    Dealing with losing a dog?

    I'm 55 and have been a dog whisperer ever since I was a kid; I just get them for some reason.

    Despite that I never actually owned one until the first time about 10 years ago when we got a Golden puppy and named her Stella.

    Saturday night she unexpectedly died in my arms (burying her out at camp at midnight under a full moon on Halloween weekend was not a treat) after almost 10 years of being a constant companion, hiking partner, perfect friend, etc.

    I've buried too many people over the years and have carried far more than my share of caskets but I can't recall a time when I've ever been this rattled about losing someone. Half the time I want to sit on the couch with a thousand yard stare and the other half I want to beat somebody senseless for looking at me sideways.

    How in the hell do y'all deal with this ****?

     

    Think of all the good times together.
