I am so deeply sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine that situation. How awful for you I know the terrible hurt you must be going through. I pray no one took them out of the yard. That would be absolutely horrendous.

Everyone has different opinions on how long you should wait to adopt a new pet after losing one. i think its just different for everyone. I know that for myself, it would help immensely to get another one right away. I wouldn't be replacing my lost baby, and I know I could never do that. But I would be bringing a new love into my life to help me through the tough times. I wouldn't just rush out and grab any puppy I saw though. I'd make sure there was a special bond with that animal before adopting

I wish you luck in your decision. You will know in your heart when it is the right time. Your heart will also tell you which baby is right for you.

Please give your dog a hug and kiss from me.
