Sorry your dog died. I still mourn one who died 45 years ago. "Brothers and sisters, I bid you beware/of giving your heart to a dog to tear." And yet, as Kipling noted, how can we NOT love a good dog?
You might consider a cat, they're less work than a dog (but see our discussion "Cats" as to whether cats are good pets for people like us). But if you think you can safely get a cat, there are many, many nice ones in shelters!

Dear Jannie, I , too, feel very sorry for your loss of dear Molly. I think I understand how you are feeling, having had to put to sleep our 2 Golden retrievers & many beloved cats as well. It takes a while to get past the intense grief & home doesn't feel the same any more. My late DH & I both "filled up" many times , talking about them, after they had to cross the Bridge.
I wish you peace & acceptance over this , but I think it will be a while before you can feel that. Maybe someday, you could decide whether to adopt a somewhat senior dog or a cat for the company. It wouldn't replace your Molly, but could be a new love again.
Please accept my sincere condolences for Molly's passing.
Love, catcat

I am so sorry for your loss. Take comfort in the fact that you have her a wonderful life. Maybe when you are ready you can honor her memory by adopting an already trained dog from a shelter who will need you as much as you'll need her. All the best, Grammea(Helen)
