Gizmo RIP >>>

After having reached the age of 11 years so it was time to say goodbye. For the six months since he had testicular cancer
and now we did not want him to suffer anymore.



So now there are no pets left in the house.

Poor guy, it really sucks losing a pet, but knowing you, I'm sure you have tons of great pictures to remember him with.

Jocke,
So sorry to read about your loss. He was a real beauty.
A good dog is worth a lot more than a silly Rolex.
Regards,

So Sorry to hear bud!!!! I love my dogs so much, and I really start to tear up when things happen to our furry friends. Some people just have no clue what it is to lose one these guys. They are just like a family member!!!

I'm very sorry for your loss. I lost a beloved cat a few months ago. These animals become treasured family members, and their passing is so painful.
