I grieve also for my beloved dog Bubby

Bubby at age 10

I had to put my beloved black lab to sleep yesterday. He came to me very early in his too short life at only five weeks old. He lived from July 15, 1997 to March 18, 2008.
I thought I took care of him in the beginning but realized in no time at all that it was the other way around. I am a lone woman whose parent's long ago passed and my two sons have grown up an moved far away so Bubby was my whole world. I hope the picture went on.
I am so distraught that I could not go to work today. This cancer came on him so suddenly I had no time to prepare my heart for the loss, if I could have anyway. I got on line and just started reading stories of other peoples treasured pets like yours. I have been blessed with a couple wonderful dogs in my life, but I do not know if my heart can take this pain this time. I am sorry for your loss as mine. I KNOW God has our beloved pets waiting for us in Heaven or for me it just wouldn't be Heaven and I want to go where Bubby is. God bless you and yours.
