^Wow I am so sorry to hear of your loss of Jake!
It has now been three weeks. And I think I went 4 whole days without crying. Those happened to be the days before having a scheduled c-section to deliver our 2nd skin kid. But now that I have pregnancy out of the way I cry just about every day again for the loss of Bronco. I would say Lexi is dealing with her new life well. We have been spoiling her rotten, letting her be in the house all the time and giving her lots of treats and attention. In fact I think she gets more attention than she wants by our 2 year old. She has been an excellent dog since Bronco headed for the bridge. Previously she was out of control, you couldn't even pet her without her freaking out and getting way too excited. She didn't listen and she got into everything. Now that she's our only dog she doesn't get into mischief, she sticks around when she has the chance to run off, and she is very calm. So long story short I think she's doing better than I am...but then again, maybe she can see Bronco....don't they say dogs have a "6th sense"??

I'm very sorry for your loss Anna. It's always such a sad thing to lose one of our fur kids. I can't tell you how long your grief will last, but I can tell you that even 2.5 years after having to help my beloved cat to the bridge, I still think of her and cry - I just miss her so much. She was the BEST baby ever. I know that you feel that way about your pup. It will ease with time. You're in my thoughts.

Anna, aren't pets amazing? Maybe Lexi does have a 6th sense!? I hope your newest addition is also doing well. Is Lexi doing okay with a second skinkid in the house?
When I lost Jake recently, my parrot started pulling out scads of feathers. And the two of them had a "tenuous" relationship at best! I think she misses him trying to scoot under her cage throughout the day scrounging for snacks!! And my parents' Boston Terrier will not let ME play "who's got the bone?" with her, that was her game with Jake every day. Pets are just so intuitive and they never cease to amaze me. Somehow, I'm not too surprised to hear your reports on Lexi's good behavior. Hope you are well and healing from your loss.

Thank you all for your continued support through my loss. It has now been a month. Sometimes it feels just like yesterday Bronco passed, and other days it seems like it's been forever that we had him. I miss him everyday. Although the days are getting easier. I can't go to his burial place without crying though. My husband goes out every night to say goodnight to Bronco. I am emotional just thinking about it! Lexi is still doing well and is still a very good girl. She's adjusted great to our new skinkid. And lets our 2 year old play with her all the time. She's been great and I'm glad we at least have her (Bronco is/was always the favorite)
Thanks again! It means a lot to hear from other people that have gone through similar situations!
