[matese]

I am so sorry for your loss of your little Molly. I had to put my lil girl down this past Oct. The pain in my heart was over whelming, she was 16 y/o. I have had to put down 3 other babies before her, it doesn't get easier. After having to put down my last one, I said no more dogs for me, I just cannot take the pain when it's their time to go to rainbow bridge. For 6 weeks I cried & cried. The house felt so empty, I felt so alone, I made a little memorial of her, her pictures, 2 t-shirts and her favorite toy. Then my vet called me, she just received a 2 y/o male yorkie, he came in as a surrender, not an abused dog, She said he reminded her of my Matese, she said "this is your dog, come and see him" I told her I didn't want any more dogs, especially a male because of their marking, all my babies were females. She said he was neutered, some neutered dogs will not mark, some will, she was just begging me to "just come in and see him" out of respect for my vet and her thinking of me, also knowing I was safe to "just see this dog" because I knew I would NEVER get a male dog, I went to see him, he is living with me 4 months now. He has filled my heart with love again, made my house a home again, he is my sunshine on cloudy days. He rescued me. He nor any dog can ever replace my Matese, he is a very special lil boy and my first boy and he does NOT mark. Everyone handles the loss of a loved pet in different ways, I needed this boy more then he needed me. Time will heal your pain, and I know the pain is deep. I will keep you & your partner in my prayers to help ease the pain you are both in.
