The dog left behind after a loss..

it is very hard for our dogs to lose a member of the family too.  here is hoping everyone starts the process of healing soon...

I am sorry to hear about the sadness in your family.
 
Give your kid lots of attention.  Our prayers are with you.
 

I'm sorry  for your loss.  I hope she feels better soon.

Marty, I am sad to hear that, but not surprised. Before Babe I had a cat. Mr. M'ow went to the bridge 13 month before she did at the age of 17, and both Babe and my other cat Smokey Joe went through a depression stage. I know some people don't believe it, but I do. Good luck, and hugs to Biscotti.

My hound mourned for Dancer particularly hard, even though they were never really playmates.  They did share the living room for quite a while, though, when she was confined to her ex pen during the nights (for safety after a bout of vestibular syndrome).  It's hard to watch, but they do come through it.  <<>> to Biscotti.

Poor Biscotti - Pofi and Mia would come to play and make her feel better if they could.
 
I have no doubt she is reacting to the loss of her pack mate - give her lots of extra lovin' - hugs for you both.

Poor Biscotti. I'm sending her ear rubs and booty scratches.

Just like us, each dog deals with loss in his or her own way.  Biscotti will come around when she's ready.  Until then give her a good ear rub from me & my gang.

My condolences to you all for your loss.  My Lhasa Apso mourned the loss of my Shih Tzu for the longest time.  It's not an easy thing to lose a friend, even for a dog.  Your dog will get through it in her own time and way.  Until then, just spend some extra time with her.

Im so sorry about Winnie. 
 
When Kayla died Minnie wasnt aware of what was going on.  She sleeps with my parents and DH and I just ran out the door with Kayla to go to the Evet.  We came back with Kayla in a box... I put her blanket around her and her toys in there and set her right outside the back door.  Of course we didnt sleep, and when it was a decent time we took her in for the necropsy and sent her off to be creamated. 
 
Minnie first sort of realized that Kayla was gone, then that she wasnt coming back... it was very sad for her and I always wish I would have let her see Kayla before leaving the house that day so she would have closure.
 
Minnie started staying in our bed where Kayla slept, which she never did.... and eventually quit doing that, but I guess it was her way of grieving.  You could also tell she was constanly walking through the house just looking for her.  Bones were not nearly as fun, and going out in the yard just wasnt the same... its hard for them too.
