I am so sorry for your loss. I understand your need to write about your little Smokey in a place that others feel the depth of your pain. I recently lost my dear Sadie on the 3rd day after she gave me 5 beautiful puppies. I had not been to Yorkietalk for quite some time, but knew this was a place with people who could really understand what it means to lose one of these precious Yorkie friends. I knew too, that a wealth of experience and knowledge was here for the asking. It provides solace to read the responses of so many that genuinely share in your grief and wish you peace and comfort. Know that you are not alone and we all would love to hear some of your memories of Smokey when you are ready to share them.
As to another dog. Take time to grieve Smokey but yes, I think there is another puppy out there that needs your loving attention ... when you feel it's time.
Take care of yourself and try to hold on to the fact that you and Smokey had so much joy from one another in the time you had together. So many never know that bond. |
