Hello, I am incredibly sorry to hear about Tazi. After an extreme stressful event like this the most important thing is to create a calm and consistent environment for recovery. If possible try to stay home with Tazi and provide her with love and affection. If she enjoys playing you could spend additional time playing with her and socializing her. Hopefully as time from this stressful event passes Tazi will relax more and realize that overall nothing has changed in her environment. Hope this helps, good luck!
