Frayja - May 2007 - December 25, 2007
Hello Yvette,
I hope you and the dogs had a very merry christmas, and santa paws brought
lots of presents. Santa paws spoiled Frayja this year, because she was being
such a good puppy and so brave too, getting over her virus.
We went for a christmas walk today with my nephews that are up for christmas,
and of course Cracker came.
When we were just about in the door Frayja spotted a dog across the road,
and being a puppy, immediatly started to run to greet it.
Sadly, my baby did not see the car comming….and got hit, very hard.
Tears immetiadtly started to stream from my eyes, as I screamed and dashed
to my little girls aid. When I reached her she looked pretty bad, she was pewking up
blood, and couldn’t move very much despite her efforts to reasure me she was o.k., being
the good girl she was.
On the way to the vets, after giving an emergency call to our very good vet, Cally, Frayja
wasn’t looking good. I pet her, kissed her, even though it wasn’t a pleasant thing to do, cuz of
her condition. She lifted her head to my face to give me a kiss, I taught her to kiss my lips with only
her lips, no licks. Though I still loved her slobbery kisses to. Taking very spaced out, last breathes….
…my puppy died…..on christmas day. I really loved Frayja, we had such a close bond, as I spent every
waking moment with her, because I home school for the time being. She even came babysitting with me
to play with the lady’s dogs. I just thought that I should let you know, because of course i’m sure
you like to be informed of the dogs well being. Thank-you for everything. Merry Christmas.

Marissa and family,
I am very sorry for your loss - we also lost our dog in our car while rushing to the vet and doing first aid a few years ago. I can relate to how traumatic and horrible your situation was first hand. Alley (who was more like our first child) passed away in my arms in the front passenger seat of our car while driving down the highway. There isn’t a lot that I can say that will make you feel better right now but please know that you and your girl will be in my prayers. If you would like to talk to someone else who has been through a similar situation please ask TG for my email address. I know that you will never forget the trauma of that day but I hope that like myself one day you are able to find peace again.
Bless you on your journey toward healing,
Melissa Giles

So very sorry to read of the loss of lovely Freya. There is not much one can say to make her passing any easier, but I think there is something to be said for the fact that she died in the arms of someone who loved her, and that she was fortunate to have found a happy home with you and your family. My thoughts and condolences are with you, I know how sad it is to lose a beloved pet.

Thank-you everyone. Frayja is on her way to Terrace to be creamated and in the summer i will plant a rose bush with her ashes, and a plaque. I will always keep a rose with me.
