My Little CallieFlower =(
 

This happened a little over a month ago .. I didn't post it right away because I wasn't ready to start talking about it. My little Callie died suddenly a week before my birthday last month. She was 3 years old, and just 4 lbs. She had the most unique personality, and loved everyone. She was my other Yorkie's (Glory) best friend. They slept in the same crate at night, slept on the back of the couch together, wandered in the field together and chased the same damn mouse behind the cabinets together for the past 4 months. (It also finally died after a large dose of poison.)

I am not entirely sure what happened ... it was a mildly brisk Saturday morning, and my husband and I took the dogs for a walk down the long driveway to the mailbox to get the mail and newspaper. We walked down and back up and the dogs were playing in the grass like normal. When we got back up the hill, we started throwing a stick for our lab mix Cleo, and Callie and Glory were running around and chasing Cleo like always. I turned around to say something to my husband, and then turned back only to find my beloved little Callie laying on the ground motionless.

We hurried and brought her inside to try to revive her and were getting ready to make a trip to the vet, but she just wasn't there any more. One eye bulged out and her gums and tongue turned violet blue. A vet tech friend said those two symptoms are consistent with suffocation, but we didn't see her eat anything, and she wasn't known for eating random things off the ground (unless of course it was chicken poop or other sort of animal dropping).

We wrapped her in one of her favorite fleece blankets and put her in an oversized nike shoe box and buried her in a boulder marked grave on our property. In funeral attendance was myself, my husband, Cleo and Glory. Glory didn't understand why her buddy was in box and promptly started to bark and tried to dig her up .. twice. It was so sad and I cried for days. I know my Glory was mourning. To make her feel better, I let her start sleeping in the bed with my husband and I and I think that has helped.

Callie will be sorely missed and I think of her often. I miss her "CallieKisses" and her happy go lucky attitude. She was loved by everyone and she loved everyone.

I posted a few pictures of her. The one of her in slathered in Peanut Butter was taken a few months ago when she got stuck in a rat glue trap, and the other taken just after a bath back in the spring.

I am sorry for your loss. I know how it is to lose a baby quickly and with no warning. Give Glory lots of hugs and kisses, she needs them as much as you do.

I am so very, very sorry. Sending deep sympathy....

I am so sorry for you loss. I can't imagine what you must be going through. Sending prayers your way for your family both skin and fur. May your sweet memories of Callie always be close to your heart.

I am so sorry you lost your sweet baby.

Callie
 

Callie was very special to me. She was unique although I could never put my finger on it. It was just over the top cuteness. She was very small and sweet as she could be. Rachel has a big family of Yorkies in her house and Callie really stood out to me. I would often think of how I would like to have a clone of her. I was very sad and depressed to hear that she went on. R I P Callie girl ... see you in heaven one day.

I am so very sorry for your loss. RIP Callie. :(

Ohhhh....I\'m so very sorry!! Gone but NEVER forgotten. Hugs XOXOXO

I am so sorry to hear of your devastating loss. CallieFlower was obviously loved dearly and will be missed greatly. May she RIP.

Hugggs to you all

She was beautiful, even covered in peanut butter. =]
I am truly sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet little dog.She was so young. I know just how sad you are as I also lost my Colin 2 months ago. If you need someone to chat with email me. I am still having a hard time dealing with my loss,maybe if I tried to help someone else it would make it easier.
God Bless your little baby.

Thank you for the sweet comments everyone. I heard a story the other day that made me feel better that I would like to share with everyone.

A man came to purchase a puppy from my mom recently. He had been in some sort of accident and was very badly injured and almost died. When they took him to the hospital, they tried everything they could to keep him awake, but he slipped into a temporary coma. He said he remembers going to Heaven, and that it was beautiful there. When he walked through the door, he said he saw every single pet he had ever had in his entire life. He woke up a few hours later and healed up perfectly. He went home a few days later.

I thought that was so sweet. I hope to see my little Callie in Heaven.

i lost my baby almost 3 months ago. it was tough. it was hard to look at her pictures. Believe it or not it does get better. Roxy was only 5. she left me 2 weeks after her 5th birthday:(

I\'m so sorry for you. That made me cry when you said your other little one tried to dig her up.I guess it does\'nt matter now but it does sound like she either choked or had an allergic reaction to something.My sympathys to you.
