My Dog got hit by a car on New years day, I feel empty and lost, how can I deal with the pain? She had just turned 2 not a week before she got hit.

Answer #1

I lost my dog too.he was a pittbull. people hated him.

Answer #2

awh I’m so sorry, and I know It’s reallly hard. I lost two puppies last year. It’s horrible. He was my only best friend. But you know what I did?!

I went and bought another dog kinda like him. but a girl.. STILL I was really upset, but having that other little pup takes it off your mind, animals have this really unique way of calming you. you can’t be to upset having a pup right in your lap giving you his/her love.

I say get another one not to replace him, but to have another friend so your not lonely. It really helped my whole family get over it a little.

I’m really sorry about your loss. :(

I am so sorry, I lost my dog on 1-2-09 she was 12. This is what I did to help with my grieving. I enlarged a picture of her and did it in Black and White. I matted it and framed it. I also had her cremated so I could bring her back home. And I bought this necklace that holds a little of her ash in it.

Only you will know how to grieve. Everyone grieves in a different way. Some people cry and some don’t. Just please make sure if you get another dog you are doing it for all the right reason’s. You could also have a little memorial service for her in your yard. I truly am sorry, I have to deal with this atleast once a week at my job and I cry right beside all of the owners. I do understand all the emotions you are going through.

Answer #6

I feel so bad for you. My sister lost her pup to the same thing on 1-17-09. He wasn’t even a year old.

Anyway, it’s a sad thing to lose an animal because they’re family too. Look at pictures and don’t replace your dog right away. Let your heart heal.

Sorry again.
