my dog died saturday...he was hit by a car and killed instantly

i had just spent all day putting rock around our fence so he wouldnt be able to get out...aparently someone left the door open...irony

i always felt like i had to protect him because he was so little and innocent...a minute before it happened i asked if sam was inside the house and everyone said he was fine...i cant stop blaming myself because if i would have just looked inside...for some reason i knew he wasnt ok

so i'm trying to hold it together because my girlfriend is a mess, like crying and throwing up because that dog meant so much to her...so i spent an hour in the bathroom crying last night (first time i cried in like 15 years) so my girlfriend wouldnt hear me

i know its jsut a dog and to tell you the truth i really didnt want him at first ( i always thought of yorkies to be girly dogs) but he was like my best friend...i did everything with him...he was only 2 years old

i guess thats all

I am so sorry! I hadn't cried for 10 years before my cat died unexpectedly, and never thought a pet would make me cry. Pets really can become a part of your family. I'm sorry this happened.

My deepest condolences too you and your girlfriend. It is so difficult losing a pet for the innocence that you stated.

I know that you are trying to be strong and it is commendable, but soon you need to open up to your girlfriend and share these feelings. It will make the both of you stronger and closer. It will also help put this tragedy behind you.

Again, my condolences.

My KC is almost 13 now. I tell myself when her time is up, I'll be ok with it, yet I know I am going to wind up crying like a baby. Pets will do that to you.

Condolences, Raamone.

Sorry about the loss. Its amazing how much pets can become a huge part of us. It was an accident. Don't blame yourself. Its normal to grieve. Enjoy the time you had with it.

Wow Raamone. You should have no shame in how you felt about that dog. I feel for you and you have my condolences. I was the same way when my dog died. She wasn't even supposed to be my dog too, she was bought by my ex, but I was around that dog for her whole life. When I was in the middle of my seperation my ex called to tell me she had to put the dog down because she was riddled with tumors. I cried for hours.

I know how you feel. I am so sorry.
