When will I get over my loss? Discussions

We just put our dog down last night. Annie was a 15 yr lab that we had since 8 weeks! My heat is breaking. She was my constant companion thru life. I awoke last night expecting her to lift her head and look at me to only go back to sleep. I walked downstairs this morning hoping to see her in the office, laying or going into the living room and seeing her laying on the mat. The location of her food and water bowl is too much to bare. She had difficulty walking, but the last few days she had taken a turn for the worse. She almost knew it was time. At the vet's office, she didn't get freaked out, she was somewhat calm. When it was time, we placed her on the table. My husband and I held her head, rubbed her and I whispered I love you Annie, always and forever and she drifted asleep. We wanted to bring her hime and lay her to rest in our yard where we live. We prepared the area, placed her on her bed, curled up like she was sleeping. Placed a rubber snake, flowers, bag of notes and poems and covered her with a lovely handmade blanket. We cried, I cried so hard I thought I would loose my breath. I miss you Annie so much!

my mom just gave away my dog a couple weeks ago, she said that she was having babbies and so i believed her. then i kept asking about roxie (my dog) and she said i gave her to the humane society. i was so heartbroken. i still cry myself to sleep. i try not to think about it but i cant.
