This day last week, I had two dogs. My beautiful Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - Bono, and my Jack Russell Terrier - Coveu. They were devoted to each other. Bono was Coveu's big brother, and they looked out for each other. My lovely Bono passed away on Monday, and its ripped my heart in two. And Coveu misses Bono dreadfully ...

I've been advised to get another dog, if only for company for Coveu who is very lonely, especially as my fiancé and I are out at work all day, 5 days a week.

Today I looked through the newspapers and saw various types of dogs; I phoned a lady about a whippet pup, and when I was half way to her house to view the pups, I burst into tears, and went home instead. Bono hasn't been dead a week, and there I was, off to get another, as though he had merely been a broken ornament which needed replacing, and not the loyal companion, and devoted friend I've had since I was a 14-year-old child. His ashes haven't even been returned to me yet ...

How could I have been so thoughtless to be going to get another dog, when Bono was alive this day last week ... ? Is there anyone else out there who feels as I do? I feel so conflicted and ashamed ...

Coveu is African literally for scar, but it means permanent ... It's supposed to be spelt Kovu. But I changed it to make it sound more exotic ...

Thanks from the responses. I appreciate it.
