I am so very sorry about this. There are so many irresponsible owners out there. I know your heart is broken and there is nothing we can do here but try to comfort you and be here for you while you grieve your loss.

WOW, I'm so sorry to hear this! I am in tears reading your story. I do know how you feel about having that image in your head. My Gus was attacked in our own yeard if front of us as well. The cries are and will always be vivid in my head. I was very fortunate that Gus life was saved.

Now as far as animal control goes,,, They did come out right away. The owners were not home at the time but the dog was lose and when I went to go tell them what their dog had done, she was sitting in front of their front door growling at me. So I did not take a chance. I called the police because we have lots of kids on the block and although this dog was always out walking the streets and usually would play with the kids, I did not trust her one bit! Animal control came and she ran to the back yeard when the owners pulled up. They were asked to show shot records to make sure they were all caught up. And were fined and were warned to fix the gate and any repairs that she had made to be getting in and out of the yeard. It's sad to say,,, but it took 2 more attacks resulting in the death of both for animal control to finally come and take the dog. With the second attack they did nothing! There was no real proof that she did it. Even though all signs were there that she did. Nobody seen a thing. It took a third time for them to finally take the dog away. In both cases they were fined and in my case they did pick up the vet bill. The last one a puppy who was playing with the kids also in their own yeard, died right there and there.

I will keep you and thought and prayer. May your little Kramer rest peacfully. Sending you and Maddie huggs from both me and Gus!

Sad I read your post earlier...

I couldn't reply at that time, it was too hard. Everytime I read about a big dog attacking a yorkie, I see my little Angel on her last day, and it makes me weep.

I am so sorry for your loss. I know how you feel. It's awful. I felt so guilty, like it was my fault and there must have been something I could have done to prevent it, it all happened so fast... But I have come to terms with the idea that it was just "her time", and hopefully you will someday too.

Take care of yourself through this difficult time. I am so very sorry.

We were just out for our after work walk, my little yorkie Kramer, on one side and his little Chihuahua buddy, Maddie on the other side (both on leashes of course). They both love to go for walks; it’s the highlight of their day. We came upon another owner out walking her two dogs on the other side of the street. My dogs both started barking as they love to greet other dogs but I could tell by the way the other owner was holding her dogs that they might not be friendly so we stayed on our side of the street. The next thing I knew her black lab came flying across the street at us. I was in the process of picking up my babies to protect them but the lab got Kramer mid-air. He wouldn’t let go even though the owner was holding her dog and I repeatedly kicked him. When he did finally release my little Kramer, he was unable to move. I rushed him to the animal hospital but Kramer’s spine had been severed and they couldn’t save him. He was in so much pain; I had to have him put to sleep. They said that he wouldn’t survive and I couldn’t stand to see him in pain. I can’t get the picture of him not being able to move out of my head and him crying in pain before they put him to sleep. I feel so guilty that I didn’t protect him.

I didn’t call Animal Control for 3 days because I was so upset and couldn’t even talk about what happened with out bawling. Because I waited 3 days to call them, I was told they could not do anything except give the dogs owners a warning. I can’t believe that they aren’t going to check to ensure that the dog will not harm anyone else’s pet or child. The owners said that they wouldn’t walk the dog anymore and just let him out in there fenced in backyard. I’m so mad that nothing is going to be done to the dog. What if he goes after someone’s child?

Does anyone know if I could bring a suit against the owners?

Maddie and I miss Kramer so much. It’s been 2 weeks since it happened and Maddie just keeps waiting by the front door and crying wondering when Kramer is going to come home. We are both heartbroken.

Kramer we’ll love you forever and look forward to seeing you again someday.

Love always,
Mommy



Oh sweetheart!
I am so sorry for everything that you have been through.. I'm not sure what to say at this time, except that it will get easier in time. I know it doesn't seem like it now. But with time, you will see.
About not being able to have any help from animal control about the visious attack. I would contact a lawyer. Most of them offer free consultations. And it won't hurt anything to call. I agree with you, if that dog would do that to a little yorkie, there is no telling what else it is capable of. I would contact a lawyer. Tell them everything, even about calling the animal control people. And then go from there. If there is nothing that they can do, then you will atleast know you tried.
But I am very proud of you for wanting to do everything you can to make sure that this never happens again. It takes lots of courage to do that.
I'm so sorry that you had to post about this, when you are such a newbie to yorkie talk. I really hope that I can help you in some way. Please know that we are all here for you anytime, day or night, there is always someone here to talk, and offer advise. If there is ANYTHING I can do to help you, please feel free to pm me. Talk to you soon. God Bless you!
Rest in peace

Kramer

I just want to thank you all for your thoughtfulness and your support. Maddie and I are starting to feel a little bit better. At least I can sleep and eat now. I put together a photo album of Kramer and pulled together all the video I had of him and that seemed to help. He had such a good life even if it was only 8 1/2 years. I got him when he was 3 months old and he used to even fly with us on vacations if we were going someplace I could take him. He never suffered any abuse like some of the poor little yorkies I have read about in the adoption links. He was always loved and never went hungry.

I am thankful for the wonderful 8 years that he gave us. Maybe someday I will even get another little yorkie to remind me of my Kramer but I won't even consider another dog until I get a fenced in yard.

Thanks again,
Terri and Maddie

Default Kramer and Maddie

I just wanted to try to add this picture of Maddie and Kramer. It was taken right after I adopted Maddie 3 years ago. Kramer had a bad haircut here but you can still see how cute he is.

I hope you can see it.
