I understand your pain. We lost a beloved pet 11 yrs ago.
We were devastated.
We decided to honor her memory by going to the pound and saving another furbaby. We have had Missy now for 11 yrs and she has been a delight.
don’t think for a minute that dogs in a pound don’t know what happens if they don’t find a home. We got her at PetsMart after a local pound had brought her there for adoption.
When we went to our local pound to arrange for her papers, she cried and was so upset, you could tell she was afraid of going back to a pound.
Think about it.....another dog might help your family honor your dog’s memory and make new memories with your new pet.

5 years ago I had a 15 year old miniature white poodle that had been having little fall down attacks for a short time ... the vet said she had kidney trouble and thought it could be treated, which we did, I started making her food from a recipe. In about a month she fell over in a spasm again, the vet again wanted to treat her. I had actually brought her in thinking it was kinder to put her to sleep than for her to be scared. That very night she died a 5:30 in the morning. .........................

We had a burial and prayer over her. and a couple of hours later, we decided to go see if there was one similar to her in size and breed at the SPCA,

There was! in a separate room off to the side was an 18 month old minarture poodle, this one is black. We felt God had him waiting there for us. He is a delight, and we love him very much. No dog replaces another dog; but there are dogs that we could love and rescue, and they are happy to have a home and people that love them. They sound the alarm when needed, and are excellent company.

VERY HAPPY WE DID THAT.
