| So sorry to hear about the loss of your puppy. It takes time to grieve only you will know when you want to get another puppy. My cure would be to get anohter puppy right away not to replace her but to give another puppy a good home. I would never think I wouldn't love a new puppy. I know my Zach is a really friendly crazy little yorkie and no other dog can replace him but that would never stop me from getting another dog. The question is are you getting a dog to replace her or are you getting a dog to give one a home. If you're getting a dog to replace the other dog you are never going to be happy with a new dog because no two dogs are alike. |

| Senior Yorkie Talker | So sorry for your loss, It took me 3 years to get over the loss of my first yorkie and I just got one in may when I felt I was ready! I was soo happy I turned around and added another last week double the trouble yet double the love. I hope you feel better soon. Just know that your other yorkie will be watching over you from yorkie heaven

| It's very hard to go through losing your furbaby. It takes time, grief, tears, and memories. We lost our oldest Yorkie less than a month ago. She is the 4th to go to the Rainbow Bridge. You will never forget your baby. You will never replace your baby. You will learn to live with it. You will smile again. You have to go through your grief. There were days when I could not stop crying. I saw my strong husband cry like a baby. It's like getting sucker punched in the gut and face at the same time. The pain will not be so sharp after some time. We got another doggie, not to replace Alice, but to fill our house again. We have three Yorkies but Alice was the center of our home. We do not think of Cassie as a replacement for Alice. She is the next Yorkie in our home. I have found you have enough love as you need to love new dogs. I let them be who they are and have bonded with them all. YOu can't force it, on yourself or on them. If you feel you can love another one, get another one. But know s/he is another being and will never replace the fallen doggie. A website that helped me is Ten Tips on Coping with Pet Loss. God bless you. I will keep you in my prayers.

| YT 1000 Club Member | LaRue, The heart of every person on this forum, goes out to you in your time of grief. I wish I could tell you of some sure way to cope with it, but I don't know of anything that will work, except the passing of time. I support you getting another little love one, it may be the only way you can help yourself through giving it the love you have for your other. Actually, that is one of the main reasons why I have more than one Yorkie. I too would be devastated if I were to loose one, for any reason. Again, I'm so sorry for your loss. S.W.

| I am very sorry for your loss. 20 yrs ago I had a beloved kitty I loved with all my heart, One morning I crossed a busy street to commute to work, well my cat tried to follow me,and she was hit by a car, twice. Right in front of my eyes. i remember my reaction, i was bent over and let out blood curling screams, a stranger, woman grabbed me and held onto me, and a man risked his life crossing the busy street and placed my kitty in the medium, out of the road. I wsa a total mess, And at that time just found out I was also pregnant. At work I was so hysterirical They let me go home. I had this kitty the day he was born, watched his momma feed him and when big enough took him, he was my first "baby" I kept thinking to myself, how the hell can I take care of a human baby when I could not save my kitty? I blamed myself, and it was horible. For me it took yrs. He was so special to me, just a regular gray taby but to me he was more then that. I can now think of the fond memories with him and the emotional pain has subsided after yrs of regret. I have pictures of him, and now can see them without becomming upset. You will neeed to allow yourself plenty of time to grieve, do not rush it. it is a process. I would not advise replacing your puppy right away. If you have pictures of your yorkie, make a little scrapbook, or keepsake of her. She will always be in your heart, but as for now, let yourself be sad, and take all the time you need. In time the emotional pain will not be so unbearable, remember the good times, and try not to dwell on your puppy's death.

I am really so sorry for you. I know how fast these little ones can be. When Gracie was a puppy she raced out the door a couple of times. Tragedy was averted because of the grace of God and there were people faster than me able to catch her. We live far away from the main road but she would always race as fast as she could up toward that road. I can't tell you how upset I would be just thinking of what could have happened. I started to not even answer the door unless I had her on a leash. She is grown up now and does not try to get out anymore but I am so careful not to let her near the door even still. I can't imagine the grief you must be going through. I know you can never replace your pup but hopefully the joy of another one will help to ease the pain. | |

| Zachary's Mom Donating Member | We put a gate on our patio because occasionally somebody would run out the door. We do not have a fenced yard so only two out of six go out to potty and are always leashed. None of them would know what to do if they got loose. Louise |

| Sorry for your loss. I think it's ok to get another puppy. It would take the same place in your heart as your baby you just lost, but it will hold another special place in your heart. |
