As many know, Sammy was supposed to become queen of the house. My yellow lab, Sophie, is almost 14. She won't make it thru another winter. My other chocolate is buried in the backyard. I expected to lose a friend, but never thought it would be Sammer.

My boy was so strong, which I am not so sure is good. He has seen Dad cry more than a few times(I am a mess at most kids movies, hallmark commercials, etc - usually happy stuff) but he has only seen me emotionally upset at a few funerals and the loss of the dogs. Good opportunity to explain that it is fine for men to cry. Tough answering questions that I really don't have answers to.

Thanks all for your thoughts. There will be another pup in the future but it's not in the cards right away. Probably will look for another Choc so if anyone has a lead on good female in a few mths, drop me a pm. Again, thanks guys, this helped and my condolences to all who have had similar losses.
