I dont know if this is the right section or not but this is where I am sticking it. This is long but wanted to explain everything.
On Friday, I had to let my 13yr Pom/Chi mix, Charlie, go to his final resting place. Since then Sam (my Yorkie) and Martin (my poodle) have been depressed.
They are not really eating, they drink some, no playing and just kind of lay around.
Sam ALWAYS goes with me, yesterday he wouldn't come near me when I grabbed the car keys. Same with today. I am afraid that he thinks if he leaves with me that he won't come back
Sam and Martin are both laying with me but that is the extent of it. Yesterday Sam got into Charlie and Martin's crate (all bedding has been emptied and crate cleaned), he just laid there on the plastic lining.
He goes to certain places where Charlie would lay, sniffs, rolls around then just falls out on his tummy there, all sprawled out with his head down.
It is really breaking my heart because I dont know what to do for them.
My nieces are having a hard time. For the first time EVER my baby wouldnt spend the night with me, its just to soon for her. But at least with them, we can talk about it and I can help them grieve.
I dont know how to help Martin and Sam. Does anyone have any do's or don'ts that they can suggest?
