Today has been one week since my Jasper puppy was hit by a truck and we had to make the horrible decision to send him on to God.

I can't stop replaying last Saturday over and over - seeing him off his leash across the street where he wasn't supposed to be. If only I hadn't called him to me.

I'm so sorry Jazzy! I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry . . .

When will the pain stop? When will I stop seeing things that remind me of his sweet little face? When will I feel normal again? I miss him so much, he was my baby boy. No matter how many tears I shed, the emptiness will not go away. I feel like a zombie walking through each day.

I'm so sorry Jazzy! I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry . . . I love you so much my baby boy! :..(

JASPER KNOWS HW MUCH YOU LOVE HIM!!!!!

Don't put blame on yourself!! Everything happens for a reason. Even tho we may never know the answer as to why. There must have been a special calling at the Rainbow Bridge for your precious boy.

It will take time for you to feel normal. Don't rush it. You need your time to grieve. Maybe posting stories or pictures of Jasper here would help. It really helped me. It has been a little over 10 months for me. Most of my days are normal now, but i still have ups and downs. I still miss her terribly. Probably always will. They do hold such a dear place in our hearts.

Just remember Jasper IS still with you in spirit whereever you go.

Hugs to you and your new Angel Jasper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I so much feel your pain and understand what you are going thru. I wish I could wave a magic wand and make all of our hurt go away. I can tell you this, however, it will ease in time. I cannot say when for we a all different. I understand your guilt too. But, you can't blame yourself. It's a totally natual reaction. Just recentaly, I was calling my cat Piper. She usually comes fairly quickly. But, that day I noticed her head popped up from the bush across the street. My heart sank. She saw me and wanted to cross. I was waving my arms franticly telling her to stay. Luckily I was able to get to her first. But it also happened with another I had years ago. I called her and as she crossed she nearly got hit. Sadly we live and learn, but they are not human and we have no controll over thier actions.
This was an accident and Jazzy knows it too. In time all your questions will be answered. You will always have a missing piece in your heart, but you will smile again when you think of him.
I have just past the 10mo mark . I still feel sadness, but it doesn't consume me. I still cry, but not everyday, I still see his face everywhere. I still hurt, but less intensly. There is hope. In the meantime, we are here at LS to help. I'm so greatful for the support I've found here...Your in my thoughtsa and prayers..Hugs..Ann

I'm so sorry. I don't really know what to say, except that I can relate to the raw, fresh pain you're in and the empty, hollow feeling deep in your gut that doesn't ever seem to go away. I'm sure your Jasper knew you loved him and did the best you could for him--don't blame yourself.

My Fluffy (male pomeranian) died on the same day. It's only been a week for me as well. Maybe my Fluff and your Jasper puppy are playing together smile.gif

Thank you all for your support and kind words. It means so much to know there are others who understand.

I had a wave hit me today when I was at work. I opened my photo folder on my computer looking for something and Jazzy's little face filled the screen. It's the first time since his death that I saw his picture.

I quietly made my way to the restroom where I allowed the wave to wash over me, sobbing quietly so no one could hear.

I'm so sorry, Jasper! Mommy loves you so much. I hurt, baby boy and I'm so sorry you got hurt.

Gotta go - here comes another wave . . . please pray for me.

I'm so sorry to hear about Jasper, i know it doesnt seem like it right now, but things do get easier in time. When my darling Squidge passed away on the 28th December 2008, I honestly felt like i could not carry on, i was broken totally. Coming here really helped me to start to deal with it. Yes, I still cry about losing her, and I still miss her like crazy, but I can now think about her and smile and feel lucky for having her in my life, and feel honored that she loved me as much as i love her. Don't feel bad for being upset, pets are like children to a lot of people and its a grieving process you have to go through x

Dear Grieving In Michigan I am so so sorry for your loss of your beautiful fur baby Jasper ! In answer to your questions like the comments before me it takes a lot of time to heal,I have lost 3 of my babies in the last 16 months I to feel empty lost ,angry, sad and depressed .I accidently locked my Freddie in the car and he cooked to death this will haunt me till the day I die,then his mother(mummy dog) died suddenly she was my best freind in the world she was 15 ,then we lost Teddy Bear last week .I can think and talk about Freddie and Mummy now but it is stil hard the only useful peice of advice I can give is first of all be kind to yourself andd second I have learnt that I will never get over the loss of my babies but as soon as I learnt to live with it acceptence will then come afterwards this took months and months before I had this relization ! The statment that people often make that you will get over it makes me so angry .You never get over it you learn to live with it and try to move forward slowly take your time to grieve you are in my thoughts and prayers! Jasper is at the rainbow bridge with Freddie , Mummy and Teddy Bear they will look after him wub.gif
Take care
Warren Teddy ,Mummy and Freddies loving dad missing them for ever wub.gif
