Recently deceased dog - advice on grieving?

We had Max (Siberian husky) for 13 wonderful years. Found out he had aggressive cancer and made the hard decision to let him go peacefully with the help of a vet yesterday. We gave him a wonderful last week and a great last day.

I knew this was coming as his health was in steep decline for the last 6 months.

I can’t help but feel immense sadness and guilt (he was happy, albeit slow, and on a cocktail of meds right up until we had to let him go - wasn’t sustainable).

Family situation was/is rocky but he was always a goofy lovable ray of sunshine for my siblings and I. We are just devastated. I have been through a lot in life but losing him is making me break down every few hours or so and I am a grown adult (32F).

How and when does this get better? Anyone have any advice?
