Somehow, the back gate came open and Lexie went exploring. We searched the neighborhood high and low until 1:30 in the morning. Then our friend Chris found Lexie. She had been hit by a car and killed.
She was a rescue that I brought home ten years ago. She would have been 12 years old in three weeks. Lexie could be silly, funny, goofy, smart, happy, sad. With a heart of gold and loyalty to each of her family members. She loved everybody.
A nightmare for us. Our Lexie, with her "lashing tail of death" and her love of stuffed toys, treats and "hunting wabbits" in the backyard. Over the Rainbow Bridge.
Our hearts are breaking.

OH my god, Robin, I am so, so sorry. What a terrible thing to happen to her, and to you as well. You've all been through so much this year, my heart is just aching in the worst way possible.
Sending you so much love right now and my heart and thoughts are with Lexie as well. May she be at peace across the Rainbow Bridge, with many a wabbit to chase and soft grass to roll around in. You guys are never far from my mind and I wish I could give you the biggest of in person hugs.
Robin..I am so sorry to read this. What a terrible shock. Somethng like this can happen to anyone's dog. Please know you are in my thoughts and take as long as you need to grieve. Then, remember the dog through wonderful memories. Rest in peace, Lexie. Hugs, Deb
Oh Honey!!! I am so very sorry to hear this! I know how much you must be hurting. My heart goes out to you. ♥ May the warmth and comfort of Gaia's Love envelope you. ♥
Robin, I don't know what to say! I am so sorry! I pray she didn't suffer! Sending out big warm hugs to you and the family!
Unconditional love from the most wonderful, loving dog who always loved me....I saw her eyes open, I heard when her eyes closed. Mine are tearful and sad for this awful loss. I will always remember her greetings at your door, Robin, like none else.
Over rainbow bridge. She's smiling down with her wonderful presence. I love Lexie.
Oh Goddess...so terribly, horribly sorry for your loss. You've all been through so much, and now to lose a member of your family. Wishing you peace and good memories until you're reunited again.
So so so so sorry.
I am shocked to read this sad news about Lexie Girl, Robin. My heart is breaking for you all. Wishing you all better times ahead and SOON! Love, Sandy

I'm very sad for you, your family to have to be without the wonderful presence of Lexie.
Such a happy being will go on, and you will be with her again.

OMG Robin, I am so very sorry to hear about this! My heart goes out to you and your family. My mother lost an elderly dog a few years ago when she somehow managed to get outside the fence and wondered into the next door neighbor's creek, apparently slipped on a rock and drown. It was terrible.
Goddess bless your Lexie-girl in Rainbow Ridge!
Much love,
Kim
