It will be very hard for any of you to be impartial enough to talk to that woman right now. I can understand that. She needs someone to buy her a coffee, and then sit down for an involved talk with her. Someone who is capable of getting the serious message across, has the energy for it, and can try to get through to her that she cannot carry on as before.
A dog has been killed. That is deeply serious.
A better idea than a dog trainer, they BOTH need the services of a canine behaviourist. Dogs take their cue often from us. The woman herself is needing training too. I am not implying that that woman would have wished such a tragedy to happen -of course she didn't -but something that she is doing or not doing, is allowing her dog to run way out of her control.
It is so loving of that person to just ride down in their car to be with Paul and comfort him. His heart must feel so broken right now.
People do rally round when a tragedy happens.
But there is nothing quite like actually finding out about how they are 'on the other side'. I, (thanks to Misty's ingenuity!) -and many others, have been lucky enough to discover that -and while it doesn't stop us missing them very much, it can help healing.
