How heartbreaking for that family. My thoughts and prayers are with them. Rest peacefully, little one.

That is so terrible.What responsibility does the dog owners have who killed this baby, I only take the girls to Petsmart for their nail trim and they are kept in their carrier at all times. When I took them to the Halloween party I kept them in the stroller. My Petsmart seems to have a lot of big dogs in it and I wouldn't want to take a chance.

thats terrible,i wonder what they are gonna do to the owner of the huskys,that poor lady seeing her sweet yorkie being mauled like that.

At the dog park we go to, on the big dog side every time there is a fight a husky is involved. *shrug*

For My Coby · 01-21-2008, 06:35 PM

How awful!! Coby loves meeting big dogs, but there is always an unknown factor. Most people are good admitting that although they haven't seen any aggression, they can't be certain. Assuming on the side of good people, I'm sure that the husky owners were just mortified. No matter if you are 100% certain of your dog, it only takes one instant of something unexpected happening. And as the owner said, she wasn't saying her dog couldn't be a problem, but mortal injuries would be a bit tough for a Yorkie. How awful. I can't even imagine!! That poor girl broke my heart talking about it. Ty was the about the same age and the size as Coby.

Lacy has always hated huskies...anytime she's been around one she get's really pissy. So we always try to avoid them. Poor yorkie...I can't imagine going through that

AVERYxo · 01-21-2008, 07:00 PM

oh my gosh that is so sad!!

Boosted Panda · 01-21-2008, 07:03 PM

Thats terrible. The worst part is when you goto court the judge treats the death of an irreplaceable family member like an item.

yoyo27 · 01-21-2008, 07:05 PM

My dog always likes bigger dogs as she has a brother that is a big 80 lb dog. But that is also up to the owner of the huskies, if he knows they are aggressive they shouldn't be taken out somewhere like that. Its hard to say who is right, but some one is lost without there little pal now. How terrible to see something like that happen.

SweetPea53 · 01-21-2008, 07:05 PM

Omgosh...I feel soooooooo bad for the family having to go through something as terrible as that....When ever taking my baby out to a store with other pets around I always keep her in a shopping cart or carry her...Ty was almost the same age and size as my baby.... RIP Lil Ty....
