It took my family about a year to get another dog. We rescued our Puppy from a rescue in Long Island. My Beagle like Matts, was with me for about 14 years, and had a tumor grow in her stomach and she stopped eating, eventually causing her to starve to death (we believe) in her sleep. But she went natural so it wasn't that bad. It was defenitly different without a dog around the house. But since my mom does not work due to a heart condition she has the time to raise a puppy as a third child since neither my sister or I are home during the day.
