This is so hard. We had Bud for 11 years, and he was like a part of the family. He was so ill...and the day before he was going to be put to sleep he kept licking my sister and my mom and at the same time they were thinking that he was telling them it was ok. At the vet when he usually goes nuts, he just sat there and wagged his tail whenever my mom and I talked to him. It was the hardest thing in the whole world to watch them put my dog to sleep. I feel like a part of me is lost. I know that some people who do not have animals do not understand. I just don't know how to cope with it. I dont feel like getting another animal would help anything...I would feel like my dog Bud would think that we're replacing him when we really aren't. He was such a good dog and lived a good life. So how do I know that he's ok? Will he send us a sign? I hope so. Any suggestions?
