I Miss My Dog Today

[Anonymous]

Sorry OP- hugs to you, the loss of a beloved pet is so hard. Trying to remember the good things and the life they lived is helpful but still tough when the wound is so fresh.

Our dog passed suddenly in February and I miss her all the time - and we still have another dog. He's bigger and she was small and cuddly so I miss having her in my arms. The kids talk about her all the time and I just have these pangs where I can't believe she's gone... it's so hard. I feel for you, OP. If we didn't have our other dog we would have probably gotten a new dog by now. They certainly don't replace your old dog but it does help fill the space in your house that's empty.

Sorry, OP. I feel for you.

I know what it's like - have been missing my two beloved cats lately - so, so much.

OP here. Thanks everyone. I hesitated to put my feelings out there but am glad I did. I feel a little bit better. Hugs to all of you who are almost missing your beloved friends today.

I am 30 and still get wistful thinking about my childhood dog we had from when I was about 8 to 20. He was approx a 3 year old dog with heart-worms when we got him, but he bounced back and lived a full life.

I was an only child who moved around a lot, and I really bonded with this dog. It's definitely a real loss and you're only one month out.

And getting another dog will never replace your old dog, but furry snuggles of help you feel better!
