How to cope?
I pride myself on being a strong person but am having a horrible time coping with putting my beloved dog to sleep. She was bleeding alot from her nose with a suspected tumor and suffering from cushings disease. I did the right thing for her but am really suffering without her. I am a single Mom with two great young boys and the whole family hasn't been quite the same. She was my friend and companion as well as the kids. We only had her for less than two years. She was a rescue dog who had a rough past but was the most gentle dog, loving 20-30 kindergarteners rubbing her belly. She would have made the best therapy dog. I put her down June 29th. It seems like yesterday. I am sorry to go on about her so much but am hoping people here can lend some support and understand. I feel as though I have lost a child. I am starting to look for another dog but am not sure how soon to start again.
Thanks for listening...Miss Ami
