I know this doesn't have anything to do with drugs but it does have to do with my life. I had to put my dog Sami down today. She was 15 years old, very weak...couldn't use her hind legs anymore, and had lost her dignity. I had to carry her outside to do her business and she wieghed over 70 lbs. so it wasn't easy...but I was happy to do it for her. She was such a sensitive, gentle, loving dog. I'm so happy for all the love and good times we gave each other...but I'm so lonely without her. I really loved that dog.
The house seems empty without her. We had a good last day together and I think she was glad I was doing it. She probably was just hanging on for my sake. I know she was just a dog...so many people on this site have lost a human loved one and that is so hard....but she was part of our family...so she was loved just as much. I know this will be hard on my son, Jason, because he loved her so much and he's far away in California and couldn't be with Sami at the end. My daughter went with us and the two of just sobbed and sobbed. It's amazing how draining this all has been...we're both tired and now have to face tomorrow without our girl.
So, I'm sad right now and feeling the love I have for a good, good friend.
Bye, bye Sami girl.

I am so sorry for your loss of Sami. She may have been "just" a dog to some, but she was family to you. I am praying for your pain.

I know a lot of people do not understand, but I truly do. It is like losing a part of yourself. I have gone through this too with a 15 yo adorable cocker who was part of my family. It took me ten years to be able to get another puppy, now it has been two years and I already worry about when the time comes. My heart does go out to you.

Sami was a family member, just like anyone else in the family. You will grieve for her, and you should, it is how we process the loss, and it is healthy. Hugs and prayers to you.
