my first dog died a year ago . he was only 4 years old . i am sorry for your loss . how did he die if you do n't mind me asking ? he had to have surgery because he ate something he should n't and it got caught . they told us he only had a 5 % chance of survival and even then he would be in a lot of pain for a long time . we put him down to keep him out of pain . that 's terrible ... at least you tried to save him .
The loss of a beloved pet triggered the feeling of devastation.
