Just checking in to see if Kathy( OP) posted an update on how it went when she told her sister. They both continue to be in my prayers |
me too any word yet?:( |
I want to add my condolences and support. We have heard of a few yorkies drowning here. I thought it might be because they have so much hair that they have trouble staying afloat, but I would not have thought a dog could drown in a minute. Hopefully this doesn't come off as gruesome, but perhaps later, some comfort can be taken in that her death was quick. Sometimes terrible things happen, and there is nothing you can do. Peace to all of you. |
If it were my dog, I would want to know right away. I am so sorry for your loss. :( |
how is everyone taking the loss? |
Oh I'm so sorry ! My prayers are with you ! |
I just can't imagine your pain. Gosh I am so sorry. Please let your sister know immediately. Nancy is right. Decisions have to be made |
loss of puppy How horrible.... even though you feel really bad its not your fault...and I think that your sister will not hold it against you. I am sure that she will know that you would never have let it happen on purpose. We were dog sitting for my brother he has an english bulldog and we were letting her out to potty and she ran right past us and went right into our pool... straight to the bottom, she didnt even try to swim... I had to jump in and push her to the top and my husband pulled her out. Things happen quickly and and if we hadnt been there when she fell in she would have passed too. I am so sorry this happened to you... give your sister alot of love... and dont be so hard on yourself....your and yours are in my thoughts and prayers. |
I am so sorry about your families loss as well. I think that you should most definitely get a hold of your sister and prepare her for the inevitable. Be prepared for her reaction- she I am sure is going to be feeling lots of emotions! Best wishes to you all, and please send an update! |
i am so sorry for what happened. try not to blame yourself too much. it was clearly an accident! if it were my dog. i would want to know ASAP no matter what. i would be even more upset if i wasn't told ASAP. i agree that the only thing comforting to me would be that it was a very quick death and the dog didn't have to suffer for too long. your sister will be very upset naturally. if it were me, i will be really upset and probably cry, scream, and yell at you.(and maybe say things i don't mean) so hopefully you prepared yourself for that, and don't blame her for her reactions when you tell her what happened. it's really really hard. they are like our babies. hugs to you and your sister. |
I am so so sorry to hear about this. I read your thread this morning and it's haunted me all day. I have no idea what I would do in this kind of situation. You need to expect your sister to scream and yell and maybe say some things she doesn't mean. It's not your fault - accidents happen - but her shock is going to be unimaginable. I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this. I'm going to have you and your sister in my thoughts and prayers. :love: |
This is such a sad and tragic story. I'm so sorry for you and also for your sister's loss. I hope you and your sister can find comfort in the days ahead. Don't be strangers to the site. There are a lot of us on this board that have experienced the pain of losing one of these precious little ones. __________________________________________________ ____________ FYI for all those who thinks dogs automatically swim, I had a golden retriever (a water loving dog) get in my pool last year and sink. We had to pull her out by her collar--she was fine but it was scary none the less. |
My Deepest Sympathies to you and your sister over the tragic loss of little Jill...I hope your bond as Sisters will grow stronger and help you both deal with this loss in the weeks ahead...R.I.P. JILL... :tinyheart:rip::angelyork:tinyheart |

I am just reading this thread. How terrible. I am so sorry you have to wear this burden. It was an accident. I personally wouldn't want to know until I came home. Especially if I were away. I only say this because it would ruin the vacation for everyone who was with me. I would want to go home right away. I do hope when you tell (or told) your sister that she was understanding to it being an accident. My heart goes out to you and your sister! |
