I know this might sound weird but sometimes when I look in my little puppies eyes I get sad. I realize that I'm holding her in my hands and she's just a little pup. When she looks at me "extra-special" you know with those puppy dog eyes and she starts to try to lick my face, I think "I'm going to miss you so much someday".
or..."someday this is going to be really, really hard". I snap out of it and move on to enjoy my moment, but it's always there a little. You get sort of the parental instict with your animal, but as a parent you don't plan to outlive your children.
