* Allow yourself to feel sad and grieve. It is important to process the emotions that come with losing a pet. This may include crying, feeling angry, or feeling lost. Give yourself time to mourn and express your feelings.
* Talk to friends, family, or a therapist about your feelings. Talking about your grief can help you to process it and feel less alone.
* Take care of yourself physically. Make sure to get enough sleep, eat healthy foods, and exercise regularly. Taking care of yourself will help you to feel better both physically and mentally.
* Create a memorial for your pug. This could include planting a tree in their memory, creating a photo album, or writing a letter about them. Keeping their memory alive can help you to feel connected to them and honor their life.
* Get another pug or pet if you are ready. Getting another pet can help you to feel loved and connected to a new furry friend, but be sure to only do this when you are ready and willing to make a lifelong commitment to caring for another pet.
Remember that grief is a natural process and that it takes time to heal. Be patient with yourself and allow yourself to grieve in your own way.
