That's it exactly, the emptiness. I vowed also to never put myself through this again, but I know I can never go the rest of my life without another dog. Dogs are a part of who I am. It's still to soon for me right now but I want to someday rescue another dog and give them the love they've never known. My kids aren't ready yet either, I think with them it's a feeling of being disloyal. It's just been hard on us all, but I know they'll eventually come around, we just miss her so much.
I know what you mean about feeling disloyal, we did deal with that too. Our kids are grown and in other parts of the country so the house was even more quiet than normal, couldn't stand it had to fill it with something four legged and furry. I do think the boys are more spoiled because of losing Bo. Dogs are certainly a big part of who I am so I know how you exactly how you are feeling, the right time will come and so will the right dog. Hugs, Kathy
