A new chapter in my life. Losing my 12.5yr old soul dog wrecked me emotionally. It’s been 5 weeks and I miss him so much. In his memory I am going to adopt a senior dog from a local rescue. One day, I hope to get another puppy but right now, giving a senior dog a best life possible is what I am going to do. I posted a week ago of the pain I was feeling and the loneliness without him. I want to say thank you for all those who commented on my previous post.

I am in my fifties and lost my 12 year old dog last month. After spending over 7k in vet bills I realize I can no longer have a dog. I have a good job but live alone, I feel at this age I can’t afford a dog anymore and it makes me sad. I feel alone without my best friend but it’s so expensive now. Sorry had to let it out because it’s been killing me keeping it in.

Hi guys, my soul dog died about a month ago. I took it hard for the first two weeks. 3rd week was better. I was offered a puppy so i prepped the house all week and headed out yesterday to get him. On my way there memories of my dog started to flash in my head and the pain of losing him came back. Harder than when he died. Cancelled the puppy adoption and been depressed ever since. I live alone so the silence in the house is killing me. How can I deal with this? Any advice would be appreicated
