My Pit Bull, Rocsi, passed away today. She seemed fine until yesterday. She was drooling with some foam hanging from her mouth. She was breathing a little fast. Her stomach was moving a lot. But there was no panting. She seemed a little weak. Not really happy or responding to me. Her head was a little low. I was gonna take her to the vet today if she didn't get any better. But I guess I was too late. I'm devastated. I can't help but blame myself. If anyone one knows what it could have been please respond.

How sad for you! Dont blame yourself. Your dog could have had an undiagnosed illness or physical defect. It could also have been poisoning. The only way to know for sure would be an autopsy.
I cant help but to think it was my fault. I knew she was sick but i pushed it off as she will be ok by tomorrow if not I would take her to the vet. I would do an autopsy just to know the cause but then again it wouldnt change anything.
How sad. You have my deepest condolences on your loss.
Second guessing yourself is only going to make you crazy. I know because my sweet fur baby was ill and died in the car on the way to the vet 3 years ago this week. I was so upset...if I got her there earlier...if if if...a million what ifs.
If I think to much it still makes me sad and crazy, but the vet said to me that you never know and you do the best you can do and you did the best you could do with the information you had at hand.
She said sudden death can occur without rhyme or reason. You may never know what happened. That is the hardest part, but it is like humans that pass suddenly or too young...you just never know, but you have to have faith that it is all in the big plan.
You loved your baby. You took care of your baby and G-d has the final word on when she crossed over, not you.
It is important to know you and your baby had a lovely life together and that her memory will always be a blessing.
If you need help with grief counseling, I strongly encourage you to seek it out. Our animal shelter has grief counseling and so do some of the human funeral homes (for people that have lost a person or pet.)
You and your fur baby will be in my prayers.
Your right. Thats what im going through right now. I keep thinking about the last time I saw her. All the what ifs. What if I took her to the vet that very moment? What if I stayed with her in stead of leaving her alone in her kennel? Was she in pain? Was she sad. Did she think I gave up on her and didnt care? I should of spent more time with her. It was getting routine of me to just feed her then leave my house to be with my girlfriend all the time.
This is so sad and you can not blame yourself for what happened. I had a dog this happened to one night very late. Where I live the vet is not opened and they do not have emergency services. The dog ended up dying in the middle of the night. I am not sure what really happened but we had the two dogs in the river playing this day and one of them got sick.
It is very hard to say what really happened and why the dog got so sick. Again I am so sorry for your loss and I know it hurts so badly when you lose a pet that you love so much.
Sorry for what happened to your dog. I dont know what caused dogs death but I also think it may have been poisoning. I dont know how she would of gotten poisoned unless god forbid a neighbor threw poison near her too eat. My dad also put rat poisin but he said he wouldnt do it near her kennel. I found what looked like dried blood in the middle of her kennel.
