On Sunday sept 9/12 my 5 month old German Shepard/Golden Retreiver puppy Atlas was hit and killed instantly infront of my house.
i am very upset over this happening as i cannot stop blaming my self for factors leading up to his short end.
it was the morning and i had let him and my 10 year old black lab out for there morning romp, and this morning instead of watching them like i do i went and did a few things around the house, when i heard my older dog barking and seen a man walking down my drive way... when i went out to stop Cerebus from barking the man had asked me if i had 2 dogs. and that he had just hit one... my heart went threw the ground... My poor baby, i should have had him tied or been out watching him as he was super loyal and intellegent
he had snuck across the road and was on his way back home when he jumped out of the ditch and got hit dead center by a VW car. he died pretty much instantly (Thank you Lord). the Car had suffered 2000$ worth of damage from hitting my boy.
i feel horrible about this happening even tho he was only with us a short 3 months he was a beautiful and smart dog. this happened early in the morning so my 2 year old was not awake thankfully.
we had a cremation service for Atlas, and my heart is still very broken.
i have considered contacting an animal comunnicator, just to put my mind to ease. i feel like a failure as a pet owner and my neglagence led to atlas death. and i can never get him back.
i feel very alone in this and would like some support so i found this site.
i feel that Atlas was put here to teach me a VERY valuable lesson, he was my daughter Joellas protector in the short time he was here and i belive that it was a very hard lesson i had to learn that i need to be more careful in watching my daughter around our property.
Rest Peacefully My Beautiful Boy. you will be missed every day Im So So Sorry <3
