Positive thoughts and prayers are coming your way from all of us. These accidents are our worst nightmares and no matter how protective of our babies we are we can not prevent them all. Please tell your bf not to blame himself. I have warned my daughter not to play this game with our babies anymore where they run after her and try to bite her socks. At least your story may save some future tragedies.

I have every faith that your baby will pull through this.

I am so sorry this happened to you guys I hope he pulls through! Please keep us updated! (((((( HUGS! ))))) :thumbup:

Prayers to/for you....
 
Prayers are coming out for you, your fiance (who has to feel like total crap about the accident) and, most of all, for your little Joey (mainly because he probably doesn't know how to say them on his own behalf).

You want blue light...you got it!!!!

Just know that the same tenacity that keeps them from getting house broken until they're darned good and ready, applies to their will to live. I have just total faith the little one will pull through!

Be gentle with yourselves!!

Oh, and by the way, I'd be there visiting the puppy too!

Update 9:00 PM!!!
 
Oh my goodness - you all are so supportive and kind!! Thank you so much. We just returned from seeing Joey. He is in an ICU here in NYC, so I'm hoping that he has the best of care, which I believe he does.

Joey is breathing on his own, and he is in a little incubator. We were able to stick our hands through the incubator's door and pet him and I told him how much Mommy and Daddy love him. He wagged his tail and tried to stand, but he is so weak and he laid back down quicky. The vet emergency unit (a team of 5+ doctors who make the rounds 24/7) said that they are very impressed with how he has responded to his medicine, and that they think that Joey might be able to come home on Wednesday!!!!!!! He, of course, will be confined to his crate and except for peeing and eating, he will have to remain in his crate....oh, everyone....I feel like Joey has pulled through a miracle...there is still a chance that he might not pull through, but it sure seems that he is over the hump.

PLEASE keep your prayers coming - your prayers have HELPED so much!!!!! Please keep praying for little Jeoy - Joey needs your love so much. Thank you for caring so much.

Alicia and Joey

I am sooo sorry about your puppy's accident. I just got General Patton last Friday and I can only imagine how sad you guys must be feeling. Let's hope for the best. These Yorkie pups are very energetic and accidents happen. But they are troopers...so hang in there.

Bella, General Patton, & Maria

BeanSprout 06-20-2005 05:38 PM
Great news, Alicia!

I have been sending bluelight and prayers all day. Your story really touched me. Saint Francis has always worked miracles:

Maybe his name should be "Joey-Francis"!!!

Keep the prayers coming, folks!!!

I am so sorry to hear about Joey. All our prayers are with him at this difficult time. Our little yorkies are very strong and courageous, they always get their way and Joey's way will be to recover and get home to Mom and Dad. We will pray for his full recovery.

brosie1823 06-20-2005 05:59 PM
I'm so glad to hear that Joey is doing better! He's quite the little trooper, and it sounds like he'll be home again with you soon. I'm elated that things worked out for the best for you. Linus is sending puppy kisses to Joey for a safe, healthy return home!

ldenise 06-20-2005 06:06 PM
I am glad to hear he is doing better. Still praying here on this end.. Hugs to you all,

It is supposed to be said for 9 consecutive days.

PRAYER FOR OUR ANIMAL FRIENDS


(To make a Novena for a sick pet, say this prayer for 9 consecutive days)

Heavenly Father, the bond we have with our friends of other species is a wonderful and special gift from You. We now ask You to grant our special animal companions your Fatherly care and healing power to take away any suffering they have. They trust in us as we trust in You. Give us, their human friends, new understanding of our responsibilities to these creatures of Yours. Our souls and theirs are on this earth together to share friendship, affection, and caring. Take our heartfelt prayers and bless these ill or suffering animals with healing Light and strength to overcome whatever weakness of body they have:

(Here mention the names of the animals needing prayer)
Joey the Yorkie


Your goodness is turned upon every living thing; Your grace flows to all Your creatures; Your Light touches each of us with the reflection of Your love. Grant long and healthy lives to our special animal companions. Bless their relationships with us, and if You see fit to take them from us, help us to understand that they are not gone from us but only drawing closer to You. Grant our prayer through the intercession of good St. Francis of Assisi, who honored You through all Your creatures. Empower him to watch over our animal friends until they are safely with You in eternity, where we someday hope to join them in honoring You forever. Amen.
This is such a beautiful prayer. I read it out loud to my fiance - he is still shocked at the support we have received from YT. Thank you all, again. Joey thanks you all for your prayers.

I will give you all an update in the morning.

chewysmom 06-20-2005 06:23 PM
Sounds like the worst is over. So glad he is recovering well. I, also, am in NYC so would like to know what vet you are using just in case! Sending lots of positive thought your way and look forward to more updates and a full recovery.

babi1542 06-20-2005 06:34 PM
I just read this post. I also have my baby in the hospital right now. I will be praying along with everybody else for the health of your baby as well as mine. This has been quite a night for these beautiful babies! I hope it stops soon and we only hear good things!

Oh my gosh...while reading your last post about how well Joey is doing, I got shivers up and down my back! Bless his darling little heart! I'll be praying for him...so glad that he's doing so well and you could probably have him home Wednesday...that will be great! Hugs to you and your little Joey! I'll be keeping up on this thread. Have only had time to read lately, but this is one I'll be sure to look for when I get on here!

Maddie-Rudy-Mom 06-20-2005 09:29 PM
Great new about little Joey. Sending good thought Joey's way. From your post it sound like he is getting the best care ever. Before you know it he will be home and back to being a little yorkie terrorist. My prayers are will Joey and you all. Thanks for the update.

We're all still praying for little Joey. Your sweet story about seeing him in the incubator really touched me. What a precious little guy. He wants to be with his mommy so badly and he will get stronger and stronger. Keep us posted!

Benina 06-21-2005 04:02 AM
Never fear Jesus is near !
 
One of my previous Yorkies had an accident kind of similar and he pulled through !!! A young mentally handicapped boy hit the dog with a cricket bat full force from the side on his head. Immediately the dog passed out. We rushed him to the vet and he(the vet) said that he definetly will have brain damage cause his eyes are flickering. Needless to say I just prayed to Jesus and He healed my puppy. He came home after 4 days in ICU.
I will pray for you and ur doggie.

sophiedog 06-21-2005 05:14 AM
Way to go Joey, you hang in there little fella! Guess it did your heart good to see him responsive! We are all still rooting for you and your baby and each in our own way praying and sending positive thoughts! It was really great to hear good news first thing in the morning!

We are so thankful for the good news about little Joey!! Our vet believes that the best medicine for recovering babies is to be cuddled in the arms of their Mom & Dad!! Hopefully you will be doing that soon! We will continue to keep you all in our prayers!! ;)

Debr 06-21-2005 05:24 AM
praying hard for some speedy recoveries.

johnsae 06-21-2005 06:03 AM
Got a call from the vet this morning. Joey is "brighter" today. He is still having trouble breathing because of his lung contusions, but his neurological problems are getting better.

The power of prayer is amazing. I will be able to hold Joey in my arms tonight - I cannot wait. I have missed him more than anything.

Will keep you all updated on his progress.

That's great to here. Brighter is good! Give him a big hug and kiss from all of us when you see him.
