I was looking back at what I wrote when I first shared what happened to Charlie and I feel bad for saying I didn't want that other dog to live. I was very angry, and was trying to be honest, but I regret saying that. It's the owners fault really. I have a question. How long should we wait to get another puppy? We all miss Charlie so much and know their will never be another one like him. My family and I want to get another puppy, but I don't know when we will be ready. I have read that people should wait a few months or longer before getting another pet after losing one. That waiting until you are no longer grieving is the thing to do. Then again, I've also read about people getting puppies as early as a week after, and that the new puppy helped them through the tough time. I don't see us waiting several months or even years to get another one. I also don't want to do the wrong thing in getting a pet before we are ready. How do you know when the time is right? When is the right time for that matter? I don't want to do the wrong thing. |
