Loss of pet

One more thing.. I gave my daughter a puppy of Shandies that was over 2 years ago. He dog had puppies 6 weeks ago.. One looks like shandy 100% she has given her to me. WOW I still have mini me Shandy......

My heart goes out to you. My own Dog, Pokey, passed away in April this year, and I still miss her terribly. They have their own personalities. No other Dog will ever be the same. Enjoy your memories of having known this great friend in your life.

They are just like a piece of the family, so a loss is a loss. You just need time to get over it, and move on. Maybe find a New puppy to replace it or something?

I'm sorry for your loss. I wish I could say it will be easier soon..but I'm not so sure. I lost my best friend of 18 yrs almost 3 years ago. I still cry about him every once in awhile. Not as bad as it was before, but I still choke up when I think of him. He was just an awesome dog.

I am sorry to hear of your loss, brendalee. I think they are part of our family and we talk to them everyday like a person. Hope your pain easys for you. Remember the fond memories. Take care.

so sad no its not wrong

I lost my Golden cocker spaniel seven years ago, My son bought me a puppy Dalmation she is so sweet. I lost jenny in the october and rizzla came along in november. I still cry about my first dog,It takes years to get over the deep hurt.

I am so sorry for your loss. yes, it will take you some time to stop grieveing. our pets are our family members. it`s as hard on us as losing a human life. I feel so sad for you. take care. hugs.

I see you posted this 3 weeks ago. I'm sorry for your loss. Everyone is different. I have had many pets over the years. I am a big animal lover. However, I have noticed that I grieve over some more than others. I actually still grieve and cry for a cat that I had for 17 1/2 years. It's been 14 years since his passing. Your feelings are not right or wrong, they are just emotional feelings. You will grieve as long as it takes for the pain to dull. It's just like loosing a family member, it hurts the same. I waited 5 years until I got another cat. But, I never could bond to it, as I felt guilty to the one I loved so much. Well, resently we adopted another kitty, and it's wonderful. But, there are times, I still miss that one special one. Good luck and God bless you. Go at your own pase, and don't let people confuse how you feel.

You can't tell anybody else how to grieve but I think that one year is more for a relative, but if you were very close to your pet it could take that long.

My aunt had to put her dog to sleep 3 months ago, we all went through the pain of losing Ivy. My son till this day still cries for her. :(
