I'm very sorry for your loss. When my dog Joey died (it seems like just yesterday even though it's been exactly 1 year, 5 days, 13 hours, and 4 minutes since that fateful moment) it took me a very long time to cope (I was going to say "get over it" but honestly I never did get over it and I don't think I ever will).

Remember all the good times you had and try to keep them with you. Through even the short time Joey has been gone, I can feel the memories slipping away. You had a good 11 years. Cherish them, always.

I have seen several of my pets pass away through the years, and it's something you never "get used to". I have never known a veterinarian who didn't tear up when they put one of my pets to sleep (I've only had one who died of old age at home). It's a terrible feeling, and it leaves you wondering if there was more you could've done for them. But, if your pet is suffering and the vet does not give them a good prognosis, it's the best thing to do.

I'm very sorry for your loss. I'm sure Chloe is in puppy heaven playing with my Max, Molly, T-Bone, and CoCo, and countless other peoples' pets

. I think she would want you to know that and find comfort in the fact that she's now at peace.

thanks guys for all the condolences and kind thoughts. i have a new dog now. hes a 9 month old Rhodesian Ridgeback, named Tuck. hes going to be between 85-100 pounds when hes fully grown. hes very affectionate, loves to play fetch and mess around with the neighborhood dogs. hes a cute one, but hes got big pawprints to fill. but so far, hes been absolutely wonderful. i miss Chloe of course, but i think she would approve of Tuck.

Well guys an update is in order. I've had tuck now for almost 3 months and he has really settled in as a member of the family. he loves going for walks, and chasing me around the house, or chewing on his toys as i lie on the coach and watch tv. he sure knows where to go to get spoiled that's for sure.

I'm happy you're having fun with Tuck. He sounds like a cute dog
