oprah’s doggie heartbreak :(

so sad..these are like her kids…awww

Gigi– you are obviously not a dog lover and a heartless human being

Yeah sad. — but I stopped reading after I got to “I ran out to the dog walker…” Barf. These celebs that can’t change their own kids diapers or walk their own damn dogs….Barf.

Hey GiGi, apparently you either have never had a dog or dont pay a damn bit of attention to your own. Golden Retrievers are very appropriately named. All they want to do is retrieve and if you had one or was even the slightest bit knowledgeable you would know that they are constantly carrying around a ball, toy, stick or something in thier mouth. It could have very easily choked on a ball if it was playing with a ball that was too small or perhaps was laying on its back while holding it with two front paws which I have seen numerous dogs do. Mallinformed people just spewing things out of thier mouth without facts only enhances thier ignorance. Further, that was a very heartless thing to say.

Our Golden, Gaia died last July. It was awful. He was my first dog and I didn’t realize how much it would affect me. My heart ached for so long. I will say a prayer for Oprah. I’m sure Gracie and my Gaia are at Rainbow’s Bridge playing right now.

I worked @ an Animal hospital for years and seen alot of choking accidents. People just remember that when toys become wore down to throw them out.Raw hyde chews are dangerous for all dogs. Also all kinds of bones,chicken or beef bones splinter and can get stuck down dogs throats, FYI…

Cookie, you’re an ignorant bitch and I’m not referring to the the canine species. May you suffer a loss such as this and when you’re blamed for it may you choke yourself on a small object. Tramp!

Hey I have a dog walker and I’m not rich or a celebrity. I just don’t like having my dog wait the eight hours to take a walk. Its ten dollars a day – roughly the equivalent of two drinks at starbucks.

Oprah has earned all the opportunities that are afforded by her vast wealth. Dogwalkers, Poop Scoopers, A Private Vet/Nutritionist, ect., it doesn’t mean she can’t have feelings of sorrow over the loss of a family pet. Simply put, If a burdensome scenario arises and you have unlimited cash flow, who wouldn’t shell out what amounts to “pocket change” it costs to bypass the toughest and nastiest sides of Pet Ownership? Someone has a cool job at Casa Oprah along with many others “I’m sure” that do other basic household Tasks. What is it that prompts jealous anger when people see wealthy individuals share their earnings with others based solely on the fact that they can’t so there’s something wrong. Look, Oprah’s Dog Walker pays taxes and earns a paycheck, he/she buys things from people Oprah will never know and they in turn take Oprah’s” permanent vacation from ever picking up Dog Poop” money and spend it. Guess what? she probably has a maid and groundskeeping staff…. Successful people understand that time is money and having the big dollars it takes to enjoy passing that wealth through the employment and bettering the life of others is what is correctly labeled “Scoreboard” American style. This whole argument that Oprah is detached from the true emotions of loving her pet by missing some “essential elements ” only “Do it all yourself” Dog owners can understand is idiotic at best. The Dog choked on a ball and things like that happen, sadly they just do. Unfortunate accidents are sad but the misguided ignorance of others who have need to spew inane statements only to find fault and point fingers of responsibility at others finding some twisted and convoluted “self importance” in a sad and painfull situation is pathetic at best …..

My heart goes out to Oprah. I lost my beloved Mandy a year ago and it still hurts. They are part of the family. I now have a new baby who’s name is Sadie. She doesn’t like balls but plays with toys and chews on raw hide bones. I let her do this when I am away because she would be very lonley and bored while I am gone if not for these comforts. Accidents do happen and I pray that it won’t happen to her but its just like having kids, you can not watch them every minute and have to let them experience things to grow up. You pay to have your kids watched by a baby setter so what is so different having a dog walker. These people making those negitive comments are just plain stupid or heartless or have never had a pet or children. You shouldn’t put down things you have no experience with. Again my heart goes out to Oprah. you never really get over the loss of a loved one but you do go on. And I agree they do teach us many valuable lessons. Its a shame but it’s people like Gi Gi and Cookie that make it necessary to have animal shelters.

Have a heart, you soulless monster.

Do you think Oprah would like to have an embroidery of her dogs?
I am 80 years old and my hobby is to embroider by hand photos.
If you send me a photo I will embroidery by hand, I can send it to you and you can forwarded to Oprah.
Thanks
Leonor

I am not heartless. My sympathies go out to those who actully CARED for the dog!!! Those who played with it, groomed it, fed it, cared for it, walked it. THEY are the ones who lost a loved one…..not Oprah
