So unfair you had to make Ed’s dinner! Hope you get useful information from the test tomorrow.
A cowardly way out for him!
That's just bizarre.
I'd like to be able to reply to comments in a FB manner. Also, ditto, on making it easier to upload photos.
I never got the notice and commented on jjoohhnn's post. You asked if my email addy was correct. I checked and it is. I was just lucky to see his post on FB.
Wonder why he only notified a few of us. Didn't say anything to me!
Good for them! Kudos to you for posting this John!
So happy to hear from you! It's sickening that people just dump their pets to die out by you. I've gotten involved in dog rescue in a much bigger way than before. It's heartbreaking to read about these stories. Too bad they can't put the kids to work caring for the unwanted pets - doing something constructive might teach them some values. And keep em off your road.
So sorry about your friend. Please take comfort that you and others took action though. I checked to jog my memory and less than 8% of people given CPR for heart ailments survive. I hope that helps you feel better.
Good to hear from you Teal. How's the bridge? Can you get off the island or is it flooded?
I was pretty worried about things down there too - I spent the winter not far from her last year and am now an official snowbird. I spoke to my neighbors and was told there is water everywhere but no major damage. Teal lives on a very small island so wires are probably down for a few days. I called her earlier and couldn't get through but will keep trying.
For now, just keep him close and give him time to grieve and adapt to the loss. He will need to adjust to being an "only" too. I think they recognize death - at least my pets always have. He's probably especially tuned into your emotions about the loss.
When my Bella died in Oct. 2013, my other two stayed much closer to me for a while. Then Cassie died a few weeks later and I thought Gertie was going to fall apart. They had been inseparable. She surprised me though. She stuck close but also seemed more confident after a while. I don't think she had ever been an "only" dog and she seemed to enjoy it.
A play date is a good idea but I'd wait for another week or so. That's just my opinion - ymmv.
My heart goes out to you - you've lost three pets in just a few months.
