sad

Our 5 month-old puppy died 2 days ago. Of course everybody was really upset.he was a healthy dog a few days before and all of a sudden he just wasted away.

That was sad enough but now, thanks to 2 colleagues, my mind is busy with thinking about the causes. At first I'd assumed he'd eaten something wrong though I couldn't think what that would be. But I thought about it as an accident. but those colleagues of mine both immediately asked if the dog had been poisoned. How would I know? Now, i wonder if there is someone in my neighbourhood who has disliked our dog so much that they felt the need to do something about it. I don't know if someone has, I just think about the possibility. The dog was no threat to anybody. He was in the yard, behaved well for a pup , yes was going to be big. He was half Alsatian, half Doberman. But a big-sized dog does not mean the dog is dangerous. I'm often more careful around the little ankle biters.

It is a horrible thought to have with me constantly and worse, there is no answer.
