Lucibelle left us today.
My beautiful baby left us today.,.I let the girls out to pee this morning...like i do every morning. a couple minutes later i hear a commotion, i rush outside and my two girls are fighting a pack of coyotes. i saw them take lucibelle. in my heart i thought i would never see her againi chased them and tried to get her back but my dad was yelling---lucy is dead get the other dogs, so i turned my attention to neeka .. We leashed neeka up to go look for then den a couple hours after----and she led us right to lucy. who was alive. We rushed her to the emergancy vet...unfotunatly a couple hours later we made the decision to let her go when we were told she had severly severed her spinal cord and woul dmost likely ever heal. I held her, and cried when she fell asleep. and buried her next to riley. I am beyond distraught. but i am also releaved neeka brought her sister home to me so i could lay her to rest and know where she is at all times. It is a miracle that she was alive, we believe when we went looking for her without the dogs we came close to where she was and scared the coyotes away. I got to hold her, and kiss her and let her know how much i loved her and i guess that was the best i could ask from the situation. I have never felt so much pain or missed anyone so much in my life. I feel like i lost a part of me today. she was truely my best friend and the best dog a girl could ask for.

The what-if's will drive you crazy. We can't keep them in bubble-wrap. No matter how careful we are, things can happen.
You are right, though: it's all part of the healing and it will get better as time goes by.

I just want to add my hearfelt sympathy for your loss of Lucibelle.....it is wonderful that you were able to bring her home and not have the worry about where she was....The coyotes are a serious problem in the Denver area where my daughter makes her home....they sit right outside her fence and challenge her dogs....May God Bless you and keep your family and dogs safe.

thank you everyone, im having a better day i just wanted to share what an awsome dog lucy was. it helps me to talk about the good times. I rescued lucibelle when she was around 6 months old, she was kept in a cage her whole life, when i got her she was missing fur, wasn't taken care of, had never been walked or pet or bathed. She was set to be put down. I took her home, and she was the most grateful dog in the world. She could lay in bed with you all day or she could go camping and play all the time. She was a 4 pound pomeranian who thought she was a 70 pound rotwieler. She was always the crazy type...she wasn't afraid of anything, we took her camping this summer and she ran so fast across the river to get to horses that she wasn't even wet...she skidded across. She was alot of fun, and watching her always made everyone laugh. She used to try to get the cats to play with her, and played with big dogs (tug a war and everything) she and neeka (my corgi) were best friends, the night before she left us they were laying on the bed licking eachother and pouncing on each other. She was always up to cuddle, everyone who ever met her instantly loved her. she had a wild streak and would chase deer and moose, we used to call her our pocket wolf. we were working on getting her to not chase things and we believe she might have gone up to the coyotes, it happened so fast i cant tremeber how it started...she loved everyone and everything. I only had her one short year, i keep telling myself i extended her life by a year, she was loved alot, she got to run and play, she had a best friend and a sister. 6 months ago we lost another dog (too old age) he was a 13 year old golden, when he was alive she used to stand up, put her paws on his face and give him kisses. she is buried right next to him, by his face, so she will never be lonley, and i bet she is up there with her paws on either side of his face giving him kisses.

What a wonderful story of love. We are so lucky to have the unconditional Love that these little ones can bring us even if it is for a very short time. She was fortunate to have been so loved by you and your family. Such a tragic loss, but what a wonderful gift her life was.--Kristen

Memories...sounds like you have many great ones of her and the all too short time you spent together! I guess we never know when a loved one will be taken from us!

Wow.. what a sad sad event :( There is nothing I can say that will ease the hurt but I just wanted to say I'm sorry. i can't imagine what I would do or how I would feel if I saw the same situation.

Also remember to give yourself credit for doing the best you could for her in her final hour of need. Had you been unable to find her, she might have faced a long, painful death. But her best friend came through for her when she needed you most. That's the kind of loyalty that only love can earn.
