I have received many phone calls most have been people sending me their prayers and people who have lost yorkies also. I know my mom will absolutely put up a larger amount for a cash reward. She has no debts and has her credit cards. I feel this urge to actually show an amount $$$ on my ads. People have not come right out and said it but I know those callers wonder how much am I offering. I totally understand that is is grand theft . I also know that if someone finds a dog and does NOT show proof that they at least posted a Found ad in the newspapers or proof that they called the animal control to check out this dog ( This is considered stealing!) I have said a hundred times that I am not interested in knowing who what where or why. If someone calls and tells me they have him. I will obviously ask for proof, a cell phone picture that it actually is Cookie. If I meet anyone , I am going with my husband. Today is exactly 2 weeks that he's been gone. Right now I can't accept that someone has him and is spoiling him.
After reading other stories I realize that I've gone through the same process as every pet owner who has a missing or deceased pet.
I didnt eat for 3 days, I slept sitting on my sofa because I could not bare the fact that he was not in my bed.All I did was cry for any reason. I still have moments where I start tearing. Even coming out of the shower is sad for me.
Cookie would sit by the shower and wait for me to step out of the shower, he would rush to my ankles and start licking the water off my ankles!

What are cops going to do? This lady lives 12 miles away. So a cop is just going to show up and ask to see the dog? This isnt the movies. I just have to see if my husband has any connections with any cops. I think he may.He talks to everyone and always knows someone that knows someone.

Today I got so sick to my stomach I didnt know what was wrong. My husband was driving and I just got goosebumps and wanted to throw up. He got me home and I just gagged over and over but nothing.

Well Lesley,
I was going to just let this go but I think you need some understanding on the above post.
Before you can even experience what Gen is going through, you have to know the experience. Gen is in a very frighten state at this time because she has lost her baby. I wasn't trying to be judgemental about Cookie just trying to clear her mind and think. I know she's been going through a very rough time and just wanted to help. I didn't want Gen to get hurt or in trouble if she took it upon herself.
I don't know how old you are, but it sure doesn't seem like you've really experienced life for what it is..... Their are hard times to face but with faith and letting God handle it for awhile helps.
If you knew anything about the law, you would know that Yorkie puppies can run into the thousands of dollars. When you have grand champions on both side, were talking big $$. Knowing this little guy, you can bet someone would take him, and this is grand thief. You really don't give the police enough credit for what they do. Have you ever watched the news and seen police officers and firemen rescue small pet. They would put themselves in danger just to save them. And you ask what the cops will do??
Gen, if your reading this, here's some information for you. A very good friend of mine knew this women that found a small dog. It was the cuties thing and she wanted to keep him. She told her, she had posted signs in our area and at the pet store to find the owner. Guess what! Signs were never posted. She now keeps this little one in her backyard as a playmate for her other dog. It happens Gen, so just keep thinking he's being taken care of for now and maybe one day he will run out and run home to you.

Hoping for Cookie's quick return home. I'll keep you in my prayers.

Today I got so sick to my stomach I didnt know what was wrong. My husband was driving and I just got goosebumps and wanted to throw up. He got me home and I just gagged over and over but nothing. I fell asleep on the sofa had Angel, my husband's yorkie literally fall asleep next to my face and Lola the Maltese joined him and fell asleep on my legs. My husband said that he will be here for me no matter what but he wanted to bring out the Christmas decorations at least to decorate the inside :(
I usually decorate every room in this house, even my kitchen will have a tree decorated. But I am just dreading that box with all our christmas stockings and there is Cookie\'s stocking with his picture on it. I dont want to open that. I will have to let them at least put up the tree. My daughter\'s seem miserable because they want their "clowny mom" back. I\'m begging God to pleeeeeease let me be able to at least function ato 50% for them.
My husband\'s eyes seem so full of pain and he tells me the pain is more because he sees my suffering. Don\'t worry guys, no matter what is posted on this thread. I have not taken it very personal. I dont have the strength for that. I know words sometime seem so different when you read them instead of hear the person.
I have enough for the 5,000 postcards from what was donated and my mom will offer a reward of $700 cash from a credit card. She\'s on a fixed income but I can pay her back monthly. I know this can go either way with people calling. But I have read here and other forums how the money changed a person\'s mind about keeping the dog. Cookie is not worth more than $100 in his current health condition. He has such terrible teeth problems, bad luxating pattella and his liver disease that needs to be monitored that he is only priceless to me. I will eat some soup and try to get rest today. I need to be strong and alert as possible tomorrow. Ihave calls to make to several shelters that emailed me regarding some yorkies found. They are not closeby ..about 1 hr away but they were found about 1-2 weeks ago so I need to check that out.About that woman that called and said that the yorkie ran off. I will check that out as well. I\'m not knocking but there will be flyers posted all over that area tomorrow plus taped to each mailbox.
