Yesterday afternoon Dolly was gently put to sleep on the rug in front of our wood-burner, a place she had occupied through many an evening.  The last photo I took of Dolly a couple days ago Time to goThat look, that glance is not by chance You've asked. It's your time to go I knelt beside you as you pushed life in to this world And I kneel beside you now, as your last breath is unfurled My shadow, my chicken obsessed little Dolly The space you occupied at my knee, now fills the space from my kitchen window I can see Your resting place for eternity.  Dolly's resting place decorated by the children

She was such a little darling. I remember when you showed her climbing up onto the chicken roost bar with Reggie looking up as if to say "How on earth did you do that?"

Sincere condolences for your loss it's such a sad loss to the pack and your family. So lovely for her to be at home on her rug and your poem has me crying my eyes out. The resting place with Dolly name on is a tribute to your family she will never be forgotten and she knew love from you all and will be forever in your hearts xx

I'm so sorry Jane, I have only just seen this. Dolly is part of our family through her daughter our gorgeous Darcey, she gave our family one of the most precious gifts we have ever received- we will never forget her.
