Yesterday hurt. My family dog, who my sisters and I raised, had to be put to sleep. He was in pain. In spite of his pain, he would wag his tail whenever I visited and attempt to bark in greeting (he had a tumor in his throat.)
It hurt because I didn't get to say goodbye.
I didn't get to stroke his head and tell him I loved him. Or tell him the happy memories. (okay he's a dog, he wouldn't understand but I like the memories).
I know now when I go to see my sister tomorrow, no little doggy face is going to be at the window waiting to see me.
Yet i feel a little selfish for it too.

Animals are the sweetest, so loving and giving. I am sorry he got the tumor. Since he was always glad to see you, take consolation in knowing you brought happiness to his life. May you remember him with with not too sad a memory. RIP family friend

condolences on the passing of your beloved doggy friend. Do not feel guilty just grieve however you need and may it soon pass so that you can feel the joy in your memories of the good times you shared.

You aren't being selfish, and it's understandable that it hurt not to be there. He was your buddy too. I am SO sorry for your loss
