2 Wheels Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 This is my best Friend. Given to me when he was just 6weeks old, I carried him home and put him down at the corner of the house where he stayed for 2days shivering with fear. 16 years went by where he seldom left my side almost every day. Everyone that met him grew to like him as he was a real character. Sadly a few days ago he passed away. I miss him very much. I hope he rests easy and is gone to a nice place. If you are a dog lover then you will understand this post. Why did I post him on here.........I dont know, I guess sharing is careing. As this is a motorbike forum, ill try to give him some status. He had a one hearted, big chested, air and water-cooled engine He had 4 paw traction-control His top speed was 25mph His bhp was excelent stopping from top speed in just a few feet His throttle responce was excelent reaching top speed in seconds That was in his youth, in his older days he was reduced to walking pace. Sleep well my Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Cynic Posted June 29, 2010 Moderator Share Posted June 29, 2010 Bad news, you have my sympathies our pets very much become part of the family in every sense. We lost one of our cats in January. Had her from a kitten and she died at 13, its brought a tear to my eye even now as i write this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Airhead Posted June 29, 2010 Moderator Share Posted June 29, 2010 Pat I know exactly how you feel i've been there several times before myself. Above all other pets a dog is loyal brave and trusting, a border collie is indeed one of the more intelligent dogs anyone could share their life with. Try to remember the best times you had together instead of feeling down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
