We very sadly had our beloved collie Jem put to sleep on 4th Jan. She was 22 years old and we were very fortunate to be able to share her life with her for so long, she has left us with very happy memories. We also have her pup who is now 11 and who Jem had when she was 11. The picture shows Jem puppysitting our other dog's pups, born just 3 months after her own! Attachments:

Thank you all for your very kind words. Jem was so kind natured and eager to please, it was impossible not to love her. She had been with us since she was 6 years old and part of our family so it was very hard to let her go but we knew it was time as she was no longer happy.
She is now buried in her favourite spot in the garden, the middle of the lawn where she loved to sleep in the sunshine and catch tennis balls in her younger days. I like to think that she is catching tennis balls to her heart's content at Rainbow Bridge. She would always bring them back to you for more and move them a bit closer if you couldn't quite reach them!
