Message: [QUOTE="BunduBasher, post: 236123, member: 17314"] I had a border collie called Mackie "Mackie Boy". He was the greatest dog ever, was like my first born, one day he was roaming in the front of the house, I did not see him when leaving to go to the shop and he chased the car out of the property, managed to beat the closing gate and chased us for a couple of miles, never did see him again. Next day we searched everywhere for him, stopped at the local vet, and he gave me the collar, said the poor boy had been run over. Mackie was like a naughty child, lovable, funny and full of life - definitely broke my heart that day. Silly things do happen Michelle, can't blame the dog, nor yourself, such is life. We can only remember the good times and treasure the special moments. Take your anger and pain out on the poor dog, and the same anguish you feel now will be inflicted on its owner, definitely a no win situation. The same day Mackie died we got another border collie pup, Chappie, turned out he had a totally different personality, was tougher, rougher, and also loads of fun, dogs, cats, gotta love them (hate them !), they sure have some great personalities ! - you will fell better in a day/week or two, go get another kitty and take it from there.
