Not every one can do this, but I always get another dog as soon as I can because it changes the hurt to excitement with a new puppy. Good luck Laura and let me know if I can do anything for you.

Kathie, you and I are on the same page with getting another pet soon. It surely helped me get over the loss of our first golden when we got our second one, who happened to be born the weekend the first one died. So it was 8 weeks between dogs, and those were the hardest 8 weeks ever. I kept Kleenex in business. I said to my husband, I can't stop crying. I have to go get another dog. He was of the opposite train of thought: get over this one first. I'm so glad he caved on that one.
And there are those sweet dogs that jsling has found and is fostering--one small female and a larger male.
