Last Post
Batman passed away due to his habit of eating things off the ground. Unfortunately I wasn't familiar with fox baits but he ate one at around 7.30 on Monday 14th June during the normal morning walk. He was fine up until mid morning (10.30ish?) when he vomited all his food from the morning up and then followed up by lots of convulsions and foaming at the mouth. He expelled all his solids and liquid wastes and was clawing or paddling frantically. After a number of these convulsions and us frantically calling for a local vet he passed away as we just got into the car and were heading to a vet.
He is buried with his basket under a tree in Howes Valley.
We will absolutely miss our favourite and best dog in the world.

I’m branching out and have entered into my human’s work ‘footy’ (soccer in this case!) tipping competition.
