Sorry to hear about this Pat.
I know what you're going through, as a couple of weeks ago I lost my cat Rudy who I had in my life for 16 years.
As I do, just remember the good times you had with Otis, and know that you gave him a great life.

Sorry for your loss Pat:
Went through the same thing myself last year. Bailey, my dog of 17 years had to be put to sleep as her old legs couldn't carry her anymore. I was devastated as the two of us went everywhere together. My comprimise was that I had her creamated and I spead her ashes around the loop that we always walk at my cottage on Lake Winnapausaukee in NH that overlooks the lake. Now I can go for our walk and talk with her when I miss her and she's always with me. Got a new little guy now, Arlo, who helps to keep me occupied.............very occupied. Found that the house is just too quiet without a pooch following me around. This is one of my favorite pix of my old girl and my daughter........

It's terrible when they are gone. Mine is being diagnosed right now with what they think is Cushings disease. Hopefully he will just have to go on medication but your loss makes it scarier, beleive me I know what you're feeling. Always remember though that you gave your dog the best life he could have had, that'sthe motto we live by with our dog.

I feel your loss Pat - we lost our 3 year old black lab (Tiki) to liver failure about 2 years ago. She was perfectly healthy in every way until her liver just quit for no known reason. We did everything we could for her, but to no avail - less than 3 weeks after diagnosis we had to put her to sleep. She was the most wonderful and lovable dog I've ever had, she was a big goofy 80 lb Lab who thought she was a lap dog. I am actually getting a little misty-eyed just typing this and remembering her. I'm 43 years old and I cried my eyes out at work when I had to make the final call to the vet. It's one thing when the dog has had a good full life, it's another to have her stolen away from you. You'll get through it. When it starts to hurt just a little less, go get yourself a puppy. It won't be a replacement, but it will be someone new to share life with and help take your mind off it.

I agree a puppy is the way to go. The perfect dog is waiting for you to rescue it. It will not be the same as Otis but just as special in its own way.
