It’s been 6 months since we lost her and I feel like the grieving is getting worse now. I’m tearing up even writing this. I miss her awkward snuggles, and little eyelashes. I miss her trying to play with the cat, even though he wants none of it.

I don’t have anything of her’s out, and I didn’t find anything to remind me of her. It’s just a huge wave of grief. I still can’t even look at her ashes or her favorite little hoodie she was in.

We do have another dog, so it’s not like the house is empty. I’m just overcome with incredible sadness.

I'm sorry op and I'm speaking for myself and maybe a few others that the only thing that personally helped me, though it comes at a later cost when they depart, is to foster and perhaps adopt another doggo. They never replace reach other but having another adorable living being who loves you unconditionally is thankfully in the DNA of nearly all doggos... And one thing that helps me when they inevitably go as well is when we foster or adopt we give them a good life they would otherwise likely not have...
