Lady of Yorkies | 06-27-2005 09:08 PM | Figment Figment: I can't believe what happened to your baby. Sounds like you and your neighbors were friends and helped themselves to your yard often. Because I am a distance away and because of what happened to Matty, I myself, can't find it in my heart to hate your neighbors or their dog. I'm sure they meant well. That doesn't help and niether will them putting their dog down, It won't serve any purpose unless he's done something similar sometime before. But I would go after them for ALL costs incurred from the first moneys spent on Molly to the very last penny. Again not because I hate them but because you are out that money. What about the love you lost? How can money replace that? I don't know but I think in the long run if you don't do it you will regret it. I am numb now. I have cried and just sat and stared off into space. I'll get over it and so will you, we have other babies to help us, who won't LET us suffer too long. Just today, Pirogue was chasing a ball, hopping on 3 legs with one in the air trying to catch a ball. Batting down with the paw in the air. It wasn't for my benefit but I had to laugh, it was so funny and so cute. First time I've laughed since Matty. Much too soon for my thinking but what can you do when you have these little clowns? Love from your pal in misery, Sylvia |
