I got back on to say I'm sorry to sound flip and "funny" in the light of the posts just before mine by tis and codeman671. To lose a loved pet is exactly like losing any other family member, because that is what they are. We lost a sheltie we'd had for 12 years, three years ago and it nearly killed us. We were not going to have any more dogs..."too old"! That lasted 12 days. God was good enough to let another sheltie arrive to rule us inside of a couple months. I don't know where we'd be without her now, so you have my heartfelt sympathy. The pain was bad; I hope you'll get to have another "joy" down the road.
