I'm so sorry for your loss. I have often experienced that pain.
I have had so very many dogs in my life - almost all of them were rescues and a lot of times it broke my heart hearing their stories. Sometimes I would just get angry at the stupidity of their previous owners. Their loss was always my gain. It was so rewarding watching them come out of their shells and settle into a comfy living with us. Sometimes that bond is stronger than one you would develop with a new puppy.
I wish the best for you and hope you can come to remember your little one without sorrow as you heal and learn to love another. |
