I tried to save you...RIP sweet baby.

[Micah my love]

RIP Big dog

[yorkietalkjilly]

Thank you for helping this guy. Must have ripped your heart out to see that and you're probably still crying. R.I.P., sweet dog!

Carmen,

Sorry that you had to experience "big dog" passing away. I think god put you there on purpose so that "big dog" wasn't alone. Thank you for holding him so that he passed knowing love. (hugs)

[Maximo]

Carmen, I am so sorry you had to go through this. You were so good to stop and stay with the dog until he passed. I went through the same thing last year with a small poodle that was running in a busy street. Everyone stopped their cars, but one van barreled through and hit the dog before speeding off. I held the dog until he died.

I know that gut-wrenching sadness and the sounds. Wishing you peace and comfort.

{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}

He was so sweet. A gentle giant. Many cars stopped and I had to tell them all I'd already called 911 and my emergency vet, who told me to apply pressure until someone got there. Not much else I could do...the cops took him and I had to drive home crying.

The autobody guy had seen him get hit by 2 different cars before he could get to Big Dog. He pointed the cops in the direction they left in. How heartless can people be?

Big Dog was sweet...probably very goofy, and definitely loving. He wasn't scared of me, I didn't worry he would bite me. He put his head in my lap and we cried together until the angels took his soul to the Rainbow Bridge and eased his pain.

Oh, that made me cry The silver lining in this is that the poor baby didn't die alone, he had a caring person holding him You did a good thing. The people that hit him and didn't stop, well, I hope Karma takes care of them

[LILBIT1]

Ty for stopping, and showing compassion and love. I'm so glad he didn't die alone. RIP

[bcsouthpaw]

Made me bawl RIP Big boy.

how sad, sorry you had to go through that but nice he had someone like you that loves dogs there at the end. Could you tell if he was wearing a collar.

Nope, no collar but I suspect he wasn't a stray because he was pretty hefty. Well fed. And didnt act afraid of all the people around him.

I hope they scanned him for a chip so they could notify the owners. I'm not sure what the procedure is.

Oh Carmen this is just so very sad. I am glad that you were there to be with him when he passed and he wasnt alone.

May he RIP.

He probably got loose or something. . Poor baby. Some people are just heartless. I don't understand at all. Really glad you were there for him.

[anniernc]

Bless your heart for trying to help that poor baby. I'm so thankful that you were there to hold him until the end.

[CouversMom]

That poor baby... I feel so horrible for him. Ran over twice? Gosh... I'm glad you stopped and comforted him for his last moments

RIP sweet baby...
