dryoasis88 | 03-16-2013 02:28 PM | Prayers for safe return I just got off the phone with my parents and their dog, Copper, has gone missing. She is 17 years old and has mobility issues. They let her out in the yard this morning and she just vanished. She has been experiencing dementia lately (sitting in the closet and barking, coming to windows and wanting to be let in, not realizing they are not doors). She is a Welsh Terrier. This is very upsetting for me as I grew up with this dog. She was my dog too. I knew that I probably wouldn't see her again, as she was very sick when I was visiting them in December, but her new medication was working well and she was doing ok. She is suffering from adrenal cancer and we were told over a year ago that she had 3 months to live. We knew the end was coming, but not like this.
Also, we lost a dog when I was 12 who ran away and drown in a pool, so this brings back a lot of bad memories.
I just want to ask everyone to pray that someone has found her and taken her into their home. It will go down below freezing where my parents live tonight, so I am just hoping she has a warm place to be right now. My parents think she may have gone off because it was her time. If so, I hope she went quickly and wasn't scared or confused. I am just so upset, I feel helpless. I can't help look for her as I am on a different continent. But I can ask this community, who have supported me and my dog in the past, to send positive thoughts and prayers to my parents. I just want her back and safe. It wasn't supposed to be this way. Send prayers, positive thoughts, anything! |
