My Dog Bella passed tragically, only 3 days ago. My cousin had got her from an animal shelter a year ago. He was working at the time and asked for my help to make sure she was taken care of while he was gone. She was only a few months old, at first she was hesitant to my presence, but after the first two days she warmed up to me. We would do everything together, and she would follow me everywhere. I was her protector and she was my bestfriend. She came into my life after a difficult 2 years of family drama. She was the sweetest girl and had the biggest heart. It's crazy how events happen and how things unfold unfavorably sometimes. 3 days ago I was finishing dinner and for some reason had the urge to go take my dog for a walk... I usually would of gone to the park up the street but I had my mother's car for the day. It was already late and I should of just stayed home. I went to a new park thinking a change of scenery would be good. It was fine and she had fun. We were walking back to the car and I had a chance to put her in the passenger side. Like I said we go everywhere together so naturally she goes in on the driver's side. There was no sign of any other cars in sight... I was looking for the keys in my pockets and she slipped her collar right off.... Before I could turn around and grab her a car came down the road and hit her .. the hardest part was witnessing the aftermath... It was so horrible. I knew there wasn't much time to do anything and she would be gone. She was a Chug half pug half Chihuahua. The impact almost crushed her. I didn't know what to do so I tried to rush home... It wasn't enough she was gone within minutes. Though I've had 2 other dogs in my life she was the one that made the biggest impact in my life.... It's so hard though, It just plays in my head over and over. I can't ever change what happened or get her back, but I loved that little sweet dog from the bottom of my heart. I haven't stopped crying. Typing this from my phone in the garage. Just needed to vent. I'll never forget the good memories I will always cherish. I love you Bella you were my "fatest girl"
