I lost my Sandy dog, Thursday afternoon. She was my go everywhere dog. At my side 24-7. Age, 5 yrs. She learned to walk beside me without a leash on her own and would lay next to the machine I was working on in clients shops with no bother. A friend of mine had stopped out front of the house and we chatted for a while and I looked down..Sandy was under the truck in the shade in front of the rear wheels. So I told her to go back into the yard..and she did. A few moments later..she was back and again I told her to go back into the yard. 5 minutes later, we said our goodbyes and I turned as he started to drive away and I heard a "YipeCrunch" and I spun around to see Sandy laying in the street, her head misshapened and gallons of blood running out of her mouth. I dropped to my knees beside her..felt her heart beating at 200 miles an hour as it desperately tried to get enough blood..and then it stopped. She was dead instantly..with a 3' wide circle of blood....heavy..thick...arterial blood pouring out of her mouth..then it stopped..nothing left to bleed out. My roommate Ryan had been pressure washing a vehicle..so I picked Sandy up..and carried her to the yard and had him pressure wash the thick pool of blood off the street. My buddy was standing there next to his truck.... in shock...green as a blade of grass..gasping. I went to him and held him..told him it wasnt his fault....she simply died as a result of not following orders...and loving me too much. It should be noted..that my buddy was in full uniform...he is the local dog catcher..and had run over my Sandy's head and neck with the 2 ton Animal Control truck. Somewhat ironic eh? I buried her under my bedroom window, facing my side of the bed, where she has spent every night of her life..beside me as I sleep. https://picasaweb.google.com/.../NewPupsAugust2013 Her legacy. We lost 4 of them to parvo just as they were ready to be adopted out, fast and nasty. 3 went to good homes. She has had 2 prior litters...so her legacy will continue. All of her pups are greatly loved and are smart..smart dogs and companions to their owners. https://picasaweb.google.com/1040422...66056925389154 I talked to her last night..and she will be waiting for me when its my time to cross over. It will be many many years..but she was always good about waiting for me. And now..she can wait where she wants.

Only a dog person understands Dan Yep, I lost the second of my two mini-Schnausers after 16 years. They died about a year apart. NO MORE! That lasted 6 weeks. But, I did have some concern about a new pair outliving me, I had to be assured someone would adopt them if they outlive me. The pups are almost three now and Gunner was instrumental in getting me through it and having me get more dogs. I was hurting. |
