I am sorry for your loss. I always believed dogs will get away from a slow moving vehicle - our dogs are all at the gate when anybody gets home = but I guess anything can happen.

Thanks everyone for the kind words and sharing your experiences. The wife took it like I thought she would. Which isn't saying anything bad just the way I figured. I dug the hole yesterday and did the deed. Mollie's laid to rest but not forgotten. I'm working on the board for her. I had to call all of the kids last night as well since they pretty much grew up around her or her them. It's funny, kind of, they've moved on and they've got their own lives now and it seems they were consoling me more than I was them, kind of like a role reversal from when they were younger. Anyway, I guess this is another chapter in our lives and we all have them. I'm not playing the event over and over so much in my mind now so the healing is happening. Thanks again guys.

We lost a dog once due to a freak accident. The neighbor had a young piglet that got out and wandered into the yard up next to the fence where we had the dogs. The dogs went nuts, chasing the piglet up and down the fence line, and one finally wedged his head into a tight slot between the corner fencepost and wire. It was so tight that it strangled him before anyone could get there to cut the wire. I hadn't got home from work yet and my wife had to tell me about it when I got there. Very sad. . . .
Jay, I'm sorry about your loss of a best friend. It sure is tough to give them up.

So sorry Jay. Dogs do usually move away from slow moving stuff, just one of those accidents that happen to good dogs and good people sometimes.
Dave.

Jay, my condolences as well. In spite of what some people think, I don't believe you ever forget those special pets, at least I don't; remember the good as well, and how your and others' lives were enriched by her presence. 'Nuf.

Don't remember how she died, it's irrelevant and there's nothing you can do to change it. Instead, honor her by remembering how she lived.
