I'm so sorry you lost baby Olive.

I can't go through this post without expressing how thankful I am for the kind and caring words everyone is sharing. It is such a comfort to me.
Today, Olive's best friend (a 7.5 month old maltese, Holly) got spayed. Thankfully she made it through with flying colors. (Needless to say, I prayed all morning for her.) After I heard that she was okay, the floodgates opened up, and I cried my eyes out. While I was happy that Holly made it fine, I couldn't help thinking about why my little Olive didn't make it. It was a very painful day for me. We may never know why, but I pray that this pain goes soon. I miss her so much.

So sorry to read about your loss. RIP little Olive.

I feel your pain. So sorry you lost little Olive. I lost Willie on New Year's Eve about two years ago. Rushed him 50 miles to an Emergency Vet clinic only to have him seizure and die just as we arrived. He had a urinary obstruction. I still remember him every day, but the pain is not as sharp. We have three other Yorkies and they worked very hard to bring me out of it. I hope you can bring yourself to allow another puppy to help ease your heart break...if not now, soon.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Remember the good times with Olive, it will help to relieve some of the pain.

I am so sorry for your loss.

milu was 2.6 lbs when she got spayed. i was very very nervous about it. but i know exactly what you mean about the pressure to get them spayed 'in time'...

for all the worried mommies who also need to spay/neuter their little furbabies, i guess all i can say is that it is rare that dogs die from the spay surgery...so, the good outweighs the bad...

do you think olive was allergic to anesthesia? you know as in humans, some people also die from anesthesia. do you think that was the case? or is that not the case because the blood work indicated that she would be fine with anesthesia?

I am very sorry, I hope you are feeling better.

I know you're devastated...don't let "non-dog" people make you feel bad or frivolous for mouring your loss...only dog people really understand what our dogs mean to us...you are in my prayers

veganlass · 01-22-2009, 08:55 PM

We had a dog some years ago that happened to her. She wasnt a small yorkie but a large crossbreed collie.

We decided to have her spayed at three yrs old and she also died under the anaesthetic. The vet said she went out like a light. Post mortem showed she had a congenitally small heart for a dog that size and an abnormally small lung.

So you little one could ave had something undetectable since birth.

I know how you must be feeling because we also was so gutted and felt as if we had taken a lamb to the slaughter. As to us we had taken a healthy dog in and came out with nothing.

Sending you more hugs of comfort. I does seem like the pain just won't go away, it takes such a darn long time anyway. My Sachi's ashes are in box on near my desk, and I still look over and think of her and cry. My new pups have totally taken over my life, but I do miss my Sachi still after 10 months and know I always will.
