Christine,
I haven't been on this board in forever, but when I saw your painful post, I had to reply with my deepest condolences. I am so very sorry for your loss. I, too, am a devoted animal person, and I know how you feel right now. Those pictures of Kinde are just gorgeous. Poms are such great dogs. She's beautiful.
Take care, it will get better, sweetie. Keep kissing your other puppies, they'll make you feel better
