Tragedy!
Her dog was missing!
Yesterday, we had a small search party for a missing dog. Sheila’s friends are out and about searching for her ‘therapy dog, Snappy.
Her chihuahua, the pet dog, has been missing since early morning.
The search was not successful. So we comforted Sheila & we promised to search the following day again. I am Sheila’s best friend, and I know she suffers from anxiety & takes medication. In addition, she has therapy sessions for her anger issues. Therapy has helped her symptoms.
During the night, around 11 pm, David, Sheila’s husband, called & asked to come to my house for advice. He says Sheila cannot sleep since her dog is gone.
The chihuahua usually sleeps between them and is very possessive of Sheila. It is so bad that it has affected their marital relationship. He shows me scars & two healing wounds of dog bites on his arms & hand. The dog bites him when he tries to embrace his wife, & Sheila responds by saying, “bad dog! stop that!” He says the dog obeys her, but the dog hates him.
He confessed. When Sheila was in the shower that morning at 6 am. He led the dog outside to pee & poop & then he struck the pet a severe blow with a shovel, killing it. Wow! I was in shock! I held my breath!
