I am so sorry to hear about your little Italian, I can only imagine the pain you felt and have probably felt from that. I have only ever lost family dogs and while they hurt, they were my parents' dogs. Thank you for your message though, I definitely know that I am holding her back from having fun because I am scared of what could happen to her.

Thank you. I agree that having someone hovering over us is not enjoyable. I boot my husband out of the kitchen when I am in there trying to cook! I just wish I could trust that she is okay. I have this fear that we have missed something. We lost our youngest cat back in February from an undetected heart condition. One minute she was playing and 10 mins later she had passed away...I think this played a huge part in my fear of the unknown with her. I know we have run a lot of tests, but I am always afraid we missed a test or something. I just want her to be happy though, so I am going to definitely try and give her a little more breathing room and try to just enjoy her. We just played a little bit after she picked at her new food (we are trying duck this time around and doesn't seem impressed!)

I am so beyond sorry about your husband, cancer is horrible. The aunt that was diagnosed after my mom is now in palliative care after having a severe stroke and they had to stop the chemo that was keeping her relatively stable.
We have tried other foods she shouldn't have but then we have to deal with major gas and upset tummy. We got a sample of a duck based kibble today to see how she does on that, but so far she seems to not enjoy it either.
To be honest, I never really thought of the stress of moving around and her losing people she loved. Not only did my mom pass away but we lived with my in-laws for 2 years and my dad for a year and she hung around them a lot and she had their dogs to hang around. She hates other dogs, other than the 2 at my in-laws and my dad's 2, so maybe she has just been lonely since moving away from the other people and dogs. We have been here now for a year but she rarely comes anywhere anymore with us.
I will keep you and your husband in my thoughts.
