That is sad indeed.  We lost a brittany when I was in high school and I cried over him.

When we lost a close pet, we took comfort in the following narrative given to us:

RAINBOW BRIDGE
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

I know how hard it is to loose a pet and companion.  Had to put our 16 year old yorky down two year's ago.  Still think of her.  after a year we got a westie and she has helped fill the hole in our heart.  I guess it was a good then because the westie saved my wife's life a month ago.  She woke me up at 4am barking and had to call 911 my wife's blood sugar was down to 22.  Every thing is fine now.

It is amazing how some dogs can detect low blood sugar in humans. You're wife has a special friend in that pup. Glad to hear she is fine.
