still going strong , the lump has got bigger and tends to weep a bit now , but other than that hes doing really well , still eating and going for his walkies and generally enjoying life .

I am so pleased, he is obviously a real fighter, I remember when it was touch and go for a while.

Don't you dare stop giving us our Reuben Fix though will you Wink

Hi all , not been on for a while , been busy caring for reubin a looking for my lost cat ( who iv still not found ) . yesterday was a horrible day for me , i had to have reubin put to sleep , he had totally gone off his food and was really skinny , his tumour was huge and was leaking fluid alot . the tumour started to affect his circulation and his leg started to swell up making it very difficult to walk , he tired so easily and to top it all i found another tumour up underneath his back legs ,that was huge too . he had no quality of life left so i had to let him go . so hes running free again and free of pain and with his mates . hes left a huge stamp on my heart and he`ll never be forgotten . he was so special and loving and i miss him loads . iv been thinking about writing this all day and it is as hard as i thought it would be , tears are running down my face as im typing . my friend wrote a lovely poem about him ,it made me laugh and cry at the same time . thought you guys might like to read it , so its below

reubin you will be sorely missed , these are a few words to show how much .
you truely were such a lovely chap ,
i miss your cuddles on my lap ,
half golden retriever half saluki ,
were the secrets behind your beauty ,
you always brought laughter and happiness to all ,
when you`d rather be in on the gossip than chasing a ball ,
none of your toys were really your thing ,
you would prefer a cushion to sink your teeth in ,
or maybe a game of hide and seek in cockington park ,
hiding yourself behind a tree from your mom was a lark ,
all the memories of your fantastic life will go on and on ,
there is a big gap for us now your gone ,
but let me say thankyou for the laughter and smiles ,
you were a true gentleman the only one for miles ,
you made me smile as you were never in a rush ,
i will meet you up there one day and i will remember my brush !

I am so so sorry, what a wonderful tribute to a gorgeous and much loved dog, please stay in touch, if you need to rant or talk, we're here for you.

They're a very special gift; to be cherished and loved
You're chosen for each other; by God Himself above
It's a match made in heaven; so it can't be wrong
You're tied together by a bond; that's oh so strong
All they'll ever ask from you; is to be loved and fed
And at night make sure they have, fresh water and a bed
In return for so little; the rewards are so great
You'll get a companion for life; with some very special traits
When you are lost; and the end seems so far away
They'll walk by your side; they'll help you find your way
When life gets you down; they can put a smile on your face
As they run you in circles; with their fast pace
You'll share the good with the bad; you'll be happy and sad
And through it all you have a friend; the best you ever had
You're time together; will be special and unique
It will be as priceless to you; as a rare antique
Then before you know it; the day will arrive
When suddenly your life; takes a steep dive
The furry friend who's been with you for all of these years
Has now passed on; and left you in tears
As you sit and wonder; what did I do
Why is this all happening to you
Into each of our lives; a little rain must fall
And you must be strong; to answer the call
Your little one's spirit has flown home on the wings of a dove
To a special place that awaits them; in heaven above
St. Francis will meet them; when they get home
He will take them to a meadow; where they're free to roam
There in the meadows; down by the pond
Your furry friend will remember his loving bond
He'll look into the water; then you apppear
He can see you're frightened; he can feel your fear
Through the bond that still ties you; from heaven above
He looks down upon you; he sends you his love
Because you loved him; and because you care
Whenever you need him; he'll always be there
There in the meadows; they patiently wait for the day
When you will celebrate your life together; each and everyday
Waiting for that day; when you come walking back home
When together for an eternity; through the meadows you'll roam.

thankyou all for your kind words , littlelab you`ve made me cry twice in the last five minutes , what beautiful poems . rizbo his mate is missing him too, as time went on he would protect reu if any dogs were bothering him , he would stand with his head over reus back growling at them to go away , if they didnt listen he would shout at them ! he was loved and is now missed by alot of people as he was such a special boy , so loving and friendly . it is hard but iv got alot of good friends who are helping me through the pain .
