Condolences
I know how you are feeling. At some time or another all pet lovers go through it and it is never easy.

I had to jump in here and tell you how sorry I am and how I feel your pain, I mean I "really feel what your feeling" Lost my sheepdog about 1 year ago to stomach cancer, chemo didn't work and I held my guy and whispered in his ear how much I loved him, until he was gone. Ripped me up inside, still does when I think about him.

But this is about you, and your pain, the only thing I can say is let yourself grieve, get it out, and then remember all the funny, and cool things and times you had with him all those years, and keep him in your heart forever. I really hope you feel better soon.

These 2 cuties also helped us to find peace, and some "smiles" again, when we lost our boy!

thank you all for your kind words..i still can't stop thinking about him,its been 3 days sooo far,but it still seems like just yesterday..he was one of the happiest and friendliest dogs..one of my neighbors even cried for him since everyone loved him soo much..i know this is going to take awhile to get over..its even kinda depressing to see my other dogs or any dogs now..and i feel like im not taking as good of care of my chameleon as i was,but he is doing fine though..hes eatting,drinking,and moving around alot like always..its just soo sad to look at the spot where he was when he got put to sleep in my house and anywhere else he really liked to go..well thanks again,hopefully hes happy now where ever he is and running again..he loved to run..

He's just worried about you now, so hang in there .

What your feeling is perfectly normal, I found it hard to try and get into anything (completely) I felt like my guts had been ripped out, and was not functioning normally. Just the thought of him brought more tears. year and half later if my husband and I talk about Grizzly I still break down. Anyone who has ever lost a dogie they loved so very much, feels the same way, it's a heck of a lose.

Hang in there and if you want to talk .... we will listen.
