I'm so sorry to hear it. Even when your pet is older it's never easy to deal with it. If you can make some kind of memorial to her in your garden it will help a lot on the future. Sending you kind thoughts.
When a pet dies it's very difficult and painful for quite some time as they are almost always by your side and suddenly it's quiet. We sometimes we take that kind of companionship for granted while they are wilth us.
I'm not an expert but I have been through this. It's very hard for me and I know I'm going to have to go through it again. I will suggest that you try to
fully understand that death is inevitable and life is to be celabrated. So rather than mourn the loss, try to celebrate the time you were able to spend with your dog. Spend some time contemplating your dogs life, as a puppy, and as an adult, both the endearing qualities and the mistakes. It will make you sad but will help you to understand how lucky you were to have this experience.
I'm sorry for your loss but I'm glad your able to have the experience of having, raising, training, and caring for your dog.:smile:
