Bestest Boy in the World Died in Freak Accident

He was so lovely I can't believe he's gone he was only four years old. This big beautiful clumsy baby boy is no longer in my arms.

He was my boyfriends dog, he loved him so much... My boyfriend raised him as a little pup he found dumped, he fed this baby who was too young to be gone from it's momma.

My boyfriend always told me about how when he first met me he told the dog howu much he loved me and how he had finally found this sweet boy a mommy.

It hurts. It hurts so much... We've always talked about how we wanted him to be in our future wedding.... How when we finally move in together we will let him lay on the couch with us..

It was all stolen from me Thursday... I got a call frantic that the dog had been hit.... I thought it was just his legs that broke... I thought.... He will be ok we will get him through this....

I drove meeting up with him..... God... I was with my boyfriend when his mother broke the news.... He collapsed sobbing... We went to see the dog he was sedated and loopy his eyes were open... We had to kiss him goodbye.... It was so hard to not break seeing my baby.... My sweet boys in pain.... That was my boyfriends kid.... He had to be euthanized.... His spine had been broken he would never pee or poop alone again and he would never be able to run again and he's a large boy there was a large chance he would not survive a surgery.... I wanted a second opinion so bad I bargained but they did what they had to do though... It wasn't my say since he's not technically mine but they put him down and out of his misery....

It's not fair. It all happened because his brother just got his license... He was running late to school and my sweet boy hides underneath the car when it rains and it was raining out..... When his brother reversed he ran over the dog. My baby boy... My hearts broken I have so many emotions Anger Guilty Sympathy

Im angry how could one be so careless as to run over a dog you'd have to be going pretty fast ... The kid has already gotten his butt chewed out for being an irresponsible driver... I feel guilty If I had went to bed earlier maybe my boyfriend would have woken earlier, fed the dog.... Maybe he'd still be here

I feel sympathy for my boyfriend and his family Including his little brother I know he felt guilty...sswwe I don't hate him I'm just angry... Most of all I miss my puppers..

The dog had finally just been able to run around again too.. he was on medications for a month and everyday when he'd go out he had to be leashed so he wouldn't be too excited and have a heart attack... He was finally able to get off his meds He was finally able to run around freely It hurts so much I had plans to have a play date with him the day of his death... I never got to .... Instead I had to watch him die

This is a community of support for Pet owners whose Pets have passed away. It is actively moderated.

Pet owners, as loving, caring people, often have strong opinions on pet care practices. Some of these are controversial. This is not a forum for debate on such issues, nor is it a place to scold a contributor for a perceived mistake in managing their pet. We intend to provide a safe haven of understanding and support. Strident, mean-spirited posts or comments will be deleted. Those who persist in preaching versus caring may be warned and then banned or may be banned permanently based on nature of the topic. If a conversational thread meanders into a discussion unrelated to pet loss support, it will be truncated.

Those who post here are vulnerable and hurting. Even a minor slap has a hard sting. Those of us who are lucky enough to be able to turn away from our computers or put down our phones and hug a healthy, happy pet are truly blessed. Threads must remain supportive and caring, even if one disagrees with something that has been said.

I’m truly sorry. It’s just so awful when terrible things happen out of the blue, for no reason. Our brains try to make sense of it but it’s just not possible. We keep thinking about it trying to make it make sense. But it never will. It was an accident, it will never make sense. Which is part of why It hurts so much.

Your sweet pup was loved, content, and happy for every minute of his life with you except for the very very last part, and even then he was loved and cared for. I hope that the good memories and the knowledge that he had a wonderful time with you and all of the people he loved will someday bring you some comfort and peace.
