Tomorrow markes 1 month that we had to put our pug Hannah down. I don't even want to get out of bed. The pain is still as raw as it was the day we said goodbye. Is this ever gonna end?

I'm so sorry wik5. I am just moving into my fourth week. 

I attended an online pet memorial this past Monday that really helped me to move forward a little.  I will add the link here if you would like to try that.  They do the services every Monday at 9pm (C).  Here is the link.

I hope the grief becomes a little more tolerabel for you soon. 

BTW, I don't know if it ever ends but it does get better. I have started reminding myself that I didn't say goodby to Dekker (my pug who died) but instead said, "Until we meet again."  It gives me hope and something to look forward to.  That I will see him again one day soon.

I would also recommended talking as much as you feel up to with friends, family, other pug lovers.  It helped me to get out of bed and move on.  I know Dekker would want me to move on and not stay stuck in my grief.  As hard as that is.

Please keep writing here and letting me know how you are doing.  I understand the vice like grip grief can have when we lose these incredible little guys/gals!

Its going to take time to deal with your grief.  Believe or not it will get easier.  I lost my heart dog (my golden retriever Sport) in Aug of 2007 and although I still think of him everyday I don't cry ,(well only sometimes),  I think of him with smiles.  And my boys, Hank (pug) and Archie (golden), are always there when I need them. You hang in there.
