I, too, am very sorry for your loss. Over the sixty years of my life I have lost too many wonderful companions. Every one was special in their own way and I miss them all. They are still in my memories and I wonder sometimes why I "don't learn better" and not bring another pup into my wife and my lives as they just don't live long enough? However, life goes on and we have to just accept that our wonderful furry companions will probably precede us. My sincere condolences as I do know how strong the loss really is - I am guessing that probably virtually all of us on this board do. And we all join you in feeling the sadness of losing our friends and companions. Hoping that you will find another pup in your life soon. Thank you for sharing your wisdom in watching their actions closely to help in seeing problems. Again, my sincere regrets for your loss.
