I wasn’t ready to share this yet,
But many of you have reached out asking what happened to Zelda. 😭
Zelda wasn’t sick. 💟
Zelda was perfect. 🥰
Sunday morning, my family experienced a devastating tragedy. Zelda was killed during a dog attack involving another dog in our home. Her sister, Betty White, was also injured trying to save her sister and is currently recovering. 🥺😭
There are no words to describe the heartbreak of losing Zelda, while also grieving another dog in the same day. My heart is shattered, and honestly, I am still trying to process how life changed so drastically in a matter of moments.
Right now, my focus is on helping Betty White heal and finding a way to navigate a grief I never imagined I would face.
I appreciate the kindness, prayers, and support so many of you have already shown. Please be patient with me as I work through this profound loss, of such a special dog.
There have been many questions about what happened to Zelda, Betty White, and Gypsy.
I have struggled to find the words because the truth is devastating, it’s surreal and it still very much feels like a god damn nightmare.
Due to the severity of what occurred, Gypsy was humanely euthanized.
In less than 24 hours, I lost my soul dog, watched another dog I adore suffer traumatic injuries, and said goodbye to a dog who was also part of my family, and who I also loved. 😭
I know some people will want details, but right now I am asking for grace and understanding. My heart is still trying to process the unimaginable. My house is quiet, it’s empty, the void is huge.
Please keep Betty White in your thoughts as she heals. My girl is suffering and is traumatized unlike anything I’ve ever seen.
Please remember Zelda for the joyful, digging girl she was, always getting caught but looking so sweet she never really got into trouble.
I’m just a girl whose heart got broken in three different directions on the same day. 💜
I don’t know how to navigate this. These are MY dogs.
Grateful for the distraction of the rescue dogs.
Comments are off: you can send me a private message if you feel called too, but I don’t need any help to blame myself. I am not okay. 😭
