Q: Duke, our ancient, blind, diabetic Airedale, has started to leave unmentionable ‘gifts’ on the back door step each morning. The canine OAP is now so slow moving he can no longer make it to our tiny lawn to relieve himself. He’s confused and increasingly incapacitated by ailments requiring expensive trips to the vet.

I know you’re thinking: ‘Poor Duke, he can’t help it.’ But you don’t live with him. A diabetic dog we have to inject with insulin twice a day is no picnic. It would try the patience of the most ardent mutt-lover, and there are side-effects too gruesome to mention here.Our 'I don't know how I do it' columnist opens up about the family dogAt 12 years old, Duke the diabetic Airedale has become slow movingLorraine says she's unsure how her children will cope with the pet's death
