OKAY I HAVE TO VENT! Okay so yesterday morning I picked up my new puppy, pikoneese mixed with a maltese. Since I am moving in 2 weeks, my friend offered to watch the dog and take care of it. I trusted her and felt good leaving him with her. I dropped him off and received a message not even an hour later, saying she lost my dog and shes been 'going crazy looking for it' . I left the house in a complete panic with my other friend and searched everywhere for him. We finally found him lying in the middle of the street full of blood. After taking him to the emergency clinic, costing $700, he has a hole under his chin, blind in one eye, bleeding inside his ear, broken jaw, broken bones around his eye, and his breathing was affected. I get sick thinking about it and have never been so upset. We took him to a regular vet today and he is in poor shape abd doesnt look too good. That cost another $1500 And we just made the decision to put him to sleep. I cannot believe this is happening and feel this is a nightmare. I am so disgusted with my friend, hpw could you not put the dog on a leash? And you chased it? BS, it was right across the street, it didnt get very far, its a 5 pd dog for gods sake. I cannot believe the irresponsibility, and dont think I will be ever able to forgive her. This has truly hurt me.

I am so sorry to hear this! That's terrible. I would feel the same way and would probably never be able to forgive your friend either.

HOW DID SHE LOSE YOUR DOG EXACTLY?
Did you ask? If she was alking her without a leash...a maltese coudln't have gone far without her noticing? Or even catching up to it?
I would be questioning HOW THIS HAPPENED EXACTLY!

WOW. If it were me, it would take a LOT for me to continue being friends with this person. Maybe she's just in denial right now?

She claims he jumped out of the car. He didnt get very far at all, went across the street. The leash wasnt even on him. And she claims she has a scraped knee and he bit her finger. Are you kidding? He has the littilest teeth ive ever seen. I even rang her doorbell to use her cell since mine was dead, and all she could say is 'im sleeping'.

Re: do you believe this?
why did she even have him outside to begin with?? shouldn't a puppy be house trained first?

Simply put, she didn't care. If that's her callous attitude, then she probably doesn't want to assume ANY responsibilty. If it was me, I'd be in pieces...

Omg! I am soo sorry! i would tell your friend since she was watching the dog and this happened by her that she should help with the medical bills how irresponsible can she be? again i am sorry for your loss of your puppy this makes me soo sad and even mad because the puppy should have been kept an eye on and she should have walked the pup in the backyard not the front. i dont think i would be able to forgive her either.

What a horribly sad story! I'm so sorry and I feel so bad for your little puppy. Your 'friend' is a piece of garbage, IMO
