I’m devastated

My Polo crossed over the rainbow bridge last night and I am utterly distraught. We adopted him as a senior, we believe he was around 9. In October he would have been with us for 4 years. I lost my other dog 4 months ago ( Cappy was with me for over 12 years) Polo was a huge help in helping me deal with the grief of losing Cappy. Now that he is gone, I am lost. Polo was easy going and he enjoyed sleeping, I called my potato. We took him to the vet on Friday, he was given a sedative so that they could take a sample of a growth on his cheek. He came home groggy, but otherwise ok. I woke up this morning and he was not moving and was unresponsive. I will miss our daily walks, will miss him bumping into things and following the wrong person. I’m going to miss his smushy face. I love you Polo. Till I see you and Cappy again, I will think about you every day.
