Yeah, Duracell. I know that pain. I grew up with a dog as a second younger brother and the three of us ran around the desert for years and years growing up together.
He had to be put down while I was in Canada, and it ruined me not being there for him at the end. I know being there would have ruined me as well, but I feel like he probably felt like I abandoned him towards the end. Ugh, it’s hard to think about today even.
I could never have another pet. Never.
I’m sorry for your loss, but she had a really nice life as part of your family.
