I am so sorry to have reached a post , and to have read, that Zipper is gone now.

I am new to this site, grieving the loss of two dogs with lymphoma. I feel your pain during this separation. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Zipper is a beautiful dog. Again, I am so sorry that you had to make the final decison (the way you did) months ago. Please accept my sincere condolences. I realize that I am not alone in my pain now.

Why now is the grieving so fresh?

As funny and delightful as Mack is, and I love my Golden Girls so much, I am having one of those episodes of grief over Zipper and Mimi. I guess the loss of Murphy was easier to take for me, but I miss her every day, too.

Darn it...........What a darling, precious boy he was. I want him back........

I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes when I think about Angie I smile and sometimes I ball my eyes out. She's been gone over 3 years and sometimes it feels like it just happened. Hang in there. Soon the grieving will be less and less. Then the times when you think about Zipper and smile will be more and more.

Why? What a question. It seems that no reason at all can make a day a particularly bad day. And, another day, an okay one. The wound is so fresh, Logan. And, I can only hope that more time will bring back happier memories, and while I want to say one day it will be only with fondness, I am not sure that is true. Maybe the pain today is to serve some greater purpose. Hugs to you.

Well, Logan, I had the same problem with the loss of my Shiloh. I did not want a new dog....ever again..... I just wanted Shiloh back. Maybe because I lost her so unexpectedly and I counted on her to be with me longer.

Some days are harder. Of course, you love the others...but they are all different. Go give the others a big hug. It will help. And if you need to cry a little.....their fur absorbs tears, too. Zipper and Mimi are watching over you and waiting...
Big hugs to you.
