I am so so sorry for the loss of your sweet boy. It is never easy to say goodbye to them. I lost 2 older dogs just a few short months ago. Both to cancer. Jasmine my lab and Bisquit my chow mix. Both were a huge part of my family. I miss them and they will always be in my heart. What helped me was going to my local SPCA and seeing all the poor homeless animals there. I knew my babies had a good life. They were happy and loved. But somehow going to the SPCA opened my eyes. Yes I was blessed to have had them but they were blessed too. I remember driving there that day in such a fog. I had no intentions of bringing home another animal as I still had 7 of my own. I didn't even know the reason why I was going. My heart was so heavy. I was so sad. It didn't make sense. I never even spoke to anyone there. I just loved on some of the dogs and left. It was almost like an outer body experience. It's hard to describe but that day after my visit I felt a peace and calm. I knew I had done everything I could for my babies and I knew I had to get home to my other 7 that were waiting for me. You were a good mom. You provided for and loved your baby for the short time you had him. You may not have all the answers but they probably wouldn't change how you feel. I hope you find peace in knowing that your baby lived a happy life. There are so many out there that don't. So many out there that never feel the love that you gave your baby. I personally thank you for that!
