people caring is good but i will say i have never cared as much for a creature than my first dog . i can totally relate . dogs are better than most people . what kid of dog was it ? he was a dachshund lived til he was 18 . i miss him still . i 'm sorry . dogs take a piece of our hearts when they go . 18 years is a very long life for a dog , i bet you had a lot of great times together !
