No matter how old you are, or how long you've had dogs, it's still gut wrenching to lose a dog, BUT, it is, unfourtunately, part of the game ! Blaming the bloke who took you out won't realy help, you will meet pleanty of dicks in the dog game ! Have a think about it when you are feeling a bit better, and get another dog and start again ! Good luck to you
Cheers.
