Stikkys last adventure was a trip to the lake district. Booked for the boyfriends birthday and decided we would have a trip as the 3 us. Little did we know it was the first and last time away as 3. Stikky has been on many adventures with me, in his younger years it was never a question of wether or not to bring him with but as his legs got weaker he couldn’t go the distance so would sometimes miss out. This past year we have adapted adventures for the old soul, suprising what he could manage when going at his pace.
I am so glad we decided to take him, so glad that we got some lovely picture and memories as 3 weeks later I had to say goodbye. Goodbye to my best friend, my dog, my identity. I kept my promise to him, the day he can’t walk would be the day I let him go. It wasn’t easy carrying 30kg knowing that it’d be the last time. The memories are now bitter sweet but safe to say I don’t regret making them, if anything wish we’d made more.
