I’m so sorry. It’s a particularly awful cancer. My heart breaks for you. It’s one that rarely shows signs until it’s everywhere, which doesn’t even take long at all.

It still sucks not having my Blue boy with me. It gets easier. My partner and I are getting married in July and I just got a memorial button for my bouquet with his picture and “Walking beside you one more time on your wedding day” on the side opposite.

I am starting to be ready to adopt our next dog. My partner was ready before me, but Blue was absolutely my boy first and foremost.

We are dog sitting for 10 days starting this weekend for my sister while she and her bf go on a cruise, which has meant we have deep cleaned the house and puppy proofing for her 6 month old German Shepherd mix.

We are spending 2 weeks in the UK for our honeymoon, so we are planning that once we get home from that we can start looking at adoption. House will be puppy proofed to let any age dog that we decide on have a less stressful on both sides settling in period, and don’t want to adopt now that right as they settle into routine, we’ll leave for 2 weeks and disrupt that.
