Miss my dog

Is it wrong to get another dog soon after a loss? I miss the companionship of my old dog? I don'[t want to replace the personality of the one that passed, just miss having a dog around to take care of and love.

Not at all. We lost our "almost eleven" year old in November. It was a quick illness and we were very upset (still are). I did start looking for another dog within days of her dying. We do have a fourteen year old dog but the one who died was our walking companion. The fourteen year old can not hear or see so she doesn't go on walks. Anyway, we waited to even take walks without her. Found out a pup we want was born two days after our deceased dog's birthday. I am taking that as a sign (I hope) We plan to pick up the new one next month. Cross fingers and hope she is a good dog.
