Catholic Prayer Request for a broken heart

My best friend was a miniature schnauzer named Shorty. Shorty loved me, loved to be in the company of people and also loved to run.

Last night I took him to the park so that he could run and enjoy himself. A horrible tragedy happened. My very best friend ran where he had never gone before and stepped off the curb to turn around as I called for him to return to me. My loving companion was struck by a speeding car and died a very violent death.

I blame myself for allowing him off his leash, and I miss him so. I keep seeing his final moments over and over, I can't get them out of my head. I truly loved that little guy and my heart is broken because of my foolishness.

This is my Catholic Prayer Request:

Please take a moment and say a little prayer for my wonderful little friend. I will miss him forever.
