Thank you so much for all your messages of encouragement, and empathy. Perdita, his sister, mourned a lot, became timid and clingy. So she now has a new companion, Cody Bear, who came from Yorkie Rescue (where older dogs sometimes don't easily get new owners). He is 7 and fitting in very well. I'm being treated for PTSD (the sensory and emotional power of the impact when Pongo was killed (allied to previous and recent events) led to an accumulated stress situation, and was a tipping point). The nightmares and flashbacks are reducing - so getting there! I'm running the HR module of their MSc in Project Management for a local University. It's proving very insightful to guage the differences between academic and "real world" business approaches, and the different value that they each provide. NEW
