My beautiful Jake died about the same time as your Sassy. It has been very difficult. I finally decided that since it didn't seem that I had made much progress in "grieving" (ie, I still sobbed when I look at his pictures and video, think about him every day, etc), I might as well just get another puppy and enjoy the happiness of that.

I don't think you ever "get over" the ones who have your heart, its a bit easier to get through the day, but you still think of them, love them, miss them with all your heart and soul. All you can do is find the ones you can love, and do the best for them that you can.
