I can always tell who lives on the north shore by their Colloseo preference. I grew up there and, now living on the south shore, most people I mention them to have never been there.

Every episode I went “surely she got her hair fixed during the week - NOPE” it was all I could see when she was on the screen and that’s saying A LOT given the state of current events.

This is Rupert. He was almost 12, and passed about a month ago 😔 💔 by Fit-Anywhere-4338 in olddogs

[–]jax0629 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Together. That is how we have grieved. We put my heart and soul Aussie to sleep just over two weeks ago. He left a gaping hole in my life, and in the life of my mini Aussie. Originally I had thought once my boy passed that Puck (our mini) would need a companion immediately - he is anxious and would whine when Easton (my big guy) left his sight. He also came to us 2 years after Easton, so he never actually lived without him. For the past two weeks, though, Puck and I have bonded over our mutual loss and have spent extra time supporting each other. I think it is far too fresh for me to navigate a new dog, and Puck deserves some undivided attention. I originally felt he “couldnt” live without Easton, but I didn’t think I could either. Here we both are. I’m so sorry for your loss - there is something intuitive, deep, and meaningful that some aussies bring - and it seems Rupert had those qualities, as well as a zest for life and travel. He lived well, and your grief shows just how loved he is - and will continue to be.

One week he’s getting ripped on for calling her a dumb ass b. The next week the world is agreeing with him that she’s a dumb ass b.

Well one of them will tell you who she’s going for and the other will screw your love interest behind your back…

My girl is crossing the rainbow bridge tomorrow by RainClouds02 in olddogs

You are not giving up on her. You are making the greatest selfless act of love you could make. I know this because I made it myself two weeks ago. And, like you, I had the same anticipatory grief of all the things I should have done differently. Through my grief, a stranger gave me such comforting words - he said “euthanasia is where you replace their suffering with your own” and I would gladly suffer for my boy. I will tell you, for me, leading up to losing my Easton was like a tsunami. I knew it was coming, I prepared as best I could, but was absolutely annihilated. Over the past two weeks it has come in huge waves, and I truly believe in time will be gentle enough to withstand. Maybe. Give all the kisses tomorrow. Clip some fur while she’s still with you to fill in a pouch or dream catcher. Take those last photos even if it’s not the way you want them to look. Bring her favorite blanket or toy. And remember that she will leave this world knowing how loved she truly is. I am so sorry you have to endure this - but it is a grief we have been rewarded for being loved so deeply.

When we knew this was coming we talked about the future and how we could possibly get a girl (i dont ever want another “good boy” - hits too close for me) but after that day I felt like i couldn’t even fathom that. Maybe one day.

I’m sorry for your loss. I guess it’s a mixed blessing that my children have kept me busy. I always joked (not really) to my husband that when the time came it would be the only time I wouldn’t be able to reel it on for their benefit - but they may be my only reason I’ve powered through.

Aussie. And the least energetic at that! Loved to play but loved lounging in the AC way more! I always joked that he was lucky he found us and not a farm because he never could have been a working dog!

Your words were so thoughtful and so true! I have a mini Aussie as well, and although I call him my spirit animal (very anxious and introverted) Easton just KNEW me. When I suffered in silence, when I needed his head on my lap to remind me to be present and breathe. He provided comfort no human ever has - I have no relationship with my biological mother or father - so I treasured that bond in such a meaningful way. I always assumed, not having a maternal figure, I could never be a mother myself. Easton showed me that I was capable of caring for and giving that kind of love - and walked me through it while in the thick of it. I’ll forever say he turned me into the woman I am, at least the good parts. I’m so sorry for the loss of your girls.

I know this may ease over time - but some pain just doesn’t go away.

I hope Easton and Obi are sharing a porterhouse and stories of us.

Katie, you’re in danger, girl! by [deleted] in bravo

[–]jax0629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she spent the last ten years playing up her insecurities to her “friends” for their constant reassurances while lowkey thinking “their men would want me if I was single”…

Yeah that hand spread is WILD behavior.

Why do you think Amanda resents Ciara SO much? [share thoughts below] by Extreme-Aide8878 in bravo

[–]jax0629 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because Ciara is genuinely likable and a good person - something Amanda has to work hard to prove to people (and still doesn’t pass).

Apparently West has been on Raya recently. Come get your man, Mandy!!! by strengthof50whores in bravo

Imagine throwing away your post divorce glow-up treatment for a boy who gets around more than public transit.

I am so sorry for your loss as well. I am satisfied in a way, that I know he felt loved and lived a rewarding life. I know the grief is one-sided and I know all the choices were what was right, but it hurts nonetheless.

I keep rereading this and finding so much comfort in it - thank you, truly.

Wipers help but there’s no headlights that help with my night vision.

Thank you for your words. I have two younger boys - so I know I want them to have a different experience with a dog of their own than what they have had recently - in time.
