She wasnt hit by the car. She ran into the car. Got xray report back and she has severe internal injuries that are to extensive to repair. She is being put down tomorrow. This is the longest night I think I have spent for a couple of years. I am going to get another little yorkie in a few weeks. :cry:

My daughter got to her 1st and picked her up, had an abraison on the inside of her leg. Was scared but nothing was broken, thank the Good Lord. Took her for a walk to see if she limped or anything all seemed fine but wanted to be held which is unusual for her. Monday she seem lethargic but ate and drank some. Tuesday was more lethargic so I took her to the pet clinic, told me she was sore but would be fine in a few days. Later that day she began vomiting up whatever she ate and had diarhea which was black in color. I know that could mean internal bleeding. Took her to a regular vet today. They ran blood test which were normal and took x-rays which they will have the results tomorrow. Said she should be ok in a couple of weeks if not I am to return her to the vet. She is only 13 months and VERY active. Her just laying there is not like her. Is this normal after such a accident such as this? I lost my husband 2 years ago and last fall I adopted her from a rescue group. Elizabeth has put activity in my life after my husbands passing. I can't have any thing happen to her. Any advise would be greatly appreciated:4lc:

This is truly heartbreaking, maybe you should seriously think about not getting another dog.

Yes, poor dog. I missed in the orig. post that she was walked and not taken to the vet immediately until Furbaby Friend pointed that out and when I reread that post carefully, it just made me sicker than I was. Serious internal injuries and you are being forced to go for a walk, etc., instead of critical care. Poor, poor baby. Thanks, FF, for being pointed about it!

I mean I've seen threads where owners are neglectful of medical care for their pups, but nothing as OBVIOUS as this. I mean how can you WATCH your tiny dog impact a car and NOT rush it to the vet???? Seriously, I don't know what is wrong with people. :mad::mad::mad::thumbdown:thumbdown:thumbdown

This person should NEVER own another dog in my opinion. If you don't have enough common sense to realize when a vehicle that weighs a ton (literally) HITS your pup that is five months and weighs what MAYBE 6lbs could cause SEVERE trauma and requires and immediate vet visit... yeah going to stop typing again.
