After 15 very special years I finally had to say goodbye to my beloved West Highland Terrier Scamp on Thursday 10/09/2009. He had so many problems at the end, that it was kindest to let him go. He had suffered with major skin problems, which affects most westies at some time, for quite a while on and off, and had terrible problems walking due to severe arthritis, he had constant eye and ear infections, which wouldnt clear up,the latest of which would have required surgery, which I don't think he would have survived, but he had also started losing control of his bladder and bowel. He had lots of large cysts all over his head and neck, which were really horrible, which made brushing his face almost impossible because they hurt if you touched them, although the vet said they didn't hurt him if they were left alone, luckily his fur was very thick. He was so uncomfortable in spite of the medications he was on, that I couldn't stand to see him suffer any longer. I would have loved to just kept treating him, but that would have been so selfish. I knew the time had come to think of Scamp and how he felt. I feel llike my heart has been ripped to shreds, even though everyone tells me it was the right and kindest thing to do, but I miss that little fella so much, and cannot contemplate life without him. I stayed with him to the end repeatedly telling him how much I loved him, as I didnt want him hearing only strangers voices.

He was the cutest, sweetest and funniest little fella I've every known. He was also my best friend. He came into my life when I needed a friend most. I told him everything and shared every thought with him and i'm certain he understood. Whenever I was upset he would be there looking at me with those lovely brown eyes and cocking his head to the side when I spoke to him. I miss him desperately. RIP my little fella. I will never forget you.

The best friend I ever had
you were always there through good or bad
your cute face and big brown eyes
your cheeky ways and yappy days

I will never forget you my gorgeous little fella.
