And you have the right to have those feelings for as long as it takes. This is one of the parts of connecting ourselves to other living beings, whether they be other people or our pets. There can be wonderful moments of joy, happiness, and satisfaction, and then there are the times where everything seems to fall apart and our hopes and dreams are dashed. It takes time to come to terms with hurt, disappointment, and sadness and it takes time to find our way through all that and come to another path.<br /><br />I am sad to hear that Tate is aging more quickly now. He is the sweetest dog. I had a dream about him a couple of nights ago--I was giving him a bath in my bath tub in the bathroom! He was a perfect boy! Lavish all the love and time on him that you can so you will never regret not doing so. It's a lot like caring for aged parents--I will never have regrets that I didn't do more for my mom or spend more time with her. I gave up a lot and put my life on hold in many ways, but I would do it again.<br /><br />XOXOXODianne SShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02898741341490904783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308432820597369862.post-21806361960267841422013-08-07T22:27:12.707-06:002013-08-07T22:27:12.707-06:00well you two made me cry! waaaaaaa!

You have every rig...You grieve all you want Jolene. You have every right to and no one can tell you how you should feel. I have to agree with everything MuddyPaws said, as when you do post on somewhere like FB (and I think it's WAY worse than our blogs) people say stuff we maybe don't want to hear or don't agree with. There is nothing fun about losing a 5 year old dog's career when he looks fine. It sucks and then to have Tate age quickly, that is really hard too. Things are tough for you now and you will figure it out. The puppy will be exciting but if it's not now, don't beat yourself up. I always get a little sad when I have a litter, because it always changes things and relationships with my other dogs, so I get what you are talking about. Be kind to yourself and if you are sad, or mad or incredibly depressed, you have every right to be. Ok??? I love you. And I love Kort. And Tate. And Perkins (or, and Brad) and your mom.....and your new puppy in the belly!!!

You have a right to be upset and sad. Until it has happened to you, you have no idea how it feels. And no one can tell you how to feel or not to feel. <br /><br />That said you are right in that you opened yourself up for comments by posting on social media. People are entitled to their opinions and don't often think about how it may come across. Often they think they are being helpful.... <br /><br />So take what people say with a grain of salt. Think less about that. And more about what you need in order to move forward. I know from experience that it is pretty devastating and will take some time to process. <br /><br />And yes. Tate is aging. Quickly. And it is sad. Its sucky that they get old so fast. But now that you see that you can really start enjoying him more in his old dog ways. Cherish each moment and build up even more memories because you are going to need them later. <br /><br />I'm always here for you Jo.manymuddypawshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16354727142892111081noreply@blogger.com
