Wow, I have silently followed your thread since the beginning. Having a tank wipe out is awful and something I can relate to. Throw in the loss of other beloved pets and well it sucks the life out of you. It really does, but as much as it hurts you have to remember the good, the triumphs, the satisfaction, and all the peace and contentment it brings.

Loss is always hard, and it's natural to have very mixed feelings about continuing when your hit with utter frustratingly depressing situations.

Pick yourself up and take it slow. You will find the joy in the hobby again, you will realize the happy times with your dogs more than the loss.

Keep your chin up! It will get better.
