My heart goes out to you, having been there a few times.
I always end up getting another dog though.
I never learn, it seems.
i’m with you and SG, heartbreaking as it is to lose them, dogs are the essence of life IMO. One of xshub’s employees lost her cav the night before last to mitral valve disease. i just sent her a sympathy email, having gone through it just under 2 years ago ourselves. xshub told her to look for signs of grief in the remaining dog, bc of our experience with Chanel’s KEENING wail after Lucius died. I told him last night to get prepared for the idea of three cavs at once for a period of time, bc at the point Chanel starts having problems we are going to have to get a third bc my bawl-baby insecure Jules cannot possibly be an only dog. He ADORES Chanel, and i don’t even want to contemplate him without her around.
