I wondered how Grump was dealing with the loss, I suppose not eating was a kind of
sad feeling. I don't know if a cat has the same instinct. At least new life is blossoming
I guess we all feel happy for you.

I'm so sorry that you're still in pain over this loss, but of course it's understandable. I hope this suggestion isn't totally out of line, but have you considered at some point possibly adopting another dog of a similar breed and color? No, no, no . . . he could never 'replace' Smooch. But having him there might turn out to be somewhat of a blessing. Just a thought . . .

Saying goodbye is hard.
And watching someone you love in grief is even harder than grieving yourself, I think.
My heart's with you. And I'm glad life is moving along, too! Smiles back at you!

Your post is so touching... Or maybe I'm just a bit raw these days...
But you made me tear up. (it's okay). What response immediately came to mind is a quote from Kalil Gibran. "Joy and sorrow are brothers. When one is sitting at your table, the other is sleeping in your bed."
So good to know your boy is recovering his appetite, and crossing my fingers for a whole bunch of beautiful, happy babies to come.

Now that is quite a post. Don't know how you make it through when everything is coming down on you at the same time. But, I think I know--it is that smile that sustains you and makes it fun to read your posts.

Congrats on all the new babies - your family is doing its part to turn Canada's low birth rate around, LOL...And I know what you mean when you say that you and and Grump are still grieving over Smooch! Even though it's been well over two years since we lost our Jag, and no matter how much I love my Bennie boy, I'll never forget my other wonderful companion...

i went from crying, my doggie loss is still fresh, to smiling, it sounds like suzie is a god-send and the new babies coming into your life.
funny how we still feel our dogs presence even when they are gone. my lucy still misses ace, she is eating now, but still looks for ace in his old haunts.
company is something i do not get often enough.....but babies i have not met one that could not make me smile and feel happy.
our life rythems seem to be close, our ups and downs in sync.
