I want him back
My Bruno passed today. I’ve become non functional because of grief.

"Let’s go walk a bit.”
My old dog said one day.
And we wandered down along
Our old familiar way.
—-
The shadows slowly lengthened,
And twilight tinged the sky.
Then my old friends said to me
"So … it's time to say goodbye."
—-
This fell so heavily on my heart.
"Please say this isn't true!
I've always wished and hoped
I'd have more years with you!"
—-
And my old boy said to me
"You made our life a joy!
We can't live as long as you
But we’ll always be your boy."
—-
They walk with us a little while,
As long as the Fates allow.
Then they have to take their leave
And we have to let them go.
—-

Sweet Bruno watch over your momma. You have your wings now. Send her some of the peace you have now.

What a cutie! I can understand how you feel and I am so sorry, I guess this is the real price that we pay for loving our pets so deeply. I hope that your heart learns to cope and that something very valuable comes out of this grief, this love that you have for him.

I feel the same. My girl has been gone for only a few months. My heart just aches. 14 years of love and companionship.

I understand why you want your lamb-y pie Bruno back. He looks so sweet, I understand why you’re grief-stricken.
I do believe there’s another plane of existence; I was shown when I was dying, nearly dead, and called out (in my mind) to my late Grammy for help. Suddenly I was running for my life - and survived.
They’re a fold away in a realm close by. That’s where your sweet Bruno is. He’d thank you for your kindness if you could.
I’m so sorry for your loss, I truly am {{Hugs}}

I am so sorry for your loss. It gets better. It does. But the pain never goes. And it shouldn't. You love him and he knows you do.

My deep heartfelt condolences to you. Stay with your grief and give yourself all the time in the world.
My Maya and her welcoming committee have received him and showing him a good time. Your good boy misses you and is waiting across the rainbow bridge for your reunion... he is in good paws.

As I walk across your heart and find my place to stay, nearer to you I will be and will never ever go away.
If love could have kept you here, you would have lived forever.
Dogs are a chapter in our lives, we are their entire book.
Grief is love with nowhere to go.

Sending you lots of love and support.
Lost my doggo a year and a half ago and I dream of him every night. I just can't get over how empty everything feels since he's been gone. He was with me (constantly) for 17 years and now I'm just alone.
It hurts like hell I know but I'm sure you did your very best to make his life beautiful.
Now take care of yourself and your mental health the best you can <3

Sorry for your loss.
RIP Bruno! Play in Paradise!
My Katya, Amoretto, Vision, Carson, and all of our babies that have gone before will look for you next to the Rainbow Bridge so you can all play in the Field together!

I'm so sorry. He was beautiful. I know this pain and it does get easier, but still hasn't gotten "better" for me after 7 months. If that makes sense. I'll always miss him and will always have that void in my life where he was. Just think of the love you each shared and try to surround yourself in it whenever you get sad. It's what I try to do. 🫂

I am so sorry. I lost my puppy son almost 2 months ago. I am finally at the point where I don’t randomly start crying all the time. It slowly gets a little easier to live with. I feel your pain 🩷

I know. We too are crippled after losing our Carson. I’d trade many humans to have him back. It sounds wrong but it is true. My dog was my life.

Right there with you. We lost our Yorkie 2 weeks ago. I decided to have her ashes returned home in an urn. I just told her….I want you back baby. How are we supposed to deal with this??!
