I'm so sorry to hear about the nightmare you and your sweetie went through!<BR/>I am actually shocked that the other dog owner only paid half of the vet bill. You could have easily insisted that her dog be euthanized (at least here in VA.)<BR/>I have to say I am happy about the way you handled the situation.<BR/>Honestly, though, the other woman should have sought you and your husband out to check on your dog. I hope she has learned a lesson! Hope Maddie is doing ok and not in pain any more.Tanjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17853194850013375568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4826179313232903979.post-7933150835554864892008-10-12T20:35:00.000-07:002008-10-12T20:35:00.000-07:00This is my first visit to your site and while tryi...This is my first visit to your site and while trying to go back to older posts, I stopped at this one because I feel I was meant to read it. First, let me say that I'm sorry about Maddie and hope she is feeling better. Secondly, I want to thank you for sharing this story. I really need to learn to become assertive even though it is very hard for me. Reading this gave me an example of how tactfully touchy situations can be handled. I also want to tell you that I love your cards. I am trying to overcome my fear of not being good enough and begin crafting, scrapbooking, and card making. I love your blog, I will definitely bookmark it.dragonflydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14066961126558621199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4826179313232903979.post-87237507841488394142008-09-24T22:10:00.000-07:002008-09-24T22:10:00.000-07:00Oh, poor Maddie.

I haven't blurfed over to your blog in about a week (my laptop is about dead and your blog is bookmrked on that, not this desktop) and I missed so much! I am so glad that things worked out with Maddie, and the vet bill, and the neighbor, and that your precious pup is doing so much better. I have had a couple very special dogs in my life, so I know what it is to feel for your pet. I'll be checking in more often!Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07568618668538995463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4826179313232903979.post-40696595667039753622008-09-18T17:54:00.000-07:002008-09-18T17:54:00.000-07:00First, I'm glad that Maddie's better.

That's the kind of dog he is. <BR/><BR/>Second, I am so proud of you for going up to this woman and telling her what happened. I don't know that I could have done the same, but I would have wanted to do so. And the ear, that was perfect. Morbid, but it needed to be done.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you had your feelings validated. Now Maddie will heal with you.<BR/><BR/>Give her a nice snuggle for me, please.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00969997777347317749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4826179313232903979.post-46495947838319602842008-09-17T19:46:00.000-07:002008-09-17T19:46:00.000-07:00OH NO!

And I am so proud of you...you did something that I don't know if I could have-and that woman was also apparently a kind person and her empathy was worth more than money. <BR/><BR/>Several years ago I took my cat to the vet only to be told that her teeth were bad and had to be pulled. I cried the day I brought her home because they had to pull more than they thought and her mouth was caving in and it changed the look of her beautiful face. But years later (and more tooth extractions later!!) she is my same wonderful baby...and totally cracks me up when her top lip gets caught on the one tooth she has left and her tiny pink tongue hangs out between her velvety lips! It sounds sad but believe me it's cute and funny and she's the same with or without teeth!<BR/><BR/>I am so glad that Maddie is making a full recovery as I read in today's post and in time you will too! Hugs!!!dpkennedyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12362101930554978702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4826179313232903979.post-9060505692796128682008-09-16T07:50:00.000-07:002008-09-16T07:50:00.000-07:00Gosh, I'm so sorry to hear that happened - poor ba...Gosh, I'm so sorry to hear that happened - poor baby.

Maddie is so luckey to have the two of you as parents. She looks so sad. Give her a kiss from Oma! I will send her a get well gift. God is great! He guided you to the right house and stayed beside you throughout what must of been a very tense and emotional conversation. I was afraid the owners of the other dog would only deny any wrongdoing. Thats why I told you not to go door to door. I did'nt think they would validate your feelings so I was trying to spare you the pain. Wow, ye of little faith. I'm so proud of you for listening to your heart and following thru. You taught me a valuble lesson today.
