[Teh One Who Knocks]

This touching photo shows an elderly dog on her final trip to the beach before she was put down.

Jessie the Black Labrador was deaf, going blind, suffered from arthritis and needed to be lifted from a van for her last visit to Redcar beach, in North Yorkshire.

But despite her age and ailments the 15-and-a-half year-old had the energy for one final run.



Jessie’s owner Lisa Rutter recorded the tear-jerking moment she dashed towards her.

‘Although she couldn’t hear me shouting she knew I had treats and just by me putting my hand in my pocket it created this great pic of her at her happiest,’ the 40-year-old said.

‘Running is something I hadn’t seen in a long time from her.

‘I thanked her for being my number one girl and my best friend and she gave me a big sloppy kiss.’



The photo was taken in August and she was put to sleep the following month.

Rutter added: ‘Jessie looked up at me and at that point I knew it was time. She was ready. There had been no suffering and I was so glad of that.’

In November Lisa and her civil partner Jen, who she met while walking Jessie, took her ashes to be scattered in the Lake District.

Last month they came across a Best Old Dog Photo Competition being hosted by Off the Leash, a dog cartoon website run by artist Rupert Fawcett.

She entered the photograph of Jessie’s final run on the beach and earlier this week Mr Fawcett announced it had won the competition after picking up more than 9,500 likes.
