My poor Lilly is gone

My little rat terrier is dead. While I was at work she was outside with dad and he was getting the trailor ready to haul firewood and they said they saw her in the yard. Well she got out of the fence and some how got on the trailor and dad didn't know it and about four miles from home she either fell or jumped off and dad accidently ran over her. He didn't even know it. I came in from work and saw a little dog on the side of the road in the grass and I remembered thinking that it looked like my Lilly and when I got almost home I felt this knot in my stomach telling me that my Lilly was dead. And the strange thing is I had thought about her at work all night. Well when I got here I noticed she wasn't anywhere to be found and normally in the mornings she is sunning herself on the edge of the porch. Well I called for her and no answer and dad said well she is around here somewhere she was playing with the other dog this morning. Well we had to run to town and on the way out we saw the crows and dad stopped and it was my Lilly. I had her for six years she was my sweet little girl she was the most loving little dog. I just hope she didn't suffer any.

Oh how sad for you, I am so sorry to hear this. I hope Lilly didn't suffer either. This is such a shock for you, you're in my thoughts.

Oh my God, that is terrible... I am so sorry... RIP Lilly...

Thank you I don't know what's worse when I didn't know where she was or having seen her laying there.

How very, very tragic hun, I am so sorry.

Aww I'm sorry sorry for little Lilly. I hope she didn't suffer long. RIP lil pup

I dread seeing my sister she used to tease me about wishing Lilly would get killed somehow and how it would be a miracle if she did. I know if she makes some smart remark I am going to punch her in the mouth. Lilly was the sweetest little dog she loved everyone, kids made her nervous but she liked them as long as they were easy with her its just my sisters kids are so wild Lil had a hard time with them. She loved having her belly rubbed she would sit and paw at my hand to get me to keep doing it.

Good grief, I am so sorry. What a tragic thing. Many hugs to you. RIP sweet Lilly.

Oh honey, I'm so sorry. I'm sure Lilly didn't suffer. Don't let your sister get to you; I can't believe she'd be cruel enough to tease you about losing Lilly. Sending a (((big hug))) to you.

I am so sorry RIP Lilly

I am so sorry for your loss. It's terrible finding an animal, but, IMO, it is much worse when you don't know where the animal is. When our cat, Goldie, was killed by a car last week, it was terrible for DH to bring his body back home, but it was better than always wondering where Goldie had gotten to.

Condolences. R.I.P. Lilly.

I am so sorry that you lost your little girl Lilly. You are dealing with a lot lately. Hugs to you during this very difficult time. If your sister does say something mean please do not stoop to your level and hit her. I would hate to see you end up in jail because of that brat. If anyone says anything to upset you instead of hitting anyone please come here and vent about it. There are plenty of people here that will listen to you and offer you suppport.

I wish I was closer to you so I could reach out and hug you in person.

I am so sorry for this terrible tragedy You have already been putting up with so much lately, and now losing dear Lilly. How horrible for you to find her like that - as little as it may seem, at least you have closure rather than wondering where she was or what happened to her. I'd like to think of her playing with my RB dog Tasha, and carefully guarding the gates of Heaven. Rest in Peace, dear Lilly

My sister called dad a bit ago and he was telling her about Lilly getting killed and I guess she asked what I said because he said what could she say, I didn't know she was on there. And he was telling her that he hated it because he didn't want her in the house but she was a good little dog and I am not sure what my sister said next but he started laughing and said well she doesn't care she has her cat now like Lilly never even mattered. And what makes me mad is Lilly tried so hard to get them both to love her and they were mean to her the whole time she was living. And now they want to laugh about how I am okay because I have a cat. Yes Pixie is comforting me she actually has been glued to me today but she doesn't replace Lilly.

You just have to ignore those negative comments, I think. How horrid not to have support in your grief. My cat Pixie is sending love to you and your cat Pixie.

It sounds like someone didn't love your dad like they should have when he was a little boy. That mean laughter that you hear from them is really their masks for the pain and fear that they are really feeling. I know it doesn't help you any, but it is their shortcomings and not anything that you are doing that makes them so emotionally inept. I am glad that you have Pixie but I wish that your own sister could at least give you the human emotional support that you need right now.
Your TCS family cares

I'm so sorry. You are going through enough without your family being insensitive to you. Some people don't understand. You'll be in my prayers tonight.

I'm so sorry about Lilly!

So sorry to hear about Lilly And even more sorry you had to hear your dad and sister laughing about it and how you would be okay because you have Pixie. So cruel of them.

When Monte was hit by a car in 2008, I had seen a body out of the corner of my eye in the road on the way to our errands but didn't think much of it - Monte never ventured off the 5 acres of land. When my in-laws called hubby and his voice changed, my stomach dropped. Monte hadn't come home the previous night or that morning, and when his voice had changed I knew something was wrong. They found him and brought him back to the house for hubby to confirm. When hubby came inside with tears running down his face, I knew, but I had to see him though, because in my mind I refused to believe it really was him until I saw it. It was horrible, I remember bringing Katina out to say goodbye to her brother. It's definitely a tragic thing

I am so sorry about Lilly!!

Lots of headbumps from my two and big kisses from Vito
