Dealing With Loss Of Three Beloved Pets, Dogs Poisoned Options

[Guest_Sass1_*]

On Wed. evening someone poisoned (with anti-freeze) three of my beautiful dogs. Sam ( Great Pyrenees) and Buster (German Shephard mix) died in the middle of the night the third, Fred (collie mix) I had to put down Thurs. morning.
Sometimes the pain feels like it will never end. I have three small children who are dealing with it I think better than myself. I haven't been able to sleep in my bed because it reminds me of that night. I was in a fairly deep sleep and heard thrashing around which at the time I thought was just the dogs playing. I remember thinking it sounded really rough but I was tired and didn't get out of bed. They weren't playing they were dying. We offered a reward for any information. One of the tips we received seems like it might be the guy. Unfortunately, we aren't getting much assistance from law enforcement. I feel very alone. We went out yesterday and picked up another dog from the local shelter. I'm having a hard time bonding with the dog.
Basically, I am tormented over their deaths and miss them dearly. We never received a single complaint from any of our neighbors which makes it all the more bewildering.
Finally, I feel like there isn't anyone around me that understands the sorrow I am experiencing which makes me feel even more crazy. I keep thinking this is some kind of nightmare and I'll wake up shortly.
Thanks for listening,
Sam, Buster, Fred's mom,

in my 10 years of pet-loss support, this issue has come up so many times i cannot even remember the number.

keep in mind that the decision of an owner to keep their pet indoors or to allow them outdoors is just that...the owner's decision. some decisions result in tragedy, that is part of the reason why people come here. sometimes there are accidents, that is just part of life.

at this site, there is no wrong or right. we are all here for a common reason, and that reason is to help one another get through the grief of losing a pet, a friend, a furchild. please keep it kind. thank you.
