Pain in the loss of a loved one. Our dogs are dear to us, both the ones still with us and the ones who have passed.
Maybe when you have grieved and the pain has dulled a bit, you would consider someone who has a few new ones to love? I have no idea what his plans are, but starting out a new pup is always a joy.
