Allan -- SO sorry for your loss ... but please know there is/was nothing you could have done. It was just Zack's time, as cruel and unbelievable as that may be. Zack -- being the little man he was -- would not want you to torture yourself in this way. You are going against his wishes to do so. So please, cut yourself some slack. You will naturally be sad as this was such a great friend to you and devastation after a tragedy is only normal. It will lessen, if you let it. And as hard as it may be to even think of getting a new friend, it may be the best thing you can do. You can NEVER replace Zack -- but you can give yourself an outlet for all the love you have that now has no place to go. And the best part of the deal? You get that love back ... Thoughts and prayers are with you as you wrangle through the hardest times. |
Allen My God I am Crying for you right now. This is so very sad that this hapened. He was so young and so adorable. Have fath that he is with the lord and you will see him again. We lost our Ashkie not a Yorkie when he was only 3. I feel your pain. We did get another dog of the same breed. She is not Ashkie And I wouldn't want her to be but she does give us Joy. Remember Zackie for the good times and love he shared and know he is watching over you. I will say a prayer for you and your Wife that that heartache you feel will lessen in time. A great big:love-hug3Hug for you both. |
My heart is breaking for you and your wife. I guess it was just Zack's time to go the Rainbow Bridge. These terrible things happen no matter how careful we are. I pray that your pain heals soon. |
1 Attachment(s) I can't get little Zack off my mind...I hope this doesn't make it harder but thought this poem is something that may help you in your grief...it's beautiful and I want to think all the little Rainbow Bridge dogs are around us all the time in spirit...and little Zack is flying with angels now.... Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there, i do not sleep; I am a thousand winds that blow; I am the diamond glints on snow; I am the sunlight on ripened grain; I am the gentle autumn's rain; When you awakewn in the morning's hush; I am the swift uplifting rush; of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there; I did not die. ** author Unknown ** |
Awww V that was so sweet. |
So So sorry for your loss. I have been thinking about your story and I can not imagine the pain that you are going through. We are sending prayers your way. |
I am so sorry to hear about little Zack. He was such a cutie and I can tell he was very loved! Please don't beat yourselves up with guilt. Sometimes accidents just happen. Please know our prayers and thoughts are with you. |
Thanks V or the poem, and the Rest in peace you made for zack (although it is making me cry). I am going to have it made into a picture, for the inside cover of a journal i am starting to chart my thoughts and try to ease my pain about my pain |

I think that's a good idea for you...also...there are many cities now that offer grief support ..like your local aspca or humane society. Pets are family and are being more and more recognized as such.....It's sad but people never had places to go to talk in the past - which is why this section is SO important...but there are also other outlets for you if you feel the need.....and if you need any help with pictures I'll be happy to help - just say the word ok ?? Hugs... |
[B][COLOR="RedHey V..........in the short time I have been a YT member one thing I have learned for sure is that you are just so nice. That poem was so sweet! *Amie* |
ohhh I'm sooo sorry!!!! This must be sooo terrible. I want to cry just by seeing his picture, I can;t imagine how you are feeling now. I know there is not much I can say to comfort you, but just save the good memories in your heart and time will heal the pain. I know another yorkie will not take Zackie's place, but when the time comes to maybe get one, he will make you happy too. I'll for you and your family. God bless you |
Allan I'm so sorry about Zach, I know you are somewhere between shock because of the accident, grief because he his gone and disbelief because you can't believe he is actually gone. I can relate to the grief and disbelief. On 4/4/04 we lost our English Bulldog and were hearbroken. I remember my husband, daughter and myself sitting on the floor beside her bed crying telling her goodbye and the tears the following day as my husband and I buried her....she was such a part of our family it took a long time to heal. Today, we still miss her and her special "bully" traits, but can now remember without the hurt knowing her time with us was a good time and she left knowing she was loved. In time you will heal also as impossible as that seems today,you will remember little Zach all the joy he brought into your lives and be able to smile without tears. My thoughts are with you. |
the tears are just flowing down my face,, im so sorry for your loss.. i have to get up and away from my dest right now to stop my self from crying... how sad this is.. my heart go out to you and your family |
prayers Just know your baby is still with you in spirit and will wait for you at the rainbow bridge.... the poem made me cry too...I've lost several over the many years of my life and it never gets any easier.... don't be afraid to cry...your baby was worth crying over... prayers from NC roxanne |
Im so sorry for your loss,my hearts aches for you, just take one day at a time,i know when my sister and i lost her baby it took a while for us not to he hear her i know that might sound strange but it took time for us to stop grieving so much,the tinkle of her collar as she walked, even her foot steps,but with time our grief got better, i remember how she loved us so much and how she liked to snuggle. |
oh my, i don't know how you are dealing w this. just me reading this is breaking my heart. i sit here crying for you. i am so very sorry for your loss. i don't have any words of wisdom regarding this but i do know that you have lots of wonderful memories of him. i am sure one day the pain will get better, you will always miss him because you loved him so very much. he will always be in your heart and soul. thank you for sharing your story with us. it has touched me deeply. i hope your heart heals soon. |
