my loss

My dear corgi and animals friends. I do have some good news and that news is that I may have saved another dog's life and his pet parent from having to go through what I went through.

The next day after I had to depart with my Yogi, I got the courage to hand out to my closest neighbor's who have dogs, flyers alerting them to what happened to me and that the house next to mine was was littered with the moth crystals. Well word got out very quickly because where I live I know most of the dogs as well as my neighbors knowing mine because i walk them all the time.

So one of the neighbor's that already knew what happened to me alerted another dog walker who walks his golden retriever by that house. He was go grateful because his dog usually licks or like to eat stuff from the grass, and low and behold my neighbor saw him cross the street with his dog and this may have saved her life. That put my mind at peace and at ease. I am still getting condolences, and my neighbors still asking me how I am doing. I reply I'm doing fine but the truth is I'm still not but I know I will be.

Thanks again for letting me share and open up to people who understand what it is like to love and to be loved by animals.

I love you Yogi. Hope your having fun with your toys where ever you are.

I can not believe that it is OK for someone to do this. You could take them to Small Claims court..it would not bring Yogi back but might make them realize how bad this is. So sorry for your loss!

I know I will never be the same after Murphy passed, but I see him in things that bring me joy now, and I don't cry when I think of him. Took a while for that to change. You never get "over" something, you get "through" it, and bringing awareness to the dangers is definitely a huge step in getting through a preventable accident like this. Keep your chin up. Our lost furbabies are at the Rainbow Bridge... but also at our heels sending love and joy through space and time.
