It's with a heavy heart, that we said goodbye to Herriot last week.
Words cannot thank this boy enough for the impact he made on my life. I got Herriot when I was 21, and we were incredibly lucky to spend nearly 15 years together. We moved out of home together, we went through vet school, first jobs, multiple home moves, and so many important life changes together.
He was the most patient and forgiving teacher, and his guidance has made me the trainer, vet behaviourist and dog owner I am today.
I will never be able to thank him enough for impacting the way I live my life daily.
Many of you would have known Herriot, and he was lucky to have made so many friends from various places over his life.
He spent almost every day at work with me, holidays away with friends, coming to my behaviour office, catching up with dog friends and training mates. There was never a dull day together, and as I look back on his long and happy life, I have few regrets. I suspect he had none.
It absolutely is heartbreaking to say goodbye, but I wanted to share some of my favourite moments of us together.
Thanks Herry.
