Awww, I'm sorry to hear that.
I'm an avid dog lover myself.
I was devastated after my last dog passed away. They truly become full fledged family members and their passing is no less mournful. Three colleagues of mine all had German Shepherd dogs and all three died of cancer. That seems to be an illness peculiar to that breed.
The best thing to do is to get another dog. I swore I never would, but I ended up getting a Shepherd mix breed, rescued from an animal shelter.
I have to admit that I'm glad I did.
