i'm so sorry to hear that. It is tough, no doubt about that. Its amazing how close you can get to an animal. We had to put my dog down in 2003. We had her since i was 2, i was 18 when we put her down. We had her for as long as could remember. I have a new dog now, and she is awesome. The best dog i could ask for, but i still miss my old dog a lot.
