I remember my dog dying about 2 years back, he was pretty old, about 15. I wasn’t even born then, so yeah. I miss him like hell even if he was a little bit stupid or senile at times, I feel the heartache, I’m sorry for your loss
Pepper lived a surprisingly long life. When we got her back in 2014, I was only 4. The Vet told us she would only live 6 years due to her nose being underdeveloped. She lived 11 years.
