very touching, and sad. I also think dogs grieve deeply. After Sherman died, Star would lie on "their" quilt, staring at the wall. She lost a quarter of her body weight as she wouldn't eat for days at a time. It was so sad. I had talked to Nancy Efusy and she said it would be very hard on star because she & Sherman were so very close. that's partly why we went & got jack so soon after, but it took a long time for Star to accept him. It all worked out, they became buddies and were good company for each other.
