She was a stray and still keeps that stray dog mentality. I have often driven through the neighborhood balling my eyes out shaking a bowl of dog food trying to catch her attention. She always wanders back like nothing ever happened. Argh.<BR/><BR/>These little buggers don't know how good they have it.Identity Mixedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06133742931286405123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9684236.post-29866256644853095642008-02-10T20:17:00.000-05:002008-02-10T20:17:00.000-05:00Oh, Julie, how dreadful.Ten years ago -- when we l...Oh, Julie, how dreadful.<BR/><BR/>Ten years ago -- when we lived in a different house -- my kids were playing in the front yard and watched as a car came speeding through and hit one of our cats. He was still alive when I got him to the vet's, but died minutes later. It was so traumatic. We all just cried and cried, and my oldest son (who was 9 at the time) stayed home from school because he was so upset.<BR/><BR/>So I know what a horrible experience this must have been. Hugs. And I hope he heals ....jo(e)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01488562158252331555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9684236.post-11018539387670586522008-02-10T15:57:00.000-05:002008-02-10T15:57:00.000-05:00Oh jeez.

We can't live our lives planning for every possible bad outcome. Our kids play sports, drive cars, etc. We just live our lives. <BR/><BR/>I'm so glad Rocky will be okay. I'm so sorry for the expense. (ouch) But after the first part of the post, I felt mainly HUGE relief! My pets mean so much to me, and having recently had one die, I am perhaps more emotional than usual about it.<BR/><BR/>(((Hugs))) for everyone.carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00483414028348315498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9684236.post-28271948493824848812008-02-10T14:56:00.000-05:002008-02-10T14:56:00.000-05:00I am with amp on this one.. my heart hurts for you...I am with amp on this one.. my heart hurts for you all and for Rocky.kc bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17440862813109808755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9684236.post-81566690858300792022008-02-10T14:42:00.000-05:002008-02-10T14:42:00.000-05:00Oh!

Our dog piper was hit the week before I left in a very similar fashion and I haven't really had a chance to process that yet. The rescue agency we got him from was *brutal* when I told them; I know you went through that ordeal when you got Rocky so my next thought, after the dog, you, and the kids, was "oh, she's going to have to TELL them!" Ugh! <BR/><BR/>accidents happen for sure but I'm so glad it sounds like he's going to earn his "super dog" cape instead!RedGypsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05815665930331083845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9684236.post-31819386155522510602008-02-10T14:07:00.000-05:002008-02-10T14:07:00.000-05:00Thanks for all the well wishes.

Our one dog runs away from us all the time.<BR/><BR/>You are not the problem. The driver of the car really is. If the organs are ok, Rocky will live again for a few more movies like the Stallion from Philly.<BR/><BR/>And it's always $1000 - $1500 for emergencies.
