I am so sorry that you are still having a difficult time.
I, too, said that I wouldn't get another dog after losing Lindsay... it was too difficult saying good-bye. But my vet was the one who suggested I find another..... he said why waste too much time before finding another dog ..... you gave 16 years - good healthy years- to a dog!! Why not give another dog that special treatment! There are plenty of them out there and having a Long-term home is what a dog needs. Some dog out there would LOVE to have you as an owner and would give you that loyalty right back!..
Getting another dog is not replacing the relationship with the dog you lost.... but a tribute to them but giving another dog a wonderful home.
Hope you will consider another pet (of course, in time & when you are ready) .... I think they would LOVE sharing your home with you.
