I am so very sorry. I can relate to the grief and pain of your loss. I can't relate to the way you lost her, though. Sometimes, no matter how tough we are, we can't prevent the tragedies that come into our lives so unexpectedly. One of my neighbors ran her little yorkie out the front door one night because it was sick. She ran back into the house for a sweater and back out just as quickly and her little one was gone. We know it was a coyote. They are all around us. The thing is that she had a fenced yard in the back of the house, but she was close to the front door when that happened and she never even thought of such a thing happening. We just cannot foresee every bad thing that can happen, nor can we prevent every bad thing that can happen. It takes time to work through one's grief. Perhaps a nice on-line memorial would be a beginning to remember the unconditional love that Koda had for you and you for her.
