Walnut's last walk

[Catherine]

This is a beautiful story of a man and his 18 year old dog. Walnut has reached the end and Mark wanted to share one last walk on their favourite beach before they go to the vet to release Walnut from his suffering. It is a beautiful touching story. Any of us who have had to let a pet go know how hard it is. Even if our pet dies naturally we still have to watch them fade away. Finding a way to say goodbye is so special.  Mark and Walnut had a beautiful goodbye.

I will run out and find a special food that my pet likes or I will stay home and hold them all day until the end. I guess with a dog it is all about taking walks.   They spent a lifetime together. I hope they both were comforted by all the people who supported them.
