I had to fly back early from Italy because my beloved dog George became very unwell.  Sadly I had to make the decision to have her put down.  She was only 5 and it has broken my heart.  She had a suspected spinal tumour that was extremely aggressive.  Within a few days she became paralysed and was in a lot of pain even though we had put her on very strong painkillers.  Bless her......she gave me so much love and joy- I shall never forget her xxxxx
