My mom and aunt recommend that I get another Yorkie. At this point I feel that I am not ready to even try it...I'm still so upset about Kiwi, I feel that she was one of those "once in a lifetime dogs".
Mom mom's yorkie died at 5 years old from genetic problems. She said she wasn't able to do anything for 8 weeks, until finally my step-dad brought another little yorkie home. At first my mom was very hesitant but very soon, she said, she was able to love another little pup without replacing her first...which made her feel much better. Does anyone else have this experience? And how long did you wait? I can see myself waiting for a year or so...although there is something inside of me that wants to get another furbaby in the next few months. |
Dear Dean, I am so very sorry for your loss of Kiwi, we know the pain you are feeling, last November 5th. was one of the longest and worst nights of my life, it came time to give Cassie back to the Lord for his keeping. They are such a gift to us, and then we got Baby Blessing on December 9th. We also have Cassie's remains in a urn on our dresser, I still cry and miss her and for me it still really is hard, but all I can do is just thank the Lord for the time he allowed us to have her, knowing that this life is only temporay and one day we will all be together in eternity. I hope you will find it in yourself to get another, none will ever take the place of the one we loose but our love goes on to give another, Kiwi wil always be a part of you, and she would want you to continue on and give the love you have to another. I wrote a poem in memory of everyones precious pets. I had previously posted it in the forum here. Please let us know when you do get another and my prayers are with you and your family. Patti and Jack and Baby Blessing
Memorial Poem For All Our Precious Pets
Written by me Patti on May 26,2006
This is dedicated in honor and memory of all our precious pets.
Bless the house I lived in Lord, the one that I called home
the people there who really cared, they were a family all my own.
Bless the little children who snuggled me to sleep
Gently said their prayers- thanking God their soul to keep.
Bless their Mother and her many tasks undone
To take the time to hug, romp, play with me and run.
Bless their Father for all the love he shows, to his family plus me
Oh how Blessed I am, to live in a home such as you have provided it to be.
How I loved, and forever will love my family, and forever grateful I will be
They set a fine example of love for all the world to see.
I only ask one favor Lord, please guide my family on their way
Let them Remember the happy times, lest I could not stay.
Thank you Lord for preparing this beautiful heaven for eternity
One day my family and I together will abide here, forever with thee.
Ones blind implicit faith in you, is matched only by your love
The kind that all of us should have, in the spirit of above.
When our life goes on beyond to join our other loved ones there
Let us each rejoice together united in prayer.
Thank you God for all you did to set our souls free
Bringing Jesus into this world, allowing this for you, you, and me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cassie would have been 11 years tomorrow this is her first
birthday in her forever eternal home. In writing this
poem I hoped it would give some comfort to those that have
had to give up a precious one. Patti
