| A tragic accident Our sweet baby Oliver was taken from us Wednesday night. It was our fault, it could have been prevented. I know everyone always says "you can't blame yourselves". Oh yes I can. He was in the front yard playing while we set up Halloween decorations. Once he saw a little girl and ran across the street to say hi. He loved saying hi to people. I called him and he came right back, he's never been that brave before. It should have been a sign. I was watching my fiancee, Vinnie, string lights, and my back was to the street. I heard a thump thump and my heart stopped but I knew it wasn't Oliver. He never went into the street. I turned around and saw a big white truck driving away and Oliver lying in the street. I screamed for Vinnie and fell to my knees on the sidewalk. Vinnie ran to the street and picked him up. I said "Is he okay?" and he yelled "Call your vet!" I turned for the door and that's when he said "Oh baby, he's dead, he's dead." I looked in Vinnies hands and saw Oliver twitching madly for a second, his tongue sticking out. Then he was still. We buried him on the beach. He loved the beach. It feels like losing a child. I am so alone here, not speaking the language, not working, having no friends. Oliver was my best friend and my child. We should have been smarter. We should have known better than to let a 3lb black dog run around in our front yard when it was dark out. It could have been prevented, and that is the worst part of the whole damn thing. I am broken, I don't know what to do without him. I expected him to be a part of my life for years, not months. http://i879.photobucket.com/albums/a...rimson/RIP.jpg Last edited by AkCrimson; 10-21-2011 at 04:59 AM. |

| Oh my! I am sooo sorry for your loss, this post made me cry because I lost my Kiwi the same way a month ago today. I am so sorry you only got to spend such a short time with him, I feel like I was robbed of my little Kiwi to early as well. The only advice I can give is it does get better one day at a time. I still think of him and miss him everyday, but I can finally smile at his memories instead of cry. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. RIP little Oliver

| Your post has tears flowing down my face. I am so sorry for such a tragic loss, I know Oliver was only with you a few months, but the love you have for him goes deep. I hope that your heart can heal from this tragedy and I know it will take time. RIP baby Oliver.

YT 1000 Club Member | Oh dear, I am so very sorry to hear about your loss. May your Oliver rest in peace and watch over you. I read your story and that of Kiwi's and hugged my little Romeo really tight as I can't imagine life without him.

| Thanks everyone. It's good to know other people understand. I am truly sorry to hear about Kiwi. It's hard enough to lose a loved pet. But when they are ripped away from us so soon and so violently it's a huge shock to our hearts. Last night my fiancee and I went for a walk around the block. I took his leash/harness with me, and tried to imagine he was there with me in spirit for one last walk. It was hard. But I am trying to move on. All Oliver ever wanted was to have fun and be happy, I can't imagine he would want to see me sad. So I am trying to be strong. For me, for my fiancee, and for Oliver. May he have all the zoomies and cuddles his little heart could desire in heaven. |

| This is so very sad. Sometimes I read stories like this and cry about the loss of our little ones and tell myself I won't read posts about loss again. But I do anyway because I ,too, have lost a dear little girl and this is the place to tell your story and know that there are caring people that understand your pain. I am so sorry about Oliver, Kiwi and all the rest of our babies that have passed for any reason. He was adorable. Cherie
