The dreaded decision I am new to this site. I joined on 4/8 hoping to share the joy of owning three yorkies. With much heartache, I am now sharing the loss of one of my girls. Without any warning, my Abby stopped eating. Very strange. I could tell she was interested because she kept coming back. I hand feed my girls. So I tried to look in her mouth. I felt she had a lump in her throat and swollen glands. Called the vet, couldn't get an appt till next day. Overnight, she got worse, by morning I was going to the vet without an appt. After a long day, my husband and I made the decision to put her down. I can't believe this could happen so fast. My 3 cuties are now two lost souls, one of the girls is her baby. Has anyone ever seen grief in their dogs eyes? How can I help her.? Is the sparkle gone forever? Holly and her mommy were best friends. They did everything together. I never realized what a leader my Abby was. She was not the Alpha, but she was the social director. She was always on the go, smelling and investigating everything. |
Welcome. I am sorry to hear about Abby. When my pom died. one of my yorkies that was close to her seemed depressed for a few weeks. It may take a little time but I do think they get back to their normal self. |
I'm so sorry about the loss of your Abby. I hope your girls get over the loss quickly and can get back to being themselves, so sad. Did you find out what was wrong with her, that made her go downhill so rapidly? |

Years ago when we had to take our Nicki and came home without her, our other Dobie Gretta knew and she Kept going around the vehicle and would not stop, she wouldn't 't eat, I know what your Holly is going through. Gretta seemed to cling to the both of us afterwards, it is so hard to make that last visit to the vet, and it takes a real loving heart to do what one must. my prayers for you too. Glad you found the YT Family site here. Hugs, Patti and Jack |
I am so sorry for the sudden loss of your baby girl. RIP sweet Abby |
I'm so very sorry. Rest in Peace, little one. |
Thank you all so much. I can't express how much your thoughts help. I will give Holly lots of love and attention. Her mother was very special |
I am so so sorry for your loss. When we lost Sasha in September it was really hard on Sophie she looked for her everywhere. I had her little collar with her bell on it and when Sophie heard it ring she jumped up looking for her wagging her tail! :( it eas so sad! But it will get better I promise. Just always remember the good times with her. |
I am so sorry for your loss. When I joined YT I had lost one of my sweet boys suddenly. His twin brother was very effected by him being gone. It did take some time but Buddie came around and is doing so much better. I spent extra time with him and it helped the both of us. I hope that you all will find healing in time. |
So very sorry for your loss. Keeping you and your family in my prayers. |
Keeping you in my prayers. So sorry for your loss. |
So sorry for your loss. RIP Sweet Abby. |
I'm so sorry for your loss. May your sweet angel rest in peace. |
So sorry for your loss! Did they ever find out what was wrong with her? Is it something that the other dogs could catch? That must be so scary! I think that dogs tend to live in the moment... they are missing her now and probably wondering what happened to her but I think that our dogs bounce back quicker than we do.... |

I am so sorry for you and your babies. |
So sorry about your loss When I lost bill at age 14 it wasn't such a shock he had been having a lot of health problems after he jumped of the couch and hurt his back leg and the vet but him on steroids. This caused him to have renal failure after about 1 year my little girl Mollie was sad since they had been play mates and friend since she came home. It took her awhile to get over it. It was about 2 years later I decided to get her a playmate because she wasn't as active. I got Lizzie and she was active and happier than I had seen her in a long time I noticed in the past 6 months she has really slowed down she is now 11. I am terrified of having to do what you had to with your little one it is heart breaking. So I convinced my husband to get 1 more little baby for Lizzie to play with. It now seem like all three are happy and Mollie has but on weight and playing more again. The best advice I can give you is get another Yorkie. It will never replace your lost little angel, but he or she will help your other dogs get past the grieving process faster and I hope will help with your sadness as well |
