RIP Dear Cal

Sad to see that Cal, puppy Nick from our Xmas litter of 2013 has left us today. It's 12 months since Arthur messaged to say he had a tumour and that he didn't think he'd be around for very long, I guess he was blessed to have him the extra year, though I doubt he'll get any pleasure from that today. To Arthur, Cal was everything; he often described him as "the best dog ever!" 
Cal looking so like Ziva, his mum here, as he always did!

The realisation that Sammi is the only one left of the "I" litter hits hard tonight. It brings things into perspective, doesn't it? I know she's old, I know time is running out, but I totally refuse to let that overshadow the precious time I still have with her, life is for living and loving.
