You are doing a great job with your babies,Dont ever think otherwise.

It is so very unfortunate,I have had many friends loose there pups to the same thing,it is not your fault.

Rest well sweet little one.

I'm so sorry Don't blame yourself, hon. You couldn't have been with them all the time. Everything happens for a reason and it was the little fella's time to go. He's at the bridge now, getting bigger and stronger.

Rest in Peace Little Guy

Rest easy little golden boy. Don't blame yourself Nicole, it was a tragic accident and not your fault.

Thanks everyone. I know I am taking this harder then normal and I also know why. My disability is the main cause for how this is affecting me. I know that but I can't change that. I know it is natures way and accidents happen. But for me knowing something and feeling something are two totally dfferent things.

Golden was only 5 days old but it is amazing how much personality they show even at that age. And in 5 days it is amazing how attached you can get to these little guys.

I am there for the others and they have just as much of my heart as Golden does. Just because tragity happens doesn't mean my responsibility stops. They need me. But it doesn't change how guilty I still feel.

Thank you all for your support. I so need it right now. I am trying to focus on doing as we have been for the past week but it is hard. It is nice to know I have friends here who can understand and support me when things like this happen.

Oh, I'm so sorry. I think it's just natural to blame ourselves, "if only I had...", but the sad truth is that if it's time, it's time, regardless how long or short that may be. My heart goes out to you & Sheena, she must feel so sad. At least with six growing boys to take care of, she will be keeping busy. And I know a Big Golden Boy who was probably standing there to greet little Golden boy and will watch out for him. (((hugs)))to you & Sheena.

Is Sheena ok, Nicole?

HUGS to you and those precious babies and the mom!

[NicoleLJ]

Thanks so much.

Sheena is doing better. Last night she kept counting her pups and then looking for the missing one. Then over night she kept crying for him. But today she seems better. Wants to cuddle more with me and she is being overly protective of the 6 she has but I figure in a few more days she will go back to normal. I am trying to keep the routine she is used to going with some added play and cuddle time. I think she will be fine though in a few days. I know it hit her hard because she is a very emotionally sensative dog(which is one of the reasons she makes such a great PSD). But she is strong and with 6 boys they will keep her busy soon.
