I want to get this dog under control and get her into some training courses and wait til she is a bit more matured before I bring another dog into my house so something like this never ever happens again. But I just love the yorkie breed and I can't think of any other dog I'd want to own. I know though if and when I do decide I am going to go for a larger one. 4.8-5lbs is too small especially how fragile she was. I feel horrible to even post this and think about it  I hope I don't sound like a terrible owner
Just a side note, I went to visit her grave today I cried all over again but not as much because my mom and her boyfriend were around as well as my daughter so I didn't want her to sense something was wrong. We just sat for a little while at the spot and talked to Stormy, my daughter was even kissing the ground  We picked some flowers and laid them down for her. It felt nice to be able to go and be near "her". But she still feels like she is with me in my heart. |
You'll know when the time is right for you.
I waited 24 hours after my beloved Cleo died at 16 years of age. Her death started my yorkshire terrier journey. The new pup eased my pain because I was so busy with her I didn't have time to think. Except at night and the tears would start. Does it ever go away......it's been years and I still cry at certain times. Especially Christmas, when I pull out her Christmas stocking, yep I still have it, along with her baby blanket. Her ashes sit here in the computer room. All I have to do is look up and there they are along with her baby sitting on top of her box. Time will ease the pain but, you will never forget. There will be a time that when you think of her you'll smile instead of cry.
