Happy heavenly birthday to our beautiful Hogan 🖤 I'm still heartbroken

04/11/2025

We said goodbye to Neko a year ago. I had really hoped that I would be less distraught a year on, but I'm not. I go from feeling completely bereft waking up to an empty house, to feeling angry at what we had to deal with losing both girls to cancer in such quick succession, to feeling guilty that we put her through the ordeal of amputation and chemotherapy and wondering if we did the right thing. I wish I was one of those people who lose a dog and immediately adopt another. I feel like that's a more noble, more resilient thing to. Being alone is devastating but I don't think I could go through all that again. I still cry nearly every day. Give your dog a cuddle from me.

Halloween was Hogan's Gotcha Day. We used to call her our spooky little batdog. I miss her.

Happy heavenly birthday to our spooky little batdog, Hogan. We miss you every day. 🖤 This photo was taken on her 12th birthday. The sweetest sugar-dusted snoot. 🤍

One month without our Neko. Little Dog. Neeky Neeks. Bishface. Chatterchops. Neko T Greyhound. Her passing has left such a huge void in our lives; I don't have the words to express how much we miss her.

Neko 💙🌈 01/10/2012 - 04/11/2024

When Neko came to us at almost four years old she had been on death row twice. She was a quiet, anxious girl then. She used to growl at other dogs that approached her. She had terrible separation anxiety. With lots of love and socialisation and the companionship of her adopted sister Hogan, she became much more relaxed and confident.

As funny as she was beautiful, Neko had an incredible sense of comedy timing and made us laugh every single day. She was the queen of greySMR, devouring any cronchable snack with gusto - everything from toast to prawn crackers to her new favourite, quail heads. She could make you hand over your cheese within seconds by staring you down. She would often bless us with her sardine-scented warthog burps.

Her chatters and snappy snaps were legendary. She charmed everyone she met ("she's *so* soft!") and handled cancer treatment with grace and poise. It is incredible how resilient she turned out to be and how well she adapted to becoming a tripawd. She was an affectionate little muppet and loved morning cuddles and being scooped up by her dad.

Neko was my first dog, and what a dog she was. A glamorous goofball. A nervous little mouse who turned into the queen of sass. There will never be another hound quite like our Neeky Neeks, our boo, our land shark, our little blue kangaroo. We will miss her forever.

Neko's last few days 💙

02/11/2024

A huge thank you to our beautiful friends Sugar and Drew at The Great Central Hotel in Glen Innes. We asked to book a table for us and Neko so we could take her out for steak and chips. They reserved the entire whisky bar just for us, gave her lots of fuss, and brought us a complimentary dessert each (sticky date pudding, A+). I gave my ice cream to Neko. She had a wonderful evening.

Friends, we have very bad news. Almost two weeks ago, Neko's remaining back leg became swollen and bruised. We took her to the emergency vet on the Sunday and again the following Thursday when her symptoms didn't improve and the bruising spread to her abdomen. She had blood tests and X-rays and no obvious cause of her symptoms could be identified. On Wednesday she went for an ultrasound at a specialist vet 2.5 hours away. Neko has been diagnosed with hemangiosarcoma, a cancer of the blood vessels. We have consulted with three different vets including an oncologist and all agree the prognosis is very poor. This is a very aggressive cancer that ends in an excruciating death. There is no cure, and an internal bleed could happen at any time. We are going to give her the best weekend ever, and on Monday we will let her go. We have not taken this decision lightly. Everything we have done for the past 8+ years has been with the best interests of our girls in mind. We are absolutely devastated but this is the kindest thing we can do for our beautiful Neko.

Halloween was Hogan's Gotcha Day so this evening we took Neko to the Australian Standing Stones to watch the sunset and remember our special spooky baby. 🖤
