I am so sorry for your loss. I lost two of my dogs last year. I adopted both of them when they were puppies almost 14 years ago. When the older of the two dogs (just older by six months) died, the other followed a few months after. The pain still crushes my heart to this day and even though I know they had a good life with me but I still cry and miss them so much. And yes, time passing does help make the pain more tolerable. I wish the best for you.
I wanted to say how refreshing it was to read your comment. Thank you for being such a thoughtful person.....for reaching out, despite your own struggles and pain, to encourage another person during their difficult time.
Thank you, I appreciate it, He was 15 and lived a good life but it’s never easy letting go. I’m so sorry for your loss dealing with losing one is painful, I can’t imagine having to say goodbye to two so close, they really do become family. No matter the struggle it helps to let people know they are not alone.

Caly, I know it feels difficult now but it does get better and time really does heal. I’m dealing with my own personal hardship of losing a pet, stay strong.
