I lost my 4 months old dog

[Coman Raul]

So yesterday my dog passed away due to parvovirus . I didn't knew that he had it until yesterday , I tought that is because he pooped out a parasite , but it wasn't just that , I contacted a friend of mine yesterday and he gave me numbers from some vets , but they weren't available because it was a Sunday , I feel so miserable not contacting him sooner , he died because of me , I feel empty , I feel like my heart is gone, I just can't process the idea of him not being here , my house seems so empty. I cry everyday , I don't know what to do , I can't even imagine the days I didn't had him even tho he was just 4 months old.

 I’m so very sorry for your lost. He knows that you truly love him. The road ahead of you is a rough one as it is for me. The should've and could’ve is what also kills me. Guilt and emptiness is extremely painful and I wish I could say something to ease the pain. So sorry for your lost. May he Rest In Peace.

I am so sorry for your loss.  How did you find out your dog had it?  It killed him so quickly, it must be hard to process.

I hope these articles are of help to you.  Also posting this video in the hopes it brings you some comfort and peace.

It helps to do something to memorialize them.  I have my dog's paw print up in my kitchen.  I have a spot where I have his lock of fur, a copy of the memories of him I wrote about, a bracelet in his memory, etc.  His coat still hangs on my chair a year later, I hold it when I need to hold "him."  His leash and collar still hang by the door, the sympathy cards I got a year ago still on display on my table, I can't move them.  His bed still behind the couch.  He was everything in the world to me.
