Thursday, January 01, 2004 Happy New Year everyone who does (not) read this blog. :) The other day, while visitng with a few friends, I was forced to see the relatively new dogs of one of my friends. I didn't really want to see these dogs thinking I would have to put on a brave face and be reminded of Cookie. Fortunately though, I made it through ok and actually had a really good time. I played with these adorable dogs named Buddy & Peanut and was reminded of how good it feels to be around dogs at all. I thought of Cookie, but I wasn't immediately sad or depressed or even feeling like I betrayed her for feeling happy around another dog. Bonding with these dogs in the short amount of time I did, reminded me that when the time comes for me to have another dog, I will be ok. I could love a dog and not feel compelled to compare it to Cookie as I thought, I could play and treat it with love and care in it's own special and unique way. Cookie, is special to me and will always be my first real pet and I couldn't love her more still. I just can't have another Shih Tzu or dog that really resembles Cookie. When I thought I would rescue/become foster parent to another Shih Tzu, I just broke down in tears. The thought of another dog living in Cookie's space, using ANY of her belongings just killed me (and actually still does). So not until I move into another home will I get another dog. I need time to adjust to my life without Cookie, but when the time comes, I think I will be ok. posted by lisa | linkorama | |
