I was so saddened to hear about Lucy on FB especially after everything that happened. Run easy, sweet girl.

??? What kind of dog lover says something like that?

I am so sorry, Mike. Lucy really went thru so much, but I am sure she felt the unconditional love and definitely gave it back to you.

I do know that her story with the pit attack has given many of us a reminder... Even if the owner claims their dog is "friendly" we still need to have our guard up. Recently, while camping, one of the campers went walking by calling their dogs name. I, of course, asked if I could help.. They said that their pit mix was loose dragging leash and wanted to know if we seen it... It must have been the look on my face, because immediately she said... "Don't worry she's friendly."
I told her straight up that irregardless, I couldn't trust it, but would help her look for it after I put my Yorkies securely back in the RV. ( by the way we did find her and she was waggin her tail and happy to have been reaquainted with her owner)

We will miss Lucy, but her story will keep us on our toes as a quiet reminder.
RIP Lucy.

I am so very sad to read of Lucy's passing. I am sure you all miss her very much.

I just saw the RIP with Lucy's name. I was out of town for most of Oct. with no access to a computer.I am so very sorry for the loss of sweet Lucy.

alaskayorkie · 02-02-2015, 09:15 PM

Thanks. I was sad her last days were spent recovering from a dog bite, but the attack brought us closer. I was caring for her pretty closely during her last months and take some solace in that.

She had a beautiful life with you, as you said, sad she was recovering from that attack when her end was due so soon. Again, so sorry.

Wow, I just read all 11 pages and am now a little blurry-eyed.

What a tremendous loss when Lucy passed. I am so glad she had you taking care of her, sounds like she (and you Littles) get the very best possible lives with you.

I am glad you got a little bit of closure from the idiot's wife. Hopefully, that will keep this from happening again - at least with him. I'm sure there are plenty more irresponsible owners out there, but you have lowered that number by at least one. Thank you for that.

nanahas3 · 02-03-2015, 07:44 PM

I haven't been on much lately and am just seeing this. I am so very sorry for your loss. I know she had a life filled with love and will be waiting for you on the other side.

Graneet · 02-03-2015, 10:26 PM

Oh my goodness poor baby yes go to court. Get your money at least.

Graneet · 02-03-2015, 10:58 PM

Im sorry about the latestoss of lucy. Just read all of the post. Glad you got your money.

Doodlebug · 02-04-2015, 07:11 AM

I have been reading on a web site about dog attacks. It is sickening how often the owner of a vicious dog blames the victim for their dog attacking them. It makes me so mad that people don't take responsibility for their own dog. The pictures of Lucy after the attack are so heartbreaking. I am so sorry this happened to you and Lucy. I can't even imagine the sheer horror of this happening to anyone's dog.

Buster Brown · 02-06-2015, 11:54 AM

Mike I have not been on much and just read about Lucy's passing I am so sorry. I am gald that the owners wife decided to do the right thing in the end. I am sorry though that Lucy had to go through so much trauma and that you and your family's had to deal with so much heartbreak.

Jenna AK · 02-23-2015, 07:12 PM

I know I'm hardly ever in here, but I participated in your poll today about frightened dogs and saw the mention in your signature...I am so, so very sorry to hear that Lucy has left us.

She was a lovely girl and she was so blessed to be part of your family. I am also very glad that you got some justice at last for the attack. Bless you and Eddie and Jillie, my daughter and I think of you guys often, especially as we prepare to leave Alaska this year.
Take care of yourselves and farewell for now, dear Lucy. Sweet dreams at Rainbow Bridge, darling girl. xxxx

Jkpal · 02-24-2015, 04:27 PM

I think your Lucy had a big heart and unlike me, had probably forgiven the whole horrible situation within days. She sounds like one of those amazing dogs who show us the way--the right way...calm, easy, loving; what a great gal. May God bless and help you heal. When it comes to loss of a loved one, aren't we all still children? What hurts, hurts and nobody can make it all better (just yet, anyway),
