i am so sorry for what happened. try not to blame yourself too much. it was clearly an accident!
if it were my dog. i would want to know ASAP no matter what. i would be even more upset if i wasn't told ASAP.
i agree that the only thing comforting to me would be that it was a very quick death and the dog didn't have to suffer for too long.
your sister will be very upset naturally. if it were me, i will be really upset and probably cry, scream, and yell at you.(and maybe say things i don't mean) so hopefully you prepared yourself for that, and don't blame her for her reactions when you tell her what happened. it's really really hard. they are like our babies.
hugs to you and your sister. |
