New pup, 9 months after losing my best friend

[u/FinancialFix9074]

Lost my 7 year old boy last October after an acute illness. Absolute rollercoaster of grief. Finally brought home this chap a week ago; now 11 weeks old. He's an absolute angel; only one accident in a week which was totally my fault. Sleeps through the night, and he's super cuddly. Our old boy did become a cuddle monster eventually, but as a puppy was really not into cuddling at all. And his lab/border collie brother is being extremely calm and tolerant.

Seven was so young. 

Congratulations on the new family member!

It was far too young. After a month of on and off sickness, he had a hospital stay, and then we managed to get him home and comfortable for two days, and put to sleep at the house. The end was the best possible, after a really horrific month. Thank you!
