I am really sorry to hear this. Reminds me of what happened to me 6years ago. My family dog, a gorgeous German Shepard, died less than 3 months after my brother did. Sometimes, I will miss the dog more than my brother! It's crazy how connected to your pets you get.

Now I have a ball of love. He's not even a dog. Just a ball of love. I got him back in October after being 5years without a pet.

Anyway, I'm really sorry to hear this and feel what you are going through. I'm open to talk if you so want to. I know a bit about pet grieving, sometimes a little perspective on that helps too.

Someone else in the thread said "no more cats." I currently agree. Did you originally think "no more dogs"?

I always knew I'd get another dog. However, I wasn't going to do it right away and I didn't. Not until 5years later when I fell in love with the pile of fluff I have now.
