CFrance, I hear what you are saying but another permanent dog for us isn't possible at this time because besides our greyboy we still have 2 borzoi. We will be at our 3 dog limit when we move to TV. I think Bravo's grief is like ours, specifically for his lost buddy and even having 2 other brothers isn't helping. We have always been an active greyhound foster family and had to give that up this past year due to Mellow's health issues. I am hoping that when we can handle it in a month or so maybe, we will foster again. That might help all of us AND do something to help a dog find a forever home (not ours). A win-win for all of us.
Bare, I love your memorial idea and did that here. I put the cards I got, his collar,a baggie of hair, and some pictures together. It is a sad yet beautiful place to keep for a while as we grieve. Thank you
