A sad week end.

Our dear friend and pal "Makita" our blue heeler dog was killed on the road out the front of our home Friday night and we are very upset to think such a horrible thing could happen to our dear dog and family member.
Many of you will not know that she was often my ears...............I am quite deaf and she was my ears if there was a knock at the back door.
We tied her up at night but for some reason she broke her chain and we found her next morning were she was hit on our very quiet road in our very quiet town.
Bless you dear friend 14 years of friendship will never be forgotten.

Oh Lee-Ann, I am so sorry to hear this news. I know how much my own dog is a part of our family, and he is always at my side or by my feet. Such a sad time for you. Sounds like your dog was a helper to you as well as a friend. Hugs to you.

Oh Lee-Ann,
I'm so saddened by your lose. It's never easy to loose a pet, but to lose such a close and constant companion is doubly hard to bear. She was a good and faithful companion for such a long time. You were both blessed with each other.
Prayers of peace and comfort being said for you and your family.

What a joy it was to see your comment on my blog but how sad when I came here to learn about Makita's death. Losing a pet is never easy but to lose one to such a terrible accident is just heart-breaking. My thoughts are with you.

Oh Leeann, I've just seen your blog. I'm so sorry to hear about your doggie, it's such a horrible way for an animal to die, and horrid for you to find him there...

It's so sad to lose a treasured friend like yours, Lee-ann. Although animal, they often become more than human and mean so much in our lives.

I hope you will find a new friend while still remembering Makita with love and appreciation for all that she meant to you.

thank you all for your kindness yes she will be missed very much by me and all those to knock on my door..........this weekend we had a friend trying to find me he was knocking, and ringing Rob at the same time telling him he could hear something inside the house but was worried I couldn't hear him at the door........it was funny because Rob then rang me and told me to go to the door before R9ichard has a heart attack thinking I am dead inside.....the silly thing was the door was open......Men!!! hugs to you all Lee-Ann
