Sorry Dayswalters and JadeD, I didn't see your posts before I answered. I guess each experience of grieving is different and there's no right or wrong response. I'm just not used to being so hesitant, it's unusual for me. If anything I tend to be more impulsive. JadeD your response is my husband's worst nightmare

I can totally see myself doing the same thing and ending up with a little family of Yorkies to love

You clearly have a wonderful heart and those little Yorkies are very lucky!
