Hi Donna, Are you saying you went through this exact thing or something similar? I don't mean to drudge up bad memories or the past but it would just help to know someone else has gone trough this, how you dealt with it, what they did, etc. I keep hearing her yelp and then remembering her little body laying there. I pray the vision will go away and soon. As one friend put it, it's a nightmare you keep hoping is not true.
My friends sent me to PetAngel and made arrangements for her. They are trying to help me find closure and move on. I thought it was very sweet. I'm blessed to have such wonderful friends.
How long before you got a new baby? I know that decision is personal, I'm just curious. Pet Loss recommendations tell you to get over your grief before attempting another pet. However, I have also seen some people say that went right out and got another dog.
Mom said I had a "strange" relationship with my dog. I didn't understand until this happened. I don't have children so I treated my dog as my child. Perhaps I did put to much into this relationship but I told myself she would be with me for some time. I did not keep in mind how fleeting life is even for our 4-legged kids. I think it's just the shock of what happened that is making this so hard. I am open to lots of pointers, comments, suggestions.
Right now another thing bugging me is that I will be judged some how for being a "stupid" or a "careless small dog owner". Friends remind me you just can't protect them from everything. Those that have children (human) remind me it's the same thing.
Thank you all for "listening". Mouse's Mommy
