I can tell you from experience , you never know how long any bully will have. I had my first for 9 months before he passed away unexpectedly. I wouldn't trade those 9 months for anything in the world even though it was way to short. We had what feels like a lifetime of good days and happy memories. I'm so sorry to hear about Abby. I hope that you are able to focus on the good times you have with her and enjoy the time you have no matter how short or long it is. Good luck . I will keep you two in my prayers.
