Geeeez, so sorry for your loss. You're right, they're like children. Last year we had to put down our Collie/Shepherd mix. He was 14. I'm not ashamed to say I wretched and cryed my eyes out that day afterwards. We all did. To our cat, Rex was his "mom"...they slept together. Took him 1 month to get over it. The pain will eventually die down. There will ALWAYS be the happy memories though. And as others have said previously, and you know too, you did the best, most unselfish thing for Duke....he's all better now.....
