Sad happenings with my poodle, AnnaBelle

**kimlovescats** · 08-17-2006, 06:31 PM

Thank you all so much for the kind words and support. We actually didn't keep any of Jenna's baby clothes, so I bought these new for AnnaBelle! Thank you also for telling me about Bailey's Mom ... I will try to contact her! I did find a wonderful board at www.handicappedpets.com ... there are several other members there with the same type injuries as AnnaBelles. They have been a great support and given me lots of tips on caring for her!

Looks like AnnaBella, is doing great under the circumstances.
Those outfits are adorable on her. Thank goodness she will let you put them on her.

I'm sorry this happened to your AnnaBelle.

She is truly blessed to have you to love her and care for her. She's a beautiful girl.

I'm so sorry, for both you and pretty little, Annabelle. Your a wonderful owner for doing this, and I hope the cart would help her. ((hugs)) and prayers on the way for you both.

I'm so sorry

Good for you though for helping Annabelle as much as you can through this time. I'll keep Annabelle and yourself in my thoughts.

So sorry to hear of Annabelles sickness. Kim, I am so happy you have made the decision you have to keep her with you. I know you can do it, because you love her so much. She is just too beautiful to let go of now. I pray that she has a very long and useful life, that it is alway happy. I know that it can be too.

My prayers and good thoughts are with you and Annabelle. You done exactly what I would have done in that situation. I would not have her put down either. You are the woman!

Oh Kim, I am so sorry to hear about dear Annabelle. I pray that she is able to adapt to her handicap and remains a happy girl that she is.

Bless you both for loving her enough to make sure that she lives out the rest of her life in comfort.

I viewed some of the handicap website and there are alot of inspirational stories there and I am so glad that they have been such a great support for you to help you deal with your precious Annabelle's handicap.

Prayers on the way for her and ((((((HUGS)))))) for you.

I'm so sorry to hear this Kim.
Much love to you and Annabelle.

Kim I am totally heartbroken to read this. How did she injure herself? I had a toy poodle once who was jumping up in the air and must have twisted herself somehow because she let out a horrible yelp. She, too, had injured herself but thankfully after a regimen of steroids she was OK. These freaky accidents can happen anytime and it is so scary to even think about it. AnnaBelle is one very lucky girl to have you in her corner. Bless you as you care for her. I am glad you have found some support groups to help you through this. Please don't stay away from this board so long. I am so happy to see you back but of course not under these circumstances.

Do you remember this? You made it for Ripley and AnnaBelle in honor of their romance.

Ripley sends his love to you and AnnaBelle as do I. (((hugs)))

I'm so sorry to hear about Annabelle, Kim. She's such an adorable little girl and she has the best family she can possibly have. Please tell us how she was injured. I worry about Daisy jumping down so much. I dread the day that she can't walk from jumping too far when she doesn't realize what she's doing. Kisses to that sweet little baby from me please

I love the siggy, Pam. How adorable!!
