Dinah, your post brought tears to my eyes and memories flooding back. I lost my little dog 4 years ago, she was 13, we'd rescued her from the pound when she was one.
Dogs are amazing companions, giving true, unconditional love.
I'm so glad it ended that way for Harry and you, peaceful and caring.
He'll always be part of your life. I keep thinking my dog is in the kitchen, mooching for dropped goodies during dinner preparation. It took me ages to stop expecting her to be sitting by the door when I got home.
It'll take a long time for the heartache to subside, and it won't ever really go away completely. But you will have fun and fond memories and your life was and is, richer for his presence in it.
Take very good care of yourself right now.
Hugs,
Jas
