In reply to the discussion: Horrible day today. I needed to write this. New here so sorry if it's the wrong forum. [View all]BadgerMom
(3,054 posts)22. As a mom of 2 Aussies
and a having had two others who both lived to be 16, but who were not in great shape their final year or so, I feel this. You have some tear-filled days ahead, I fear. Things will eventually improve, though. Hang in there.
Aussies are so smart, loving, brave. They want to please. And, yeah, they absolutely have senses of humor.
Weve put our grief at their losses at arms length by adopting pups. Are your circumstances such that you could do that? One more time?
