rough morning

One of the most touching threads ever :(

RIP Sid, and I echo the comments of others on not beating yourself up over it. Sid is looking down from doggy heaven and wishing you were happy.

Here's a nice little verse that was posted in another thread a while back:

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies, that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all our special friends so they can fun and play together. There is plenty of food and water and sunshine and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor, those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they miss someone very special to them; who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. The bright eyes are intent; the eager body quivers. Suddenly she begins to break away from the group, flying over the green grass, her legs carrying her faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head and you look once more into the trusting eyes of Your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together...

`cheers for that mate
never thought a 8 month old pup comming dog would affect me and my wife this way
l guess that l was driver in our drive and at last 10- 15 feet would make his final place to be alive
every time l drive now l think of sid,l find it hard over last 2 days to drive and not shead a tear for him,to nite l missed him being my shadow,l have called other dogs tonite his name by accident
l know time will sort all this out
hardest thing a moment for me is the knowing l caused sid not to be alive to nite,at moment l have to find a way to forgive myself ,haven't figured that out
think this will be with me for awhile as well as comming to terms with the loss
 
finaly my wife is asleep,been a lot of crying tonite,ther is a dogie bone in sids bed and we dont have the heart to remove it and other dogs haven't touched it,the bigger of our 2 dogs is down as she played a lot with sid and sid sleeped on top of jaz,everywhere jaz went ,sid was there
more that us is missing sid
see jaz going over to sids grave and smelling it and then looking at me with sad brown eyes of hers

cheers for link
havent shed this much tears since my father died 28 years ago,it was first anger,then shock and loss and now will look to forgive myself somehow,was even thinking sell the car that rolled over him,dont know if that will help
at at abit of loss and will take it day by day,when l can drive the car and not cry or fell loss when driving it,then l know l have moved on ,will always remember for awhile l feel
 
A lot of people say that they can't drive a car once they've had an accident in it... so if you can afford the expense and time maybe it would be worthwhile changing it to make you feel a bit better. And it'd give you something to occupy your mind. Perhaps wait a few days to see how you feel about it then.

Maybe you could make a little memorial for him? It might take your mind off all of the bad images you have in your mind but at the same time you'd be doing something for him :)
 
we goingto take a drive in the car with other 2 dogs ,a beach,over 2 hrs away where we didn't bring sid as we need time to go to place we where with sid
we'll see how l feel next week about changing the car ,as changing it would be hard at moment,we need to get away from house and spmewhere we havent been for a while with sid and guess get used to not having with us on trips

I would put all decisions on hold whilst grieving m8, have a lovely day the best you all can. Share love, I hope the sun is shining for you :)
 
we had good day,still shed few tears for sid
l made a mistake to how old sid was,he was just over 6 months old.for me ,it will take some time for me to get over the fact that l was drivjng the car that killed sid and he was running TO GREET ME,if he didnt ,migh be alive,cant change the fact hes not.lm going to put a slap of concrete and water fountion where sid buried
 
today we decided to clean the house of sids hair as we didnt before
also put away his toys and shed few tears,first thing you notice is how quiet the house is,hes not chasing the other dogs around the place and jump on your let looking for attention and looking for biscuit

RIP Sid
 
cheers sic
we need time to not to think and feel upset
being away will help a lot
can get back and get on with things
we mighten get the weather,will get a break at least
 
Damn, sorry to hear that. Your mind can go round in circles with things like this but don't blame yourself, it was just one of those unfortunate, tragic accidents.

I remember the feeling in the pit of my stomach after I threw a dart which bounced off the wire and lodged in my dogs back, luckily he was ok though.
 
hear you
can be surprised how some things affect you more than others
we're big into to our animals
all treated like kings and queens,lost was a lot,but when you do it ,can reck your head,takes time to come to terms with it
the house a lot quieter now and we getting on with things,we been offer pups and sayed no,as would be too much .wife better today.the hardest is when your at house and remember things and what happened,only way to move on is try not too,which is hard
so by going away for week is good for us
will do week over in scotland and donegal in ireland
will bring the dogs with us
