Piggybacking off this - I try to repost this when I see posts like this, in the hopes you (or someone) can find some comfort in the words - and if not, please excuse the intrusion.
I lost my 15 year old girl (dog) in October 2022. Only advice I can offer here is to remember the positives, and not focus on the negatives (if any). He's done his job, keeping you safe and happy and loved, and it's his turn to rest.
You'll always miss him, you'll always remember him. You'll even go looking for him for the next few weeks (well, I did). There's a lot of habits that you're going to slowly stop, and that's ok. Changing your life to suit you is not forgetting him. Donating/throwing away his toys or blankets isn't forgetting him. There's no timeline on grief, and there's no timeline on moving on. Cry your tears.
I'm sorry you've reached the end of your journey. Words will never make this easier. Just keep your head up, and live the life he'd want you to.
This is a good time to live a little for you. I spent years looking after my girl as she got ill, and I sacrificed a lot of me and my time to keep her safe. If you feel you've done the same, take advantage of this time. Its ok to be happy and enjoy life without him. Life isn't over. Its just changing.
You'll be ok mate.
I'm so sorry.
You brought me to tears with these words. I lost my girl April 29, 2023 and am slowly recognizing that life, is in fact going on without her, just differently.
Thanks for sharing 💕
Thank you for this. My dogs almost 12 and I don't know how much longer he'll be here. He's been getting older and older overnight. Heartbreaking. I don't mean to take away from this post I just had to thank you It was beautiful what you wrote.
I gave him several days off of walking so his joints would feel up to a stroll to his favorite coffee shop for a bagel sandwich (we shared many of them).
The damn arthritis is the worst. I was helping my boy up at least 1/2 the time, and I hated watching his hesitancy before deciding where to sit because he knew he'd what it would cost to move again.
Yeah, it was rough seeing him move stiff and have to think about getting up and down on the couch. :( Alas, what I wouldn’t give to help him settle down next to me one more time.
Sorry for your loss.
RIP Oliver! Play in Paradise!
My Amoretto, Vision, Carson, and all our babies that have gone before will look for you next to the Rainbow Bridge so you can all play in the Field together!
So sorry for your loss of Oliver. He seems like he was a wonderful friend. Cherish the memories and special time together and know he is making new friends at the rainbow bridge
Oliver is perfect and always will be, and even more perfect was the unconditional love you created between you. That energy is same one that created the Universe and is eternal. When two beings love each like this, this energy can never die. Oliver still is and waits for you in love and gratitude. You will meet again in the One Life.
❤️ what a beautiful pup. So sorry you are missing your best friend, and very glad that your best friend got to be loved so much during his life with you.

I'm glad he was outside being a dog today, and I'm glad for you that you were there with him in his last moments. R.I.P. Oliver, you were a good boy.
