Talula was the sweetest baby ever My 5 year old Talula had to be put to sleep today. My poor baby could not walk, move, eat drink, use the potty or play(her favoritest thing ever) because she hurt her neck. A form of AAI I believe. She went from happy playing dog to the saddest crying baby that would break your heart. I console myself with the fact that every single day was filled with happiness for her. She was the best dog ever, carried around like a princess and loved more than life. The baby of our family. I blame myself for my stupid desire to have a small dog. She was about 3 1/2 pounds. I failed her. She didn't die of old age, as a dog should. She died because of her frailness while doing something as simple as playing with a ball and getting that squeaker out by shaking it heartily. I hate myself so much for this. I will never replace her. |
I'm so sorry for the loss of your sweet Talula. My heart is breaking for you. RIP Little Sweet Girl. You will be greatly missed, and loved forever. |
I'm so sorry for your loss. Please try not to blame yourself as there are some things we just don't have control over. Talula wouldn't want that. You didn't fail her. You gave this little girl so much love and a life of happiness. You were a good mommy. She will always be in your heart. Rest in peace, sweet Talula. |
I'm so sorry for your loss. Please do not blame yourself. Rest in Peace, Talula. |
This post is very sad. I first just want to say how sorry I am for the loss of your baby, Talula. This story hits me personally, as I just lost my precious baby, Ace, he was only 4. He was only 3 pounds, but very healthy. It's a long story, but he had an obstruction and we thought it was just a little stomach upset, which he sometimes got. The vet misdiagnosed him as a stomach virus and kept him overnight. She calls the next day and said it couldn't be that, so we had to rush him to ER. He had surgery and they found a hairball half the size of a fist. He had six inches of his intestines removed but survived surgery. A few hours later his lungs filled with fluid and he went into cardiac arrest. They couldn't save him. I understand how you feel about blaming yourself, that is exactly how I feel. I am so heartbroken, he was our baby and my world. It is especially tough when they go young, it's so unfair and nauseating. My little boy won't get to grow old with me, so heartbreaking. It's been a month since he passed and it hasn't gotten any easier. I was seeing that she didn't like walks and liked to be carried. That was just like my little Ace, I always carried him, as he didn't like walks, except at the beach. lol. Ace and Talula are being carried by angels now until we are able to carry them again someday. Take Care and if you ever want to talk message me. BTW, she was a very pretty little girl. |
Oops, I think I read the bio on Lola, who doesn't like walks. Sorry... |
sorry to hear about your little girl, it's not your fault you wanted a small yorkie because it seems like that is all the rage and until you get on YT you don't realize that our obsession with "toy" yorkies does not always result in a healthy dog. Once you heal just tell her story that will be the best way to honor your beautiful girl. |
I think those of us who have lost babies all feel guilty in one way or another. It wasn't your fault. Even the best of vets make mistakes and we are just all human and all we can do is try to do our best. I am so sorry for your loss of your little girl but when the time comes be willing to share your love with another baby that needs you. You will not be replacing the baby you lost but willing to share your love with another. I have lost 3 in the past 5 years and it is very hard. But, it helps so much to have one to give your love too. RIP sweet baby and God bless you and comfort you. |
I'm so sorry for your loss:( It is NOT your fault!!! If she had AAI, that is a genetic condition. There are many times no symptoms until they just move their neck too hard, or wrong, and bam, there it is. Can the vet tell you if AAI was present? If so, I'd let her breeder know. Again, I am so very sorry for the loss of your lovely little girl:unlove: |
1 Attachment(s) This was our baby. She was 5 but acted like a puppy, looked like a puppy and had such spunk! She tore the squeakers out of every toy she could get her paws on and never wanted to be alone in a room, she would bark(sounded more like a chirp) so get someone to be with her. |
Thank you for sharing a picture of your baby. She is so beautiful! Again, I am so sorry for your loss. I know your heart is broken. I pray your hurt will become more bearable as the days go by. |
So terribly sorry for the loss of your darling little girl. I feel your pain as I read your story about Talula and understand the sense of loss as I lost my Peanut Man one month ago today. It was a normal day and he ran outside to play with his furr family and one second was with us and the next gone. Vet thinks may have been a heart attack. He was only 4 1/2 and I miss him terribly. Keep faith in knowing that you gave your baby the best life possible full of love and that she is now back to her happy healthy self playing with all those that have passed before her at Rainbow Bridge. Take care of yourself and your other little darling and if you ever want someone to vent with I would be glad to chat. |
My heart hurts for your loss. I do hope that one day you will be able to love another sweet baby as much as you loved Talula. I know it took me about 4 years to get over the grief of a beloved dog, but now I have my Presley. I could not imagine my life without him. Her injury was not your fault. Anything could have happened. I am so sorry. |
What a beautiful girl... I am so sorry for your loss. RIP Talula |
1 Attachment(s) Know that you are not alone in the loss of your baby and a whole lot of us here have experienced what you are going through. Guilt is part of the grieving process, I know, I had it too. I pray for you to find peace of mind in your grieving process and I am here if you need an ear. |
