 Too Many Irons in the Fire
Posts: 1724
    Location: Augusta, KS | I lost my little girl today. My sweet, sweet, loyal dog. It was a freak incident and she was hit by a car. There was nothing that could be done, and I knew that, but I tried anyways. I saw the entire thing and will be traumatized for a long time.
Just this morning we had our usual morning cuddle time as soon as she heard my alarm clock go off, then we went out to feed horses and her and Jax ran and ran and ran. She absolutely loved living out here. She was an amazing dog.. so, so loving and affectionate. She died such an unfair death. This is my first ever loss, ever. In human or beast. I'm just devastated. My heart hurts, I can't stop crying. Jax won't stop pacing the house looking for her. He's going to be so lonely without his sister.
I just needed to get my feelings out. This was our family on thanksgiving. Hugs please?

     Location: Red Raiderland | RKC, here is a big for you. I know the pain you are going through and i am very, very sorry. She was beautiful. Hold on to the memory of those snuggles you got from her this morning. I have lost several furry babies over the years and i can say the pain has lessened but never completely goes away, unfortunately. Lean on Jax to help sooth your pain. Also, please know you are not at fault for her accidental death. |

      Location: NE Texas | My heart breaks for you, runningkc. This happened to one of our dogs about a month ago and it was terrible and still upsets me to think about it; it is traumatizing. All I can offer you is hugs. My mom said something cool to me when it happened, she said "She's probably in Heaven with Shady (my old border collie) talking about how cool we are as people." That comforted me. Guarantee you your dog is saying how awesome you are as well. Again, many hugs to you!

Its so sad coyotes got my blue heeler Abby Saturday morning. 
I am so sorry for both of your losses. Maybe you could consider going to your local shelter or finding a rescue group and adopting another pet? It won't replace what you lost but it does help to focus on something positive and your other dog will have a friend. Go thru your grieving process, and the dog needs to also, but try to look forward to something happy like saving another life. Prayers for strength and peace for both of you and your families. |

| So sorry for your loss RKC..
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.... |
