I've just heard the very sad news that a friend lost his staffy pup yesterday. Her name was Poppy and she was just 9 months old
Her training seemed to be going well, but she bolted on the lead into the road, and into the path of a car. She died almost instantly in her daddy's arms.
I only saw her on Saturday and she was so full of life and energy, quite boisterious really, but amazingly gentle with his 3 year old daughter.
I've sent him a copy of The Rainbow Bridge, not sure if he believes in this kind of thing, but it may help the family to think that this is not the end.
RIP Poppy sweetheart, play hard on the Bridge little one
