thats EXACTLY how i feel!!! i don't want to go home because that's where it's "Reality". when i'm away at school, it's not something that occupies my mind, but when i'm at home... it's real

I'm really sorry, I know what it's like. I had my cat for 16 years and when he passed away it was horrible.
Some people might diagree but I think it is a good idea to go and adopt another animal. Instead of focusing so much energy on being sad, I think it is good to focus that energy on giving another animal love.
You can't replace your pup but you can give another pup a good life.
Hang in there

I am so sorry to here about your dog. I am a huge dog person so I feel your pain. I had a couple of dogs when I was growing up and when they passed away it took me for ever to get over the pain. Take it one day at a time. I have a cat now that I love but she will never take place for the dogs that I have lost

it takes time to get used to. i usually go home a lot so i'm getting used to not having her there, but still, it really sucks

just think that they're in a better place now. my father passed away from pancreatic cancer last october (four days after my birthday...) and that's really hard...i think about him and i miss him every single day. my father loved my dog, too, so i just think that they're together somewhere in the afterlife

I am so sorry to hear about your dog. I have a 14 year old Golden and cannot bear thinking of life without her. I will be thinking and praying for you and Dr Watson.

BIG HUGS and all my best wishes during this time in your life. I love my 10 yr old JR terrier more than anything in this world and I can understand your grief. Hang in there babe

((((HUGS!!))))

It is so true that our little furry friends touch our souls in ways that nothing else on earth can--you can see it in their eyes. I wish the best for you, and give my deepest condolences.
