Zabo, I am very sorry to hear this, I personally went through this myself and my 6 year old Belgin Shepard, she was my best buddy, I couldn't bring myself to get another dog for almost a year. that was about 7 years ago......My current buddy is a dream, her name is Princess Arwen Undomiel. She brings a lot of joy to my life. In time, you too will find another furry child to fill your life. It will just take time.
