I wo year old uld like to share what happened to my precious little dog, Sarah Sue Tobey, who was 14 years and 2 months. It is unbelievable that within 3 hours my precious little dog who went everywhere I did was gone. And now, I can't enjoy her, and be with my companion. On Sunday July 31, I wanted to go to Medford, Oregon to do some shopping.
So, I stopped by a few stores including buying her shampoo conditioner which I never got to use. Then, my final stop was at Meier and Frank which was her last stop of her little life. The 15 year old girl who had always previously took her on walks, and etc.
She asked me if she could take her on a walk, I told her that it was ok, but afterwards she needed to get my baby stroller and put her in it. So, I went into the store to get my watch so my dog and I could go camping with Johnyl. (the 15 year old) Afterwards, I went out to my car and I didn't see either of them. So, I drove around the Mall to see if I could see them. I did not, but on the way in I felt panicy on the inside. Just as I went in I went up to someone and told them that I needed to speak to security because I had a 15 year old and my dog was missing. They took me to where I saw my precious little dog stuck in the escalator, they informed me the called 911 for the fire department to get her out. When she got her out her tail was broken in 3 places, and she had major injuries from the escalator. The vet said she would have to have 3 surgeries, and $3,000.00 of medical vet bills. So, I had to make the painful decision of putting her to sleep, and say good bye to her. So, she was put out of her pain, and I'm lonely for her, and without my 14 year old compaionion because a teenager didn't follow directions or obey, and now my doggie is dead. So, now I don't want to trust anyone with my doggie again.
Some of you have asked what happened to Sarah Sue Tobey, and this is our tragic story. I miss her so much, and I was so stressed out that I wonder if I made the right decision, people try to tell me I did, but truthfully I don't know. I hope Sarah is in heaven watching out after her Mom who is having such a hard time to what happened to her.
I think from now on I will have an emergency list of people to call if an emergency happens with my beloved pet companions.
