I lost a dog once and it really broke my heart. My dog got hit by a car - he jumped the fence to go do his thing because it's mating season and a car swerved onto the sidewalk and hit him and drove off immediately after. Luckily he got hit unto muy neighbor's trampoline so it cushioned most of the impact. He broke a few bones but he's okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to find the fucker and torture them to a point that even the devil would tell you to take it easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I had a license plate or something to work with - my neighbor's camera only picked up what kind of vehicle it is. 1 hour ago, DC said: I am sorry to hear that.

The bastard must probably be drunk to have done that and had no remorse but to drive away. It would been a terrible way to lose one's loved dog. I'm happy he survived it.. He's a fighter.

It happened during the night as well and just heard my dog screaming out in pain in my neighbor's yard and while running over there I saw the tyre marks and started connecting the dots. My neighor has a camera system so that's how I confirmed he had been hit by a car and miraculously landed on the trampoline, bounced up and then dropped through the trampoline. That's what saved my dog - I even bought my neighbor a brand new trampoline even though he insisted he'd replace it himeself. Heatman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your dog is destined live long for that share of luck to pour down in that odd hour that happened. An unlucky dog would have been killed on the spot. You did well getting your neighbour a brand new trampoline. I would do the same if I were in your shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a great neighbor and even though none of us caused it, at the end of the day, that trampoline saved my dog because had he hit the ground at the initial velocity he was going, I doubt my dog would've survived.

Yeah - I'm happy he's almost fully healed. When I went to the vet, they had just finished examining him and were going to put him back in his enclosure. When I called out to him he jumped out of the Vet assistant's arm and ran straight to me and jumped in my arms. I was really tempted to take him home but he has a few more days of treatment before I can get him back. Heatman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few more days isn't going to be long and he's going to be back home soon. I would definitely love to see his pictures when he gets home if you don't mind 😊.

But when someone you love is unable to come home for "a few more days" those days feel like a lifetime. Trust me on that. We're going out of town for about a week here soon, and I'm already having separation anxiety due to being away from my pitbull for so long. I'm looking forward to getting home to see her again as much as I am to the trip, if not moreso.

If it's possible to take her, maybe you should consider it. I know it's going to cost more especially if you're flying but if you can afford to, do it.
