Members crystalnlouie Posted July 7, 2008 Members Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 i know others have found peace i just dont think i could ever do that.If anyone has advice i would appreciate it.I cant have kids so my dog Taco was my son he healed my heart about that atleast i could be his mommy.I loved and took care of him very well.I love him dearly i was only away from him for 4 days of his life.He was alomost 8.he was with me through thehardest time of my life.I was neaver lonely with him.My husband works alot so most of my time was spent with him.A speeding car hit him and just left my baby to die in the middle of the road we rushed him to the vet but he was already gone.I neaver knew i could feel this much pain an i struggle to just make it through the day with out thoughts of not wanting to go on.Its been 3 months its not getting any easier for me i cry constantly.I sould have protected him he was so little and i love him dearly.I often wish i would have got hit not him.Everyone is supportive but no one really understands why i am deeply hurt he was just adog to them but he was and is my only son i will ever have.what do i do?

Members angelflo Posted July 8, 2008 Members Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Hi, I am so sorry for your loss. I know how you feel -- I am feeling devastated right now because I feel the deaths of my 3 cats recently are all my fault. I live out in the country, and a fox had started stalking my pets over the last few weeks. I lost another one last night -- dumb, dumb, dumb. We let him outside because they were all used to being outside and meowed constantly to go out> Now I feel like a totally irresponsible jerk. I know it is hard -- I don't ever feel like I want pets again. I don't deserve them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mommaloves Posted July 22, 2008 Members Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Dear Chrystal, I am very sorry for your loss I just lost my big guy of 7 years a couple of days ago and the pain is so intense i never knew that i could hurt this much. all i can do is cry and don't seem to want to do much other than that I don't understand what has happened except that my bear is gone and my pain is real and i also feel like i will die soon i am scared now he was my protector when i have been alone i have been online alot trying to find out i am so weary and don't have much strength to talk to anyone i want to tell them how wonderful my beautuful bear was in all the ways how smart how he lived to smile at me how his eyes just shine when he hears me i am so sad i am so tired i just want to hear my baby bark again. i close my eyes and see him walking towards me as he did each day when i came home from anywhere. he knew that i would always come home as i would tell him so and he would wait patienly he never complained and a few days ago he left and was hit on the free way he had never left before he always stayed at home with us and but he left and we just don't understand why he left and to try and cross the freeway well i am tired to tell the story i am so sorry for your loss i thought that i was going nuts because i never knew my hurt could run so deep. i have a bears little adopted brother little brother and i know that he is also very sad and it hurt me so to see him.i am trying to find ways to ease the hurt and the emotions in me i feel so guilty because i had to make the dicision to have my bear put to sleep it is the hardest thing that i can imagine i held my baby in my arms while the doctor put him to sleep he knew that he had to go so he stopped crying with real tears in his eyes he couldn't understand why but as i prayed i asked God to send St. Francis of Asissi to take my bear back and as i was praying he just laid back into my arms while i whipered in his ears momma loves you baby i just love you so much and as i told him that the doctor cried i am so sorry over and over again as he gave him an overdose of anesthesia freinds and family have been very supportive and many of them i did not think cared but they knew my love for my baby. God Bless you and may you, we all be able to understand and go on somehow ..Rosaelia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members angel44 Posted July 24, 2009 Members Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 I am so sorry - Hugs - your pet is with God now - you will be together with him again one day - until then volunteer at a animal shelter etc - there are many others needing love to - you can still make a difference, Peace, Angel.

Members butterfly13 Posted July 28, 2009 Members Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 meggyboo- Please don't be afraid to get another dog,their are sooo many out there that could use the love you have to offer.I lost 2 of my cats last year-and my mom,hardest year of my life.My mom was my best friend and my cats were my babies.I have since adopted 3 kittens.One just 2weeks ago,he would have been put to sleep because they told me adoptions are really low this year because of the economy,and they are over-run with animals.My pets are the only things that keep me going most days.Please consider getting another dog,he will not replace the ones you have lost,but it will help ease the pain of your losses and give you that unconditional love only a pet can give!!Good luck to you!!

Members angel44 Posted July 28, 2009 Members Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Me too - my cat is what keeps me going as well - She knew my mom before my mom died and its like shes a piece of my mom - go to a shelter and find a new friend instead of thinking and weeping over what is lost try to focus on what could be new - your pet would want you to not be sad your little buddy would want you to go and find another buddy like him :0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members angel44 Posted July 28, 2009 Members Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 if you want to look online - you can just type in a city say San fransico animal shelter for instance and it will show you what pets they have available - it would be great to save a pet's life by adoption - so many are put to sleep bc of no owners available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
