It's something we all share isn't it? It's been almost four years since I lost my Watson, and the thought of being in that vet's office can send me off even today reading your post. Being folks who love our pets, that loss softens but never goes away, they stay in our hearts when they are stumbly little ones and a bit of us goes with them when they leave.
While I have Dylan, she doesn't replace Watson's goofyness and sloppy kisses, it's just still the delight to have HER kisses now. We're all a bit better for having loved the way we do, and maybe I just hope our beloved pets are a bit better for having been loved by us.
