Lost my life time buddy

I am sorry to hear about your loss. I had a pug for 17 plus years and as she grew old I realized that I was keeping her here on earth for me, not for her. She was deaf, almost blind and had very few teeth, but I kept her here instead of letting her go and rest for all eternity. After a year went by I decided to look for another dog. I found a one year old Brussels Griffon in the pound in Salt Lake City. The wife and I went to look at this dog and we immediately recognized our lost companion. We adopted this dog and named him Bosco. This was 4 years ago and he never seemed to take to the name of Bosco. However, when we call him our old pugs name he tilts his head, his tail wags, and he runs right to you. Imagine that. I believe that our pugs spirit lives on in Bosco and we could not have a better companion. Once you move on you will love another dog or cat. Not quite the same as before as no one can exactly fill that spot in your heart, but your heart and soul will once again be full.
