Oh Robbie! I am so very sorry! I understand what it is like to lose one of your "children." You go ahead and cry all you want to! Perhaps your doctor can prescribe something to help you, expecially with the holidays to get through! Thank God she has a yorkie sister who is loving and feeding those babies! How many puppies is she nursing in all? I don't know anything about all of this, but I hope she has enough milk and isn't being overloaded with the extra babies. I agree that you should keep one of the babies in memory of precious Rio. Keep writing to us, Robbie. We are here and I'm saying a prayer for you right now. Elizabeth

Dear Robbie, I am so sorry for your loss. I know Rio is looking down on you in all your sorrow and misses you too. I know she is happy that you are taking such good care of her babies for her, and she will never forget you. May God bless you through this time of sorrow and heal your heart.

Robbie I am soooo sorry I dont have enough words to take away the pain wish I did, only God can take away your pain and mend your broken heart, you and your babies are in my prayers

I am sorry about your loss of your little girl and her baby. You are blessed that your other litttle gal is taking such good care of all the babies. Please give her a kiss for me.

All seems dark and unhappy at this time but remember she is watching you from above and will give you the strength, guidance and willpower to go on in her memory.

Robbie, I am so very sorry. I know how much she means to you, the love you have for her and all your dogs showed everytime we talked. I know you did everything you could. I am so sorry...OMG, I am so very sorry, if there is anything I can do for you, please let me know! You and your family are in my prayer's.

I dont know how I missed this post. Robbie I am so sorry!! My heart is just breaking for you. I know you are upset but you have to be strong for the little ones. I dont know what to say to ease your pain just know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.
God bless you

Oh No!
 

Robbie I am so sorry to hear of Rio's passing. You must be so heartbroken. I can't believe how this happened, and I am sure you are reeling. I agree with some of the posters who say you should not blame yourself for this. I am certain Rio doesn't blame you.

Take care of yourself, my friend. If you need me, you know I am not that far away.

I am so very sorry.
You do a service by posting the good and bad side of breeding. I have seen alot of the bad side, fortunately more good then bad or I would be locked away in a rubber room someplace.

After the loss of a girl from shock after a c-section, my husband said the same word..DOCTOR. It helped me talk it out..now we have Yorkie forums for therapy..and only people who love and loose can understand your pain..so keep talking to us...we will listen and cry with you.

May God bless and comfort you during this time. Give those babies a big hug from all of us here. They will help you heal.

Oh my gosh! How awfully sad. you will definitely be in my thoughts today.

I'm so sorry about your lose! Breeding can be rewarding and heartbreaking too! Just love those babies she left in your care! It well get easier in time but you well always miss her! Still miss one that we lost 5 yrs ago! lily

I don't know if I've ever read a post with such emotion that I could actually hear you speaking.

I cannot think of any words that I can say except that you have many of us here as friends. If you need anything, please do not hesistate to ask.

I can only imagine your pain and wish that I could shoulder some of that burden for you. I'll be thinking about you and praying for you and the babies.

You're stronger than you give yourself credit . . . one day at a time.

Hugs,
Lisa

Robbie,

I don't know what to say. I was in tears reading this post. Please don't feel the guilt. You know in your heart you did everything you needed to do. We can't see inside them and know everything no matter how much we wish we could. Breeding is a learning experience no 2 situations are ever the same.
I had felt this sadness over a year a go. Guilt haunted me when I lost a 6 wk old tiny female. My first tiny pup and I wasn't as aware of how quick you have to move if they are not eating. Well I didnt force feed her quick enough so I lost her. It still upsets me when I think about it. On the flip side, it has made me SO paranoid that I was able to save another tiny I had since then.
So please understand you are not alone. There are some of us that have been in situations similar to yours. You did what you felt was BEST and you need to find comfort in that. You are that much wiser for the next litter and also to pass on your experience to others that just want to breed and have no idea how risky it really is!

Thanks for sharing this with us. I am sure it was painful. Please feel free to email stellaryorkies@aol.com or PM me. I would be happy to lend you an ear at anytime.

((hugs))
Irene

God Bless
 

Robbie-
God speed to you and your family at this time- Rio would not want you to stop but keep going- especially for her little ones- keep trying and each day will get easier but it will take time- god bless

My Prayers are with you
 

There's nothing anyone can say to ease your hurt and pain, so I'm not going to try. Please know that the entire Yorkie Talk community shares your grief. But, please stop beating yourself up, because you just didn't know. Also, it may help if you kept a journal of your thoughts, your fears, etc.

You will be in my prayers.
