Anyone know how to handle grief?

Grief is painful yet essential. It hurts so much. You must grieve though.

First, you are expressing your loss and sharing it, so others can express sympathy. This is an important first step. Your loss is real and valid and needs expression. So allow yourself to go through that process.
Once that has settled a little, its about filling your mind with other things. Not to forget. You wont. But to paper over the cracks and fill the holes with other things. The obvious is to get another puppy. But at this point that would probably be a mistake. However, find something to occupy your mind, so you dont dwell.

I'm not sure grief CAN be managed for a while...it's love with no place to go...cry when you have to

One of our dogs also died very recently. It was very hard for several days. Now not so bad, because she had very poor quality of life before she died. It’s better that she’s not choking and forgetting where she is and falling down stairs. I don’t know if it was anything like that for your dog, though. You have my sincere condolences!

My personal advice is to take a day off, the sooner the better. Release as much as you can on that day even if you have to induce it, then let it take it's coarse from there. It will take time to adjust and know that what you're going through is normal 🤗

I'm so sorry you lost a good little friend. I don't have a recipe that will help you. All I can say is you have my sympathy and prayers. Just take one day at a time, the hurt will lessen. But don't ever forget the love you shared.

Very sorry, the loss of a pet is one of the hardest things to have to go through. Take care of yourself, spend some time remembering your dog and the times you shared. Be assured you will see your dog again.

I'm sorry for your loss. Remember your grief, is for your sake, not your dog's. WE miss them.
We'll all meet again at the clearing at the end of the path.
And your dog will meet you there, too.

I am so sorry I think it's different for everyone but just be more Gentle with yourself and take as long as you need

I like to ground it up, season it, cook it and call it ground Grief

🤗so sorry
