My dog was killed yesterday...hit and run

[daisyduke]

Yesterday, my lil adopted Yorkie, that I just got in August, was killed. She had a bad habit of bolting out of the front door. This time, I couldn't catch her in time and she ran, and ran and ended up on a very busy road. How sad. I'm so sad.

I loved her, always felt sorry for her, becuase she was abused by her original owners - why would anyone get a little dog or any dog and abuse them?  Beyond sick....... I told her on Friday nite that she is in her forever home...it's so very sad.

How could anyone run over a dog and not stop? Just keep going?  We had to carry her little body home...and take her to the vet to be buried...what a hard day and today is still hard.

Sorry for your loss.

Sorry for your loss.  I'm sure she's bolting through the clouds now.  Let it snow in her memory.

I'm so sorry. As you know we lost our dachsund several months ago. The loss is terrible no matter how it happens. You'll always have that memory of her though. I think of the things Bogie used to do and it makes me smile. Keep that close to your heart.

Very sad to hear about this, daisy, and very sorry for your loss.  DW and I have been there, too. 

Keep her in your heart, and smile when you think of her, and she'll always be there for you.

So sorry for your loss, its so hard to lose a furry friend.  I will never understand how someone could do a hit and run. 

My dogs (both rescue pugs) are my closest confidents (face it, they are not going to spread rumors about you!) and provide unconditional love.  We don't get enough time with our pets, something like this is that much more tragic.

so so sorry.  I lost one of mine that way but at least the guy stopped.  I think he felt as bad as I did.

It is a good reason for training them to the word no.

Awwwwwww, I'm so sorry!

Thanks everyone for your kind words of support. I'm still very sad and I'm still crying...I truly felt sorry for that little dog, knowing that she was abused and she didn't live that long....The good news is that she had the last part of her life in a loving home...

RIP Pepper. Mommy misse u.

I am sorry for your loss. It is often overlooked how much a pet can possibly mean to someone and it is hard to see them go, especially like this. I am sure it will be sad for your family and it will take time to adjust but it will happen. Focus on the good times and again very sorry for the loss, they are always missed, I have had a few of my own so I know the feeling that is associated with it.
