After reading @Miremoses's post about his deceased dog I felt very sorry for him as I remembered my most lovely dog called Nellie whom I also lost a day to new year 2017.

31 was really a cold day to me as I was called at exactly 2:45pm by my colleague after traveling to lag on 29th of Dec to spend the festive season with my family. I received a call from Keke (my colleague) & he said, "Ronald i have a bad & a good news for you" at first what came to my mind as a good news was my neighbor whom I predicted would put to birth that week but wasn't sure about the bad news as both my neighbor & my dogs life were puzzling my mind. So, I gathered the courage & asked, "K, what is it?" & K replied "Iya Ibeji has given birth" at first I was full of joy not until he paused & said " Ronald, I'm very very sorry, Nellie is dead" I couldn't hold the tears but cried like a baby.
It still seemed to me like a joke until the following day when K sent me pics of Nellie's body in Ginger her best play mate's cage while Ginger was there looking at Nellie helplessly & curiously. Lots of questions running in my head like, what on earth would take away the life of a dog whom I left very active, healthy & vaccines are up to date? and yet the death of Nellie is still unknown up till date. I had no choice but to move on.
I really miss Nellie & her funny moments you know!!! that bitch can rough play for Africa with an empty stomach for three straight days......

But then, I present to you my boy The Future Holder of my kennel Simba The Fearless

You might be right but then, why would they poison her alone

am just guessing maybe a snake bite too, and the other dog was spared

u should have conducted an autopsy.. lol

I'm really sorry for the loss bro at least you have gotten another pet that can make you happy again.
My dog's death brought sadness to me but at the end i was a little happy because of the puppies she left with me anytime i see them,i see my dog in their eyes.
once again i'm happy you now have another friend and companion.
