    IMO, I would suggest that you give her all the support you can, which I'll bet you are. I'd hate to hear that she relapsed after such a shock. Make sure you stress to her that it was an accident. Plain and simple. I can't imagine what a horrible experience it was. Annie may have had a short life, but it was happy and that's what counts.

    I have friends who have sliding glass doors and they put decals on them.

    I'm so sorry for everyone involved.

    She was just just a wild little thing. The lace curtains were closed. She just ran. She met our girls just a couple weeks ago and ran with them at the park. Ashlee really liked her. I told her it was not her fault, but as you know, we always blame ourselves. We will get through this, but it will take some time. I'm sure she won't get another dog this time.
    Pleae tell everyone with sliding galss doors to keep an eye on the pups, Annie was young, and just didn't know.

    Tell her it wasn't her fault, and that Annie, young as she was, learned all about love while she was there. Someday she will see her again at The Rainbow Bridge, full of exuberance and joy, there she is whole and healed, and in no pain. Tell her that maybe a little child who always wanted a doggie but died needed an angel doggie friend, and that child and Annie will play at The Rainbow Bridge until your friend meets them there.

    Thank you Karen. I'm just getting ready to go to her house this morning and see how the night was. For me and Tom it was a sad and upsetting night. Not much sleep. I'm sure she is a mess.
    This all seems so unreal, like a bad dream.

    I read this shortly after you posted it last night. But I couldn't bring myself to post. Mainly because I couldn't see my computer screen through the tears.
    Yes, the best thing you can do is to be there for her. Reassure her it was an accident. But mainly just listen, let her talk about Annie.
    Ok, computer screen is getting fuzzy again.......
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    How awful! I think what everyone said about covers it. Prayers and hugs for your friend, and RIP dear Annie.

    OMG, what a shock! I can't believe this happened. I'm so sorry for your friend. I hope she is doing OK, although I don't think I would be. How awful for her. I don't really know what to say to her, other then give her support/let her cry etc. I've been through the death of my dog but it certainly wasn't so shocking! That's just an awful freak accident!

    (hugs) to her and you!