Zackie is resting... Zackie's Family, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Fortunately, you are in the right place for support. Lord knows I could not have gotten through my tough time without some wonderful people here at YT. As much as we would like to, nobody can take that pain from you. It is a horrible loss and I'm sure you are still in shock. Just take it one day at a time and know that the pain does heal in time-you will one day look back and just remember the good times. I know I still miss my babies and I'm sure you will always think of Zackie. I highly recommend the critters.com website. You can read about others who have lost their pets here, and if you so choose, you can create a memorial site for Zackie. Please know that our prayers are with you and feel free to write me anytime. So sorry again for your loss... |
Dear Allan, Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Dear Lord, hear our prayer be with Allan, let him know that Zack is forever well in your care, heal Allan's heart and take this pain and let him dwell in peace again. Knowing that each and everyone is loaned from you to love cherish and forever to keep till that time to call back your own. Help Allan to get through this day and each day forward, not looking back only on good memories to cherish with Zack and lead him ahead in the direction you will have it to be, praying that one day there will be another little yorkie for Allan waiting ahead to place in his arms to love and cherish never in comparison to that of Zack, but to fulfill the void that he is feeling. Thank you Lord for hearing our prayer, and for always being here for us and all. Sincerely, Patti and Jack Allan please keep in touch with us. ((((((HUGS))))) from the two of us. |
OMG Allen. He is so cute, and what a tragic loss. I can't imagine what you are feeling right now. Just like when we lose a human everyone grieves at different levels and for different amounts of time. This has got to be a huge shock as it was so unexpected and sudden. Imagine how your wife is feeling too. I hardly know what to say other then I am so very sorry and sad for your loss. I will pray for you to receive some type of peace. These creatures come into our lives and steal our hearts, there is no doubt about it. Kathy |
I am so sorry to hear of Zacks passing... Dont beat yourself up about what you could have done differently.... Just remember we all have to baby proof our homes if we are gonna have a small dog around. It is very sad indeed that this happened, but we are only human and we forget little things like putting up wire so they cant run and fall. I am sure you were a wonderful, loving mommy and daddy to Zack and he had a great life with you and now that he is at peace and playing with all the other dogies at rainbow bridge you can let him go and be at peace with your self. I am again so sorry for your loss.. |
I am so sorry for your loss. Please continue to cry and share your thoughts with us. We will help you heal. Thank you for posting your story, you may not know it now, but you just saved at least one Yorkie life by making people aware of what happened to you and what could happen to anyone of us. I don't know how long the pain will last, but try to remember that Zack will always love you and he will always be will you until the day that you two meet again. He and his love for you will be waiting for you until that day comes. But in the meantime, he doesn't want you to be sad. Try to remember the good times and then turn that into the excitement you will have when you get to spend eternity together. I haven't lost a pet (yet) but I did lose someone so very close to me. The hurt still remains with me, but I know when my day comes, he will be there to greet me, and that makes me smile. :) |
3 Attachment(s) Thanks again for the kind words. Reading this makes me sad, but helps me atthe same time. I am attaching a couple more pictures of Zack. these were taken when he was a baby puppy (about 3 or 4 months old). Finding these pictures and looking at them was so painful, yet, at the same, how can I not post pics of my best friend. Allan |
I'm so sorry this happend to your baby. Sure is rough to go through loosing one of our "children". Especially that way. I'm so sorry this happened. And sure a sad way to learn to keep a door shut. Again, I'm so sorry for your loss. |
I'm so sorry for your loss..words can not express.. He was an adorable little boy.. who I'm sure had a great life with you and your wife. Hopefully this story will make awareness for anyone living in a postion that this could happen.. what a horrible freak accident. I'm so sorry. RIP Zachie |
Your story just broke my heart. I can't imagine how you must be feeling, except I do feel your pain in your words. I just started crying reading what happened to Zackie. My heart goes out to you, & I pray you'll find peace out of this horrible tragedy. |
sorry to hear about your loss:( |
Zackie Allen, My heart broke while reading your post about your beloved little Zackie. I cannot even express my sorrow for your loss. My prayers and thoughts are with you at this sorrowful time. Please extend my condolences on Zackies loss to your wife as well. Again my thoughts and prayers are with you both. Jay :rbyorkie: |
So sorry about your loss :( I can only imagine what it feels like to lose a pet. He is indeed cute. I'm going to go and give my dogs a hug now. Take care |
I am so sorry for your loss!! When its unexpected like that it is really painful...Now is the time for you to grieve your loss and in time ( whatever your time is...) you will feel the pain subside and then you can start replacing that pain with all the good times and thoughts you have of your baby....Know that he is in a better place on Rainbow Bridge and that in spite of the short time he was with you..he lived a good healthy life with you and your wife and maybe in time you can fill that void with another fur baby that I am sure you will love as much as Zach. I pray now that God will give you peace and understanding within your soul so that you can get thru this rough time. God Bless and know you always have your YT family to talk to. I believe I can speak for most of us that we will never get tired of reading any post you have about Zach!!! |
