Sad to announce

Poor little puppyface :(

Can only repeat what the others have said - it was an accident and you are not to blame. Hugs to you, Sheena and the little boys

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of this little fellow. Give lots of extra kisses to Sheena and the 6 other pups. RIP little Guy, your time was short but you touched all of us who have been watching for this delivery and in your five days.

Don't blame yourself, these things happen as said by others, it would have been so quick you could have been in the same room and not been able to do anything. God knows what he is doing, there must have been some need for him in Heaven.

Oh how sad... I'm so sorry for your loss.
Please don't blame yourself.

{{hugs}} to you and Sheena.

I'm so sorry to hear this. Don't blame yourself.

R.I.P Golden baby.

Oh, I am so sorry to read this news. [[Hugs]] to Nichole, Sheena and the pups.

I´m so sorry..... I know personally how it feels...... so frustrating when you really couldn´t have done anything, even when we want to think we could.....
accidents happen with or without us..... don´t blame yourself.... I know the guilt part and how hard it is but no one is here to blame.......

Poor Sheena, she must be clueless, but she´ll get back to normal, she still has a bunch of cuties to look out for....

I´m sorry Golden boy, rest easy at the RB.......

If you need anything I´m here......((HUGS)) to you all

I read this last night and was so upset, both for you and Sheena and I just couldn't think of anything to say.

It's terribly heartbreaking but like Pat said, when it's time, it's time. Please just try not to blame yourself.

And your so right...these boys are going to be keeping her busy very, very soon!

Many (((HUGS)))

I am so very sorry Nicole :(. The deep love and devotion you have for Sheena and the pups is very evident in every meticulous detail you have worked so hard on, even before they were born. Every post about them and their coming has been filled with love and commitment to do the absolute best possible for each one. So I know how horribly it must be hurting your heart. It wasn't even just five days you have loved this pup, you've been loving each and every pup since you learned for sure she was pregnant, before you ever saw them. Each is equally precious and important. Little Golden will be well looked after at the Rainbow Bridge. I don't think anyone here feels you are to blame, but I know how hard it can be to forgive one's self. I hope the love and support here can help you do that. Sending warm thoughts and hugs to you.

I'm so sorry Nicole. RIP little pup. Let Sherman take care of you up there, he'll show you the way. :(

Oh no!! :( I am so sorry for the loss of your golden boy. :(

R.I.P. Little one

I'm so sorry Nicole. RIP little Golden boy. *HUGS*

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your little golden boy. It was an accident, and not your fault, so don't blame yourself. R.I.P., sweet golden puppy.
Catloverforever and her kitties

Thank you so much everyone. Your support has ment a great deal to me. Things have gotten much better since Tuesday. Until then Sheena was constantly digging in closets crying for her pup. She would purposely count her pups and wake them every half hour. I kid you not. Drove us nuts because she wasn't content till they woke up crying. Then she would settle. Only to repeat it a half hour or so later. Made sleeping at night almost impossible. But finnally on Tuesday it all stopped. She still will go in once and a while and count her pups but not wake them anymore. She also is no longer searching and digging in closets or crying. So the past two days have gotten a lot easier on all of us.

I am still hurting inside for the loss of little Golden but not as bad as before and the other pups are keeping me busy along with updating the adopters and Service Dog Trainer regularly and updating my website. I am also kept busy with the constant emails asking if we have any pups avalable. And of course we don't. So we are already starting a waiting list for the next breeding. Which will be Sheena's last and not for at least a year and a half.

I had no idea I would be getting so many emails about these pups after I started posting pictures to my website. It is shocking and the volume is very over whelming. But it is keeping me busy, since I try and answer eveyone in a timely manner. And being busy keeps me from thinking and hurting too much.

Agian thank you everyone. Your support helped a great deal and Sheena and I are doing much better.
