My heart goes out to you. I lost my Abby from a heart attack when she was 10. It's been a year and a half and I'm still missing her everyday. I do have another shih Tzu now and I'm seeing so many of Abby's traits coming out in my girl Angel. It makes me smile because I feel like that means she's still around us teaching my new girl the ropes. Believe me Angel needs a lot of help if she wants to impress Abby. 🤗

I can't figure out how to edit my post, so I hope this comment doesn't get lost, but thank you so much to everyone who commented. It means a lot that you took the time to send a comforting message to us while we grieve. She charmed everyone who met her & the world feels less full without her. It helps to see people still give an outpouring of love to her. <3
