BringMetheHeadofLeonLett Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago ... and to add insult, my GF's mom's dog we inherited, an 8 pound Papillon- who's also 12, is almost certainly going to be yapping away for at least another 6-8 years haha I very much hated that dog at her mom's house, but to her credit she's really done surprisingly great with us... I even occasionally love the stupid thing... 1 Quote
TBBills Fan Posted 1 hour ago Author Posted 1 hour ago I feel like today, while I'm still hurting and thinking of her, I'm not so overwhelmed with grief. I'm sad and miss her, I'm also looking at her pic and smiling about how great she was. I'm guessing this is going to come in waves with how I feel. I think I've gotten all the tears out. Friday, Saturday, Sunday and yesterday I cried more than I have in a long long long time. 1 Quote

Friday, Saturday, Sunday and yesterday I cried more than I have in a long long long time. We went through the same situation Aug,2024. Augustus (Gus) our Basset Hound was 11 years old. It was one of the most difficult decisions we ever had to make. The sadness is difficult and definitely comes in waves. Just remember the good times you had with her and she had with you. They're only here for a short time. Which reminds me of a poem.... "People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life — like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right? Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay for as long as we do" It gets easier but sometimes for no reason out of the blue you'll think of her. Just smile and be glad she was in your life. Hell, I just teared up last week thinking about Gus. Not sure if you've ever read the Rainbow Bridge Poem.. https://vet.uga.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/The-Rainbow-Bridge-Poem-Hand-Out.pdf Quote
