You are surrounded by friends here who know the love that Yorkies bring to a family. They truly are our babies and losing one is devastating, especially when it is so quickly and when your questions go unanswered. I cannot begin to imagine what these 10 days have been like for you, but you have to know you did everything you could. The vet perhaps underestimated the extent of the infection, or maybe at your puppy's age, there were other problems (like kidney or liver function issues) that added to his problems. Sometimes they have troubles you don't expect. I took my 15 year old to have an ultrasound on his pancreas last week and they discovered prostate cancer and he has had no symptoms. So you never are quite sure if there were other issues that might have played a part in all this. Your fur baby knew how much he was loved. You may never get the answers as to "why" he died. And even if you do, it may not give you the peace you are looking for. Mostly I think you just miss him so deeply you want him back...and again, I am SO VERY sorry for your loss. Believe me, I experiencing a lot of the same emotions right now not knowing what is going to happen with my little guy so I can kind of relate. Please let us know how you're doing. We care about you.
