With a heavy heart I said goodbye to my first greyhound Gibson on 14/12/2012.
He had been getting progressively slower over the last couple of months from the crippling pain of his arthritis. I just could not bear it anymore to see him struggling to move around that I made the decision to let him go.
He has been the light of my life the last 7 years and I will miss him dearly.
My first ever greyhound and my heart dog who always had a silly pose or his big ears sticking up, looking for treats. I will miss getting hip checked while trying to prepare his dinner, or his silly shakes that always ended up with his tongue sticking out of his mouth.
He was such a sweet boy and both Fire and I miss him dearly.
run free my sweet boy, no more pain now.

Saying good-bye to your beloved greyhound (or any pet) is not easy and we are all feeling your pain. Gibson knew that he was loved since he first laid eyes on you and your family and I know that he knew you made the right decision to put him free from pain. Run like the wind Sweet Gibson.

What a terrible decision to have to make, but thank goodness we can make it knowing we are doing the absolutely best thing we can do. I can just picture him running around with all the others with his tongue sticking out. Let all the good memories wash over you. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this very sad time.
