Today we said goodbye to our beautiful Poppy 💔🌈
I have walked Poppy for 11 years, 5 days a week for so many of those years. She has been such a huge part of my life, my work and my dog walking family. We have shared thousands of walks, adventures and memories over the years.
Rescued from Ireland via Dogs Trust and brought to the UK, Poppy went on to have the most amazing life with a wonderful owner who loved her completely, through thick and thin.
When Poppy was diagnosed with bone cancer last year, her owner was faced with an incredibly difficult decision. She chose to give Poppy the chance to keep enjoying life, and after having her front leg amputated, Poppy recovered so well and even bounced — or hopped — back into some group walks, before eventually moving onto shorter solo walks.
Sadly today, her time had come. 💔
After 11 years, it is hard to imagine my days without her. She was such a special girl and I feel incredibly lucky to have had her in my life for so long.
Run free now, beautiful girl. Four legs again and no pain.
Fly high, princess 🌈🌈😢😢
