I'm so sorry you are still hurting so much. My MIL lost her standard poodle, SnowBear, to cancer when he was only about 3 or 4. She and my dad got a beautiful Samoyed from the shelter named SnowBall. They changed it to SnowBear because they missed the first one so much. It seemed perfectly natural. I see nothing wrong with honoring your little lost soul by renaming your baby after him. If it makes you feel closer, then do it. Sleep peacefully, little one. |
