A sad day

Many of the regular Commons walkers will know Bisto, the German Shepherd owned by Bill, our Senior Keeper. Many of you will also know that just over a year ago, Bisto had an operation after the vet found cancer in his nose.

Unfortunately the vet was unable to remove all the cancer and Bisto's time would be limited, perhaps a year or so. It was a true diagnosis. A few months ago the cancer returned and Bisto has been going down hill since. He seemed happy enough and he was always pleased to see everyone but over the last few weeks his condition worsened and Bill had to make the decision to end his suffering.

Bisto will be sorely missed by all the staff and all who knew him. He was Bill's constant companion and wherever Bill was, Bisto was never far from his side.

Run free Bisto
