Sadly, every dog lover has been right where you are. And I don't just mean dog owner, I mean dog lover - the person who has the same type of special relationship with their dog that you had with your dear Bubbies. Losing one of the most important parts of life hurts and hurts for a long, long time and true grief is perfectly normal after that kind of loss. You never really get over those special relationships, you only gradually learn to live with the loss, noticing that slowly the pain turns to only good memories and the real hope that somehow we'll love like that again and one day see all our babies happy and well at the Rainbow Bridge. They live daily in our hearts and memories and true love never dies. Bubbies and Kobe will be forever loved. Hugs to you.
