Remember when that big dog tried to attack her at the church in your neighborhood? I was so upset, I was shaking. I will never forget that. Your dad saved the day! We have a dog who keeps running to the neighbors and swimming in their nasty pond! We sure do love that naughty dog! I am sad for your family today. <br /><br />LauraTrauma Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265373885366546834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259469922786807086.post-89439268705668887502012-09-15T19:44:27.548-07:002012-09-15T19:44:27.548-07:00Sharon, I'm so very sorry!

I am soooo sorry for your lose and sooo sorry for how it happened. I'm sorry there is the "if only I hadn't opened the gate" that you'll wrestle with for some time...you didn't do anything wrong, please know that. You did what you do often. Things just happened wrong afterwards. I can't imagine how awful it was riding to the vets with him...all the images, sounds, emotions that will be so hard to shake. I'm so glad you were there with him, sounds like he wouldn't have wanted anyone else. I am praying for you Sharron. As you said, the Lord was so gracious to spare the girls from the sights and reality of what happened. They will be sad and morn their sweet dog, but I know you have so much more to cry and wrestle thru being there thru it. Thank you for sharing your story. I'm really sorry!<br />love,<br />GenevaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259469922786807086.post-6462517515114594452012-09-15T12:25:44.427-07:002012-09-15T12:25:44.427-07:00I'm sorry Sharon.

I know when we visited your home this past summer, we shared the same views about having a dog for a pet, yet I saw how much you cared about Hank and how you were willing to allow him to be in the house, etc. for the sake of your sweet family, whom you love! <br />I'm so sorry for your loss and appreciate the love and heart expressed in this writing. I have tears in my eyes, as well.<br />Much love to you all!!!<br />Aunt JackieAunt Jackie Wisenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259469922786807086.post-9850860621924891992012-09-15T07:20:35.283-07:002012-09-15T07:20:35.283-07:00So sorry for your lost.

I know exactly what you mean about not being super-thrilled about being a dog owner, we're doing that right now, but this post gives me so much perspective. Thank you for writing it. I'm sending up a doggie prayer of peace for you and your family - and trying to love more completely at our house as a result. <br />rocketcitymomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12609683254460654739noreply@blogger.com
