Abigail was my 1st schipperke, She was taken from this world to rainbow bridge much before her time. She was only six yrs old. I had to go to NY state to attend my x mother in laws funeral. I left Abby in the care of my boy friend, a very neglectful person. He got drunk, tied my schipperke's out and passed out. Abigail slipped her harnass and was killed by a car. She was the dog my daughter picked out, I couldn't face my daughter in fear of her asking about Abigail. I had to wait several weeks before I told her what happened, she couldn 't have taken the news of Abby when she just lost her grammy.. I will not ever forget or lose the pain of the loss of this very special little girl. Til we meet at rainbow bridge. Abby you are always in my heart..
