The right time is different for differnt people, but I also think that if you have loved one dog so deeply it is likely that you will love the next one too. So why wait? Take a risk, and open your heart to all the love, joy, and fun a new furbaby can bring.
I lost my Sachi last April, and immediately put a deposit on Tiki but had to wait another 6 weeks to get her. I cried daily, and wondered if I'd ever get over the loss. But, having another little furbaby to hug and love, and who was so dependent on me, quickly turned my focus to the joy. It also helped me shift to remembering the happy times with Sachi in a new light. |
