I am a widow age 77. I live along and I want a small dog. I really want a Shih but I know I can't afford to pay much, I have always loved dogs, My dog died

several years ago. I loved that dog so much. When she died I rocked her for several hours, Then I wrapped Baby up in her blanket and put her on the pillow and I crawled into bed and when to sleep. Daylight came so I rocked her some moreuntil I could call ny son. We buried baby in our doggie cementary./ Thank you, Jenny
