I had to have my oldest dog put down today. Daisy was a blue heeler that was given to us because the she would always run away. From the first day we had her she would never try to leave the yard. I could whistle and snap my fingers and she would come running to me where ever she was at.
The one bad habit we could never break was she never could get along with other dogs. When we got Sammy she would tolerate him but if he ever walked by her the wrongway she would snip at him. As she got older if you disturbed her while she slept she would try and bite you.
Well yesterday Daisy took it to far and put a big gash on the side of Sammy's ribs. It was totaly unprovoked. Sammy wouldn't even put up a fight with the puppies we have. Daisy is the dog on the left and Sammy is on the right
This was a very tough decision to make. She was starting to have some health problems but she was also starting to take more than a snip at LOML at night when she would get out of bed at night to let the dogs out and her foot would touch Daisy.
We buried her out back with her favorite toys and planted a tree over her. She will be missed.
