My beloved Mastiff Teddy passed Sunday — how I’m grieving.
I’ve had dogs in the past but none of them have impacted me the way Teddy has. He made me feel complete. I always did everything in my power to please him, and he would do the same. The love this dog had for physical contact was more than any Mastiff I’ve had before. All he knew was love.
A few days before he passed (when I realized it would happen), I became obsessed with his smell. When I would cuddle and smell him, I could feel the smell dispersing through my brain. Like I was getting high. It was the most soothing experience ever, and is now still happening. There’s a rolled up rug with a lot or his fur stuck to it. When I smell it, I get that same feeling. I smell his collar too, but there’s not enough hair stuck to it to get the effect. The rug works beautifully though. Keeping his collar near me makes me feel like he’s still here. I’m currently wearing it around my upper thigh. It’s the only spot big enough for it. He was a big boy. And so loving. And so beautiful.
Hug your doggies extra tight for me please.
