thanks Deanna - it made my day. I have been thinking of you so much and have a card that I am sending off to your daughter I am so sorry and you and your family have been in my prayers how kind of you to even respond to me and my silly woes when you are going through your sorrows. I have no words of comfort for you as I do not even know what you are going through except that God will walk you through it. Please let me know if I can do anything for your family. It makes me feel silly for worrying about what day I am getting a dog when you have so much more things on your heart. Love, Nancy and girls

Yesterday was just a bad day for you, that's for sure. The grieving is natural and with your emotions all in an uproar it was easy for this to upset you terribly. For most pups I think 8 weeks is optimum for forming new attachments.... that's what an OES dog breeder told me years ago when we got our Duffy. But, I don't know if that is true with chihuahuas. You won't relax, I'm sure, until you have her in your arms and home safe with Abby. I'll be thinking about you..... hugs, mj and benji girl From: Nancy Lucky <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Fri, October 8, 2010 9:14:37 AM Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] I have a question?(Nancy) Rylee, thank you for taking the time to read my long email. She emailed me this morning and told me that as long as Maggie was eating okay that she would let me have her as planned. I feel so much better - thanks again for the support it meant a lot to me :) --- On Fri, 10/8/10, Rylee O'Neill <[email protected]> wrote: From: Rylee O'Neill <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] I have a question?(Nancy) To: [email protected] Date: Friday, October 8, 2010, 7:25 AM Nancy- It sounds like you are grieving very much. Please know your emotions and behaviors are "normal" with grief. Most people have reactions to anniversaries (birthdays, day of death, holidays, etc.) What you are experiencing will ease with working through your emotions. Please feel free to cry and experience the pain of your loss. It is the only way it will become easier. As for your new little chi- be patient. It is very frustrating to get your hopes up to have a change in plans. I would suggest you call the breeder and work to find a middle ground. It sounds like she is trying to do what she feels best for the pup and the mother. Also- I hear a lot of self blame in your posts. It is not your fault Sami died. Life is precious, none of us get out of here alive. Whatever happened with Sami was not your fault. It hurts but please try to forgive yourself. Sami would be so sad to think you were berating yourself over him. He only wanted happiness for you.

Today is the 1st year anniversary of the loss of my little Sami and it has been a tough day for me. Because my baby died in my arms, I have not been comfortable leaving her with anyone since I have gotten her. I have only left her maybe twice and its been only for a very short time. Since I am considered by ADA as permanently disabled Abbey has been able to become a registered service/companion dog. Tonight I had to go to a retirement dinner for a lady that I worked with for over 20 years and I left Abbey with my neighbor who Abbey loves. I was only gone 2 hours but when I got home and she saw me you would of thought she won a million dollars, she ran up to me and kissed and kissed me and she was so happy to see her mommy. I don't think anyone loves me like she does. As you all know I am getting Abbey's bological sister who was born on Aug 30 - she is a singleton (only puppy) and is doing great, already using the potty pads. But she has no one to play with, the breeder brought in one of her smaller younger pups and Maggie wanted to play but the other Chi wanted nothing to do with her. Linda, the breeder told me several weeks ago that I could have Maggie at 8 weeks old. I have been marking the calendar and tonight when I got home she said she changed her mind, as they do better being with their moms longer so they can teach them things. Well I agree if there are others in the pack but since she is the only one I do not know what the mother can teach her. I am devestated as I have had so much sadness lately that I have been so looking forward to getting her marking off the days. Plus since she lives over two hours away I had to arrange for someone to drive me there and my daughter could do it that day as its the weekend and she does not have her day care kids. I am so upset and feel betrayed. When Maggie was born and she contacted me she aslo said she would give me a GREAT deal. But it took her for ever to tell me what the GREAT deal was. I thought since I paid 850.00 for Abbey and they are from the same parents that it would be an amount that is less than 850 but the deal was 1,000! I did not say anything because I have fallen in love with her. But they are always saying how much they are enjoying her and how much she loves them. I sent her 500.00 already and now I am wondering what to do. I think that she should of not said that to me and gotten my heart all excited and then change her mind. Does anyone have any advice. I have been crying all day long, first because of missing my little boy and now because of this. I do not know what to do? Please hlep.

I was wondering if it was normal for chihuauas to be a kinda jealous? Like when I am playing with my sisters dog or paying attention to him she's all over me... We are pretty much in seperable anyway. I think it's cute but how do I make sure it doesn't turn in to a bad thing!
