conv: While I was in college my dog ran away back home and was never found.  My mother had been taking her on a walk in a park and my dog fell down a cliff.  I dreamed about her every night for a month at school_comma_ and hoped I'd get a call saying she was found_comma_ but she never was. My dog disappeared while I was away at college. That's so sad_comma_ I'm so sorry you had to go through that. How did it happen? My mother was walking her in a park and the dog fell down a cliff.  She was never found or recovered. My goodness_comma_ that sounds like a tragedy. I'm sure she was a great dog friend of yours. Yes_comma_ I loved her a lot.  It took a long time to get over but it was quite a long time ago at this point.
