senjuro: Well, at least you can say he lived about what was expected from him. And another thing: he died fast. But sure, even if he had lived 20, you would still miss him. But that's a wee bit more of consolation, not enough, but still....
Using your own words, let's trust that with time, bad memories will fade with time and only good ones will remain...
Gunter: That's what's important, to have all the good moments you can, so you can't regret you didn't no matter how much time he lives. And the more I think about it, the more I think the moment of all beings' death is already determined. But my doggy had many things against him: he died of renal insufficiency, and it seems he had had renal problems all his life (he drank water all day and urinated a lot, way more than normal). And he was a pure blooded Pekinese, which had two disadvantages: Pure blooded dogs are weaker than mongrels, and Pekineses are very weak overall. And I had a neighbor that said she had a dog that looked just like mine, and he had died of diabetes at age 8.
*sigh* well...Don't get sad about things that may or may not happen tomorrow....Just keep in mind that like in my sig, we don't live forever.
