A week after my son was declared "as healthy as can be with microtia", I had to put Rubert down. I'm not a spiritual person the least but even I have a hard time not to believe that dog was not put on my path on purpose. 
I'm sorry for all of your losses, it never gets easier but we are lucky to have had that love in our lives. |
Best thing I seen you write, great post.
My suggestion to the op is to go out and get another dog asap. You're probably going to get another anyway, the new puppy will bring new joy and take your mind off some sadness. The only thing is I wold nt get the same breed if possible, just because it may spark too many memories.
Sorry for your loss, good luck.

I've never owned a real pet. To me it's a waste of time and money. Like, what do you expect? Did you think the animal will out live you?
I'd rather invest my time/money on real human (a kid).
I respect pet owners, so i'm not bashing on anyone. I'm just speaking my POV.

Well duh, obviously a real human is a priority but this isn't no where near a one vs the other situation. Kind of a weird post that really has no place in this thread right now. But I bet you feel real good giving your opinion....I never understand how folks that don't like or relate to a subject jump into a thread to post something completely left field.
