I have read all the posts in this thread, and my heart goes out to you. I somewhat understand some of the things you have gone through. Please know your not alone!
When I lost Amber I was totally devastated. It was my birthday Dec. 10, 2007. She was outside with our dogs to go to the bathroom. One of our Rotties had her by the neck, I was in shock. We ran out there got the three small dogs in the house along with Amber. By the time we got Amber in the house she was gone.
Amber had been going through some health problems but was getting better. Then she lost her life due to one of our other dogs. My first thought was to put our other dog down, but I delayed that, for I knew it was a reaction.
I was so heart broken, I never felt so much greif over one of my animals dying.
I buried her in our yard. My roommate offered to dig her grave, but I said no, I had to do it, for my own self. I placed her bed, blanket and favorite Toy with her. Around her grave, I planted 16 tulips which should come up this spring.
I miss my baby girl so much. She was 16 years of age. We have been working with our vet and also a trainer to help our other dog. She is doing much better. They stated we could never trust her ever again with small dogs. We have two, a Manchester Terrier and a Beagle puppy. The Big dogs eat and go out seperate from the little ones. We have had to do alot of changes around the house with all the dogs. At first it was a challange.
I learned the best thing I could do for myself is to set Amber free, meaning, telling myself it was ok . I know she will not have to suffer, and has her health back. I know she probably already has checked up on your baby.
Please know your in our thoughts and prayers!
