Ditto all the sentiments here.
Can relate, had to put down our sweet (rescue) girl, Freeway, due to a tumor on her colon. Cried for days.
A new friend is in order, all in due time, and many are out there in shelters or roaming the streets waiting to love and be loved. Seems that rescue dogs make the best friends - they appreciate that warm bed, a meal and playing ball or going for walks. Took me 2 years to get over the last loss, didn't want the pain of another loss, but here's a very happy heeler we saved that was scheduled to be put down because she chased a farm lady's chickens.
Patty's happy hour:
Best,
Mark
