I don't think there is anything to be gained by observing some mandatory period of mourning after the loss if a well-loved dog.
There IS an advantage to doing your research and avoiding impulsive decisions.
Personally, I've avoided getting a dog that is too similar to the one I've lost. I would be too tempted to make comparisons that are unfair to both dogs. But that's just me.
