So sorry for your loss GB. When I had to put my black & tan coon hound down that I had for 14 yrs. I went down into the basement so no one would see me sobbing. I have a new dog now that I love very much, but I still think of my hound dog when my head hits the pillow at night and I can see her in my head running through the woods, jumping up every once in a while so she could see where I was. I hope you will, in time, will get another dog.
