It really hurts I'm sure. It's one of the main reasons I no longer keep any kind of pets. I got just too sad and tired of my favorite pets either dying or otherwise disappearing from my life too early.
My favorite dog ever just disappeared one day after about 12 years and I never saw him again. The next dog I had was when I lived completely alone for about 8 years and she too disappeared. Finally my last pet, a dumb old cat got sick and stayed sick for a few years until she eventually starved herself to death.
I finally realized I couldn't go through it again. I get just too attached to them like family only to have them just vanish and I end up completely bummed out for way too long. I still miss them all, even the pets I had as a kid, but I can't and won't go through it again..I'm getting just too old to sit and wait for my companions to vanish before I do. My last real companion is Sylvia and she's 10 years older than me. I hope she outlives me, but at the same time I don't ever want her to have to go through the same thing I dread.. Losing my only real companion in life..
I'm really sorry for your loss man.. Keep your pooch in your heart forever.. I know you will.
