You're right @TAB , it's about putting things in perspective?

@Clawde , I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Hugs to you. I had two dogs in the past which had to be put down due to their age. I miss them dearly - to the point where I don't think I could own another dog.

As a person with BPD, separation is extremely hard - animals or people. We feel things sooooo deeply. I remember when my dogs started to go downhill, I began to withdraw from them. I couldn't bear the pain of watching them get worse each day. I loved my dogs so much. So loyal. Man's best friend.

Thinking of you @Clawde ,
