RIP Chiquita 1-4-2010
16 years ago
Chiquita died on January 4th, 2010, of an accident. It unfortunantly involved me, and I have felt very very guilty and sort of empty.
What happened: My BF was at the door of the bedroom, knocking on it because his hands were full with food. All the dogs rushed towards the door and as i was getting off the bed, Chiquita dodged under my feet in a rush to get to the door. Most the time this ends up with a squeak if indignation when part of the pressure of the foot hits the body...but this time it was fatal. My foot his jsut right to connect with her skull and...and crushed it. Since then I have felt so Guilty and empty.
Yes I know it was an accident, yes I know there was no way except in hindsight to prevent it. But it still hurts.
So this video is a memorial. A friend of mine sent it to me, it was our third litter, and thats chiquita there, the mother. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qLRN0GlkiY
I can take maybe a smidgin of...something... that her death was at least quick, as she never made a sound.
I am so sorry Chiquita...

People, this is why training is so important, especially for small pets.
