I am so so sorry to hear about your loss, and I do truly understand.
I lost my Max almost 6 weeks ago, and he was my whole world, the reason I live and breathe. Being ill myself, I am home almost 100% of the time, he never left my side and helped me cope with some very hard times in life.
He was ill for the last 2.5 years of his life, and I was the one who made the descision to let him go, when I knew it was time to.
It was the HARDEST thing I have ever ever done in my whole life.
My husband and I were with him, and so was his Yorkie Brother when he passed away.
I always felt I would not want another one when he was no longer here.
But the pain was so bad. I needed someone to love, and care for. Even though Levi (my 9.5 year old Yorkie) is a sweet loving boy, I needed something to help ease the pain.
So I have a puppy and it has helped me to cope.
Like many have said, no other dog will ever replace the one you have lost. No one will be the same as that special one, they will have a piece of your heart forever, but in time the tears of pain and sadness will turn to tears of joy as you remember the good times you shared.
Having Teddy my puppy, has helped take the edge of my pain, and I am sure it will be the same for you.
You are in my thoughts at this time.
Take Care

& Teddy
