Agree, except for one comment:
When adults have problems, it seems like the kids and pets suffer the most - animals sense and react to stressful environments, and all too often their behavior problems are a direct reflection of our own.

Oh Ash, I'm soooo sorry. I knew when you pm'd me back, that this is what your parents had decided. I can't quit crying

I just knew there was a reason I had the dream I had about him. Sounds weird I know, but alot of times my dreams have meaning, and most of the time it's not good. Again, I'm sorry that you had to let go of Chewy. Please know that my Keisha will be there to help him with his transition to the RB. I'm here if you need to talk.
Your friend
Anna

R.I.P. Sweet Chewy

Ash,
I just wanted to say I'm so sorry to hear about Chewy

May poor Chewy rest in peace

**RockyRoad** · 03-02-2003, 10:47 AM

Ash, I am so sorry about Chewy. I saw the poem to Chewy in your profile online on Friday, and I could not stop crying. I bet Chewy is making tons of friends on the RB, he might even have a girlfriend. Maybe he is watching you through the clouds saying "I love you, Ash."

Rest in peace dear Chewy.

Chris & Bob

**RubyMutt** · 03-02-2003, 04:37 PM

I'm so sorry for your loss

RIP Chewy

Ash,

I was just wondering, why did you have to give Tiffany up after 2 months.

**tomkatzid** · 03-02-2003, 05:11 PM

Ash,

Did you ever ask Mike if you could get her back?

Rest in Peace Chewy.

I woke up one morning with my littermates. I saw Mom lying there so I went over to get some breakfast. Mom was warm and she licked me all over. She loved us so much. Things were good back then. Now I am bigger and live in a home with two kids and their mom and dad. I used to be able to come in the house and play. They even let me sleep in the house. The children would run and I would chase them around. When I was little they would let me jump on them and even playfully bite them. The family would laugh and encourage me to play like this. They gave me lots of toys such as socks, shoes and stuffed animals. I had so much fun. Those were the days.

As I got bigger, I would accidentally knock the children down. I would try to bite them on the cuff of their pants as they ran. I found toys like the ones my master gave me when I was younger, and I would chew them up. They started getting mad at me all the time. When I jumped up they would knee me down. One minute they were laughing at me for play biting and chewing and the next minute they would spank me for doing the very same thing. I am so confused!

Now I spend my days, hour after hour, chained in the back yard. No one comes out to play with me. I am so happy to see them when they come out that I jump and bark with joy. I spend my days digging up the yard around me, which makes my masters mad at me. The fleas crawl all over me, which drives me crazy. I get so mad that I want to bite someone.

The more I sit out here the madder I get. I cannot understand why they brought me home just to chain me in the yard. If my masters are unhappy with my behavior, why not train me? Why did they encourage me to jump and bite?

Things have not gotten any better for me. Now I sit in jail. People come by my cage looking at me. I do not trust them so I bark and bare my teeth. No one wants me. Oh, no! Here comes a lady with a leash. Where is she taking me? She walks me into a room. Oh she likes me. It's so good to be hugged again. She puts a thing around my mouth so I cannot bite. What's this? She is sticking me in the leg. Oh, I am so sleepy. What has happened to me? I am asleep now. NO ONE CAN HURT ME ANYMORE.

such a sad story.......
unfortunately the true lives of soooo many dogs

**Crikit** · 03-02-2003, 09:08 PM

OH Ash

I'm so sorry to hear what your parents did. You did everything you could for Chewy but like most things, there's always someone with just a tad more power and they will always over rule. May Chewy RIP.
