I lost my dog, my precious girl, 7 months ago. I still grieve and cry daily. This might be due to me not having friends and family. If I did, maybe I would have moved on.

But it might also be that I didn’t give her the best life that she could have had. I didn’t give her weekly day-long adventures in the forest. So many hours playing video games instead of playing with her. Everyone makes mistakes, it is how you learn. But my dog deserved better than to be a trial an error thing. Which is why I will never get another dog. Because that I made so many mistakes that she had to suffer for. And I cannot imagine giving another dog what I should have given her.

So I will resign myself to a life of solitude. But damn, do I dream that I could go back in time to when I first got her. Knowing all I know now, I’d give anything, all I own. I’d give my house and be homeless forever, just for some more time with her.

Ever owned just on dog? How does it compare to owning two? It might be better if the dog has a friend to play with. But does the bond between you as a human and the dog “lessen”?

The electricity cost must be high? Do you use all of them every day?
