We had two Bichon frises . When the male died a year ago we both cried and still miss him. We still have the female who , after the male’s death , would go out in the backyard and just look around for five minutes. It broke my heart.
I hope I have the willpower to not get anymore pets. It’s just too hurtful when they die. And they require upkeep. We spent thousands on the one we have now.
