My dog :( May 25, 2012 0:35:49 GMT -5

I know I don't post much, and I'm not sure what I'm even looking for by posting this.

I came home today and opened the house and immediately smelled poop. I ran in and my dog was laying on the floor and had pooped all over the house. At first, I thought he was just very sick and weak, but it dawned on me pretty quickly that he was dead. He was so still and stiff, but looked peaceful. I don't know what happened to him.

My husband is out of town. I had just told him two weeks ago that one of my biggest fears with him traveling is that I would have to deal with our dogs dying by myself.

Thankfully, I had a friend come help me and he took my sweet boy to be cremated. I couldn't have done it alone.

I feel so numb. I feel like my heart won't ever be full again. He was only 6, and had only been with us for 4 years. He was perfectly fine when I left the house this morning and has never had any health problems. I wasn't ready to say goodbye. My other dog seems to be in the same boat as me. We miss our buddy. I hope he knows how much I love him, I wish so badly I could have told him how much he meant to me.

Thanks for letting me talk about him.

I hate that dogs don't live as long as we do. I hate that I can't make myself believe that I'll see him again someday. He is gone. Forever. I hate how final it is.

I lurk on your boards and now I'm lurking and crying.

I am so sorry.

That is one of my biggest fears; that I will leave and come back and something bad will have happened to my dog.

Like PP said; I'm sure you gave your dog the best life possible.

Hugs to you!
