      Thank you. It’s been a few years. I’m okay but, much as I miss having a dog in my life, I don’t think getting another one right now would be a good idea for them or me. I’m sorry for the loss of your friend.

        Honestly, same. I lost my own in 2019 and I’m still not ready. I know I’ll get another but the time will have to be right.

          I have a kid who turns seven very soon. They remember some of our previous dogs, but very vaguely. I’m waiting for them to ask for a dog, then I’ll decide.

          I also have three cats. Two of them are around fifteen years old. I’m going to have a lot of processing to do distressingly soon.
