Question: how long does it take to get over a dog death?
Answer: Stay home, don't work, don't talk about anything you don't want to talk about. You can keep your dog home for up to 1-2 days: when rigor mortis fades and the body starts to soften again (after about 3 days) it's truly time to do the funeral. Sharing the Pain and Grief. Talk about the loss and keep talking.
