    Thanks for all the support guys.. it really means a lot to me. A lot of my friends are calling me to make sure I'm alright every day now...

    My dog will get cremated my parents just told me.. in Udine, Italy...

            I'm sorry Gian. It's never a good feeling when a loved one dies

            However, there's usually good to balance out the bad. Back in '94, we had a Grayhound named Legacy that had an inoperable tumor. He was in a lot of pain so we decided to have him put down. Three days later, a woman brought a stray Whippet that she thought was a Grayhound to the dogtrack where my father was Racing Coordinator. Sally's been a great part of our family ever since.

                You can replace the dog but not the memories you had with the dog. My dog died of cancer to but that was 10 years ago. I have not replaced her only cause when the die it hurts.

                  Unfortunately that is an occupational hazard with pets as their lifespans are far shorter than ours - maybe one should avoid having a pet at all if it is ultimately going to cause that much pain?

                    but on the flipside you dont get to enjoy the days of pleasure with the pet you have.

                        However you say that your dog died ten years ago but haven't replaced it because it hurt.

                        It seems to me that the pain of having your pet die outweighed the pleasure you derived from it - otherwise you would have got another one.

                        Hence the point I made about perhaps not getting one in the first place...

                          no I stated I havent replaced the dog I have two cats now only because We live on the 3 rd floor and dont want to walk a dog down two flights of stairs to let it go do his biz.

                            I'm not getting another pet unfortunately. I can't. I can't get attached to someone this much and have to go through the pain of losing again...

                            I have a boyfriend, and I'm not comparing him to a pet (no lol).. but to as a mutual partner and friend.. if anything I'm going to get even more attached to him after this..

                                I live in apartment. A doberman in a studio apartment.. that's not good... especially when the apartment management forbids pets. My parents also don't want anymore pets...
