Im so sorry for your loss, RIP sweet baby.

Oh, what a devastating loss. Thank you for posting because it is another reminder to make sure your entrances and exits are protected because pups are so fast.

I cannot imagine your pain but do realize your loss.

Warmly, Deborah

Thank you to everyone for your kind words. This is hard, very hard. I had no idea a dog could touch my life the way she did. I'm also very concerned about my friend. I remind him it was an accident, it could have happened anywhere. He wasn't a dog person but he loved this little dog. He is not doing well.

There will never be another Mighty Mouse. I'm not sure I could bare to get another one. I would be so scared because they are so little. I feel so irresponsible, like maybe I shouldn't own another little dog. I suppose with time I'll get through this. I hope my post was a good reminder for all.

Thank you all again. I think this helps the healing process. Mouse's Mom:aimeeyork

I am so sorry for the tragic loss of Mighty Mouse, I know your heart is broken and hurting right now. There is nothing anyone can say to make the pain go away but take heart in the joy MM gave you in the years she was with you.
It was short but from your post she taught you a lot in her time with you.
Cherish your memories of her and she would not want you or your friend to blame yourselves. Accidents happen unfortunately.

RIP Mighty Mouse

I am so sorry for your lost

Oh I do feel your pain. Your Mouse must've been very special.
I also lost my first yorkie in June to an accident. He was only 11 months old. If you need to talk to someone who has been where you are, please pm me. There are many here who share your pain and will pray for you.
May God bless your little Mouse as she travels the Rainbow Bridge.

I'm so sorry for your loss, and because of it I'll be extra careful with our garage door even though it does have a sensor.

:aimeeyork Hi Donna, Are you saying you went through this exact thing or something similar? I don't mean to drudge up bad memories or the past but it would just help to know someone else has gone trough this, how you dealt with it, what they did, etc. I keep hearing her yelp and then remembering her little body laying there. I pray the vision will go away and soon. As one friend put it, it's a nightmare you keep hoping is not true.

My friends sent me to PetAngel and made arrangements for her. They are trying to help me find closure and move on. I thought it was very sweet. I'm blessed to have such wonderful friends.

How long before you got a new baby? I know that decision is personal, I'm just curious. Pet Loss recommendations tell you to get over your grief before attempting another pet. However, I have also seen some people say that went right out and got another dog.

Mom said I had a "strange" relationship with my dog. I didn't understand until this happened. I don't have children so I treated my dog as my child. Perhaps I did put to much into this relationship but I told myself she would be with me for some time. I did not keep in mind how fleeting life is even for our 4-legged kids. I think it's just the shock of what happened that is making this so hard. I am open to lots of pointers, comments, suggestions.

Right now another thing bugging me is that I will be judged some how for being a "stupid" or a "careless small dog owner". Friends remind me you just can't protect them from everything. Those that have children (human) remind me it's the same thing.

Thank you all for "listening". Mouse's Mommy

Hi Donna, I thought I sent a response but it disappeared so I'm re-sending. Sorry if this is a repeat.

Are you saying you experienced the exact same thing or something similar? I don't mean to drudge up old memories or the past but I was wondering what happened, how you got through it, what did you do, how did you heal, etc. I just keep hearing her yelp and I remember her laying there. It's like a friend said, it's a nightmare and you keep thinking it will end.

My friends made burial arrangements at PetAngel to help me find closure. I am blessed to have such wonderful friends.

My mother said I had a strange relationship with my dog but I didn't understand until this happened. Perhaps I put too much into this relationship but I don't have children so Mouse was my 4-legged baby. I figured she would be with me for a very long time. I took that for granted but I won't anymore. One thing I do know, however, that Mouse knew she was loved. Nothing she did ever upset me. She was the perfect dog for me. I showered her with love and affection constantly. Even the day she died when I got home I put her up on my lap and just rubbed her all over and let her wiggly, jolly self know how much she meant. (I thank God I did that and I remember that!)

I also know it's a personal choice but how long did you wait before you got another pet after this? Pet Loss resources suggest waiting until you get over your grief but others went right out and got another pet and found it theraputic. I'm just curious about how others delt with this. I am choosing to wait a while. I had no idea a little 4.5lb dog would have such a huge impact on my life. She was amazing. :)

Another thing that bugs me right now is that others will judge me as "stupid" or a "careless" small dog owner. I know I need to get over this. I thought I protected her from everything possible - she had a doggie car seat, went for regular examinations and shots, I watched her when she was out - never out there alone - I had doggie steps, used a body harness versus a collar, etc. This experience just devastates me.

My friends, the ones with human babies, try to console me by reminding me you can't protect them from everything.

I'm taking this day by day and telling myself this too shall pass. I miss her. She was my world! I am open to any pointers, suggestions, comments.

Thanks! Mouse's Mommy:aimeeyork
