Lil Man passed away yesterday. It was a freak deal and we are stunned. The husband is devastated and guilt ridden since he was involved in the incident. He states he "killed my dog." But I know it was an accident and find no fault in the events that happened. He said I could hate him if I wanted but I don't. Things happen for unknown reasons and the only thing I can guess is that the Lord needed a good dog this Easter weekend.
Y'all have watched him grow these past four months and I thought I owed it to you to let you know. This was the very last picture I took of him. How ironic, huh?

Oh honey, I'm so sorry to hear this... and I'm so sorry for your loss. If I'm aching like this, I can only imagine what you and your husband are going through...
I just don't know what to say, other than you're both in my thoughts and prayers...
I guess the Lord knew a good dog when he saw him!
{{{{Big hugs}}}}
Oh my gosh, I am soo, soooo sorry! Poor little man. He was so young. I loved watching him grow. He sure will be missed.
Wow, that is such an ironic picture. Who is buried there?
Oh no, I am so sorry! I lost 4 animals in 10 months, 3 of them in 3 months (2 dogs and 2 horses). My heart goes out to you and your husband.
oh no ! i am so sorry from the bottom of my heart!
Poor hubby! What he must be going through as well!
HUGs and Love to you from me...
So sorry for you loss. And that your husband feels he's to blame. My thoughts are with you.

What a terrible thing to have happened. No words seem right, I've suffered loss too with my beloved pet-family members...hugs!
Oh my goodness! I am so sorry and shocked. I don't really know what to say, but I am so sorry. I know how much you loved your Little Man. Sending you some big ((((HUGS))))).
I am so very sorry for your loss. Hug that husband. He's gotta feel terrible. Unfortunately, accidents do happen. So sorry.
I am so sad and shocked to read the news about Lil' Man. You and Hubby will be in my thoughts and prayers. Hubby needs not to be hard on himself. As hard as is, things happen for a reason. You had a few wonderful months with him, and he knew he was truly loved.Hugs to you both.
What sad news. That's the reality of ranch life. With so many different kinds of animals and humans all co-existing, sometimes, accidents happen. I liked how you said it, the Lord needed a good dog on Easter weekend. His romps in heaven will be as joyful as his romps on the ranch.
Hang in there. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your hubby!!
Oh Kit, I so sorry for your loss. We'll be thinking of you.
I am also so very sorry. What a sad thing to happen to both of you. Sending out big hugs and sympathy.

There are no words that can express how shocked and saddened we are by the news. You will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Kit & George - I am so sorry to hear about this - you have lost two very precious dogs in a short time and that is extremely difficult. I am saddened for you and thinking about you both.
oh dear lil man. How absolutely tragic. I feel so bad for both of you, losing both your dogs that I know you love so much, and for your husband to have the guilt that he must be feeling as well. Im so sorry.
Oh I am so sorry to hear that. What a tough time for you and I know you loved him very much. Our thoughts and prayers are with you both.
Oh no, that's terrible news. But I agree that the Lord saw what a wonderful dog he is and decided he would love his company up above. My thoughts are with you and your hubby today!
I am so very very sorry.
My mouth & heart just dropped when I read your post. Lil Man has made his way into all of our homes by way of your pics & posts the past few months and he will be missed. My heart goes out to both of you.
I am so sorry about Lil Man. I know how hard it hits me when I lose a pet. Poor hubby- I know he feels bad for being involved.
Oh, how sad, he was a very precious dog, and I know how sad it is to lose a dog you love. Hugs to you both.
Awwwwww :( xoxoxoxo sorry for your loss
Kit and George,
Words fail me, but my heart goes out to you right now. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. It seems to me that your last picture of Lil Man might be a sign that Lil Man is up in Heaven right now, waiting for you.
I am so sorry---I know how awful it feels, it has happened here as well.
Hang in there
And the final picture is perfect

Oh, I am so sad for you both..he was so damn cute..and growing so big....that last photo you will cherish for a long, long time. Losing a member of your family is not an easy thing..ever..under any circumstances. :(
My heart breaks for you all ... so sorry to hear this.
Oh my gosh, Kit. I just can't believe it.........
Poor Lil Man, and poor you guys. We have all fallen in love with him and it doesn't seem possible. I'm SO very sorry. What a hard, hard day for you. I'll be praying for your comfort through this and yes, your last photo of him was enough to take your breath away, in light of the circumstances.
Love and comfort to you both. (((big, big hugs)))
Oh, I'm stunned and so very very sad for you guys.
All my hugs and prayers coming your way!
Hi, just found your blog and didnt want to leave without a word for your loss. it simply hurts and takes time when a member of family isnt there aynmore. Big hug, paula xx
I am sooo sorry....Big bear hugs, Jamie
You're right, the Lord must have needed a good dog...you are in my thoughts and prayers~~
Heaven is loving your Lil Man! My prayers are for your comfort in this loss!
I did not expect to read this today! This makes me so sad for you guys. I have loved watching him grow up and your wonderful pictures of him, especially those from last week. Your last picture of him with the wooden cross, makes my heart ache for you. It does show so much irony. Sending hugs,prayers your way. Hope you are doing okay through this sad time.
My sister and I had a friend who was our softball teammate pass away on Saturday also. I know your heart is breaking just like ours is. I will be thinking of you!
We've experienced this kind of loss. Rips your heart in two when you love your animals like children. I'm holding you close to my hear today.
I am heartbroken for you both. I saw on my reader you had two posts and my first thought was that you might have pictures of Lil Man. My thoughts are with you.
Oh Kit...I am so sorry for you and your hubs... When the pups get old and leave us it's bad enough, but when they are youngsters, healthy and all, and an accident happens it is just devastating. And from the looks of that gorgeous photo of him sniffing at the cross, he found his way home.

Dang it, so,so Sorry! He was a fave of mine..
You are in my prayers. I know the pain of a lost pet, and my heart goes out to you both.
My heart goes out to you both. I'm so sorry. Little Man will be missed by us all.
So sorry for your loss...my heart goes out to both of you.
My wife and I are just back from a week in Arkansas: our grandson was born 4/13 at 7:52am...
8lbs 13.7oz !
I can't believe all that happened in one week!!!
Prayers for you, your husband, the four-leggeds and winged ones at your place and including the fire swept places all over Texas.
The family farm and ranch in Jack county did not sustain any damage although 25,000+ acres burned all around us. Many losses to friends ranches...
Our Nikki (beagle/dachshund) died in my arms from congestive heart failure last Sept... I think she and Lil Man will be good friends.
Respectfully,
Garlic Man

Oh My Gosh Kit! I am sooooo very sorry! My tears are running down my cheeks...danged!
I'm going to miss him! And yes, the Good Lord must have needed LilMan as His companion, so he is in good hands.
