End of an Era

3 generations of springer spaniels down to two, our dear Fettle has to be put to sleep just now at 16 years old.
She's been a real character and well earned up to her Nick name 'the F... Dog' !!! on many occasions.
She was devoted to Kim and in the latter year or so has stuck to him like glue as he played golf out in the back field or as he did any carpentry out the front in his workshop.
I know her time had come, but it's still so very hard to make that decision.
