Thank you!!

I was sitting here reading your thread, and enjoying all the playfulness, when your signature caught my eye. I couldn't believe such a playful, vivacious boy could be gone, so I had to read on. Your update has me bawling at my computer. I'm so sad for your loss. I know how hard it must be missing your little piwate. What a terrible accident!
I think you should absolutely open your heart for a baby Yorkie, but only when you are ready. The fact that you are thinking about it enough to post on YT tells me that you probably are.
A little girl will never take Bucky's place, but you will be surprised at how much love you will have for her. And in time, the pain of losing Bucky will fade into only the beautiful memories.
Love and puppy kisses from Zaccheus,
Diane

Oh my God...I cannot believe this. I am so sorry but Bucky will be smiling down on you & your new little girl...he knows you have more love to give.

RIP...Bucky.

Oh my gosh, I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. :(

Poor baby, I will keep him in my prayers :)

I am so incredibly sorry for your loss! I am sure when you see that little baby girl your heart will be full of love and happiness. I truly wish you the very best and you are such a strong person in writing about Bucky! He was lucky to of been loved by a great mother.

I am so sorry about the loss of Bucky . I started reading from the start, before I noticed it the thread began last year, but I felt so bad for your little boy, losing his eye, then very happy he recovered.
Then, I got to your latest pot, where he tragiclly lost his life, words can't express how deeply saddened I felt by reading this. You have your precious memories of Bucky. When the time is right , you will know in your heart it is , to bring home a new yorkie puppy. Best wishes to you and your family.

Oh-I am in shock. I too just read the entire post for the first time. I am numb. I am so sorry for the loss of your precious baby. Thank you for the post, I have 5 yorkies who play outside often. They are always supervised, meaning someone is always out there, but honestly I never look for hawks. I live maybe an hour from you. I will do things differently from now on for sure!

I wasn't around either when you were on here before, but reading your post just broke my heart. I cannot even imagine how you must have felt when this happened. You are absolutely right, you will never replace Bucky, but having another little furbaby to love can only make the memories of him even sweeter in time. Bless you for what you've been through.:love:

Oh my god. i am SO SO sorry for your loss- it is understandable that you would not want to be around YT for a while. I think 6 months is a good length of time- if you feel ready. I think Bucky would want you to have a puppy again to help heal your heart. Cna't wait to meet your new little girl on here :) She will have a very special angel watching over her.

You know when you are ready!
 

I have not been on YT long...haven't yet learned how to upload a photo but I do know the loss of a pet. A year ago Memorial Day weekend my beloved Bichon Emma went into a seizure...I thought I had lost her...she was 13 years old and had been failing from a heart murmur. Her teeth were bad but her heart was too weak to undergo anethesia. I raced her to the vet that Tues. She was put on medication to help with the infection.

I thought I had more time....I took her to a grooming appt that Sat. I wanted to have her look her best for my grown children to visit as they knew her time was approaching. I dropped her at the groomer...left...never turned on my cell...ran some errands thinking that I would be with her and not have to leave her. When I got home there was a frantic call from the groomer letting me know that Emma had passed not 5 minutes after I had left! Her heart was too weak. I was a total mess....I cried...I cried...I cried. I had her through:hug: good and bad times...and she was my soul. I thought I will NEVER get another dog.

Then about 2-3 months after her death I found myself thinking of getting another Bichon. I then realized that would be unfair as no other Bichon could even come close to replacing Emma and that it would be Emma I would expect to see when I opened my door at the end of my workday.

So I tabled my idea of another dog...one day I was online and just started to do some research...one thing led to another and before I knew it I came upon a website where I saw a picture of a puppy I couldn't forget.

I had thought a year would go by before I was ready...well that was not the case...Emma had passed the first week in June....and Bella came Sept. 26. She is a Morkie...combination of Yorkie and Maltese. I swear that my Emma sent her to me. She is the sweetest dog I have ever owned. She sleeps with me...none of my other dogs ever did...she goes with me whenever possible and she truly is the love of my life.

Finally, I had purchased my Emma a new toy the week before she passed...I never threw it away. Now with Bella it is the toy she goes to every day...almost as though she knows the connection and how she came to be mine. So I say you will know when YOU are ready. Be open...the right dog WILL find you. Healing takes time...I keep a picture of my Emma next to a picture of my Bella... Good luck to you.

So sorry for the loss of your baby boy. I really think that a new girl could help to heal your heart. I lost my little 2 yr old Yorkie girl last year and YT was a great place for support. I got a new girl very soon after and she really did help to ease the pain. Though I still miss my Baby Chloe, Sophie has helped to bring a smile to my face. Good luck and please keep us updated on your new girl. HUGS!!!!!

I am so very sorry that you have gone through so much pain. I wish I had something to say to help.... I'm glad that you are back here on YT and hopefully you know that we feel for you and are here for you if need be. I think it would be a good thing to have a new baby around. Perhaps this baby is being sent to you from Bucky. God bless you and your decision.

Thank you all very much for all of the kind words and sympathy. I love the YT community because so the kindness and support here.

Diane - I started crying again when I read that it made you cry. I don’t have any close friends that can relate to what it is like to let a yorkie into their lives. So they didn’t understand what I was going through. It broke my heart every time one of them would say “Oh, you can just get another dog.” I just wanted to scream at them! They didn't understand at all. I feel so much better now that I have posted about it here on YT.

Luvfla – Thank you for everything. You really helped keep me positive during the surgery and I am very touched by you concern. You truly are a good friend!

Clmj – That is exactly how I feel! I couldn’t have described it better. You know exactly what I am going through then! Maybe a little girl will help with the healing process.

To everyone else that I didn’t reply directly to: Thank you! You encouragement and support in greatly appreciated! I am glad to be back on YT!

Good God. I am heartbroken right along with you. I read your post earlier about Bucky's eye and was so happy things were going well.... then this tragedy!!!!
All my thoughts, prayers and well wishes go out to you. I can't even imagine the pain you've endured watching your baby be carried off then dropped to his death. I sit here with tears flowing wishing I could just hug you tight. Bless your heart....
Your new darlin will find you..and you will know. With Bucky's help.....


*tears* bless you and Bucky
