Today a tear dropped from my face when searching for a picture in 'my pictures' folder for a presentation I'm preparing. I've just stared at a photo of my dog Luna, gone since the 21st of September. Luna was 4 1/2 years old when was hit by a car at front door. The car did not stop. I run toward her just to find her barking and staring at me asking for help - it was the beginning of some of the worst minutes of my life. I grab her and started yelling to my wife, who was at home trying to put my son to sleep. Not knowing what to do, I tried some reanimation, but quickly understood that I couldn't be of much help. Then I run to the local vet, where they were just waiting us, but, after 5 minutes, she gave us the news: there was nothing to do. I stayed at home for the following 3 days. I felt miserable.
Every day when arriving at home, during a brief second, I get from my mind the horrible images of that night. According to life's natural law I was sure that one day Luna would leave us, but never crossed my mind it'll be so soon and the way it was.
Luna was treated like a person, by me and my wife, and the only thing i know is that a miss her a lot. Sometimes we recall the great moments we lived with Luna, but unfortunately it is just remembering.
Finally, i just want to express my indignation when i see a dog being maltreated. I think that someone who harm a dog can harm a person.
I miss Luna a lot and, no matter how many years i live, I'll never forget.
