Pets give us inconditional love and so we can become very attached to them. And they feel our love for them so the dog knows how much you cared. I think it is important for your well being to address the guilt you feel. Having a pattern of feeling guilty about everything we did or didn't do can severely undermine our personal well being. You aren't doing anything wrong. It's important to address any patterns of guilt in your life or it will eat you up alive and feed any anxiety you have. Please do try to let yourself off the hook. We aren't meant to be perfect. Morn the loss of the dog. It's normal to be sad but challenge the guilt you feel over it. It isn't necessary or helpful for you to work through the loss. Hugs
