Superbee,
There's a new buddy waiting to be adopted at a shelter, when you are ready.
Over the decades, I've adopted two shelter dogs (one at a time). Both lived long, full lives, and the friendliest dogs you could find. But both are gone now, with Bridgette being put to sleep about a year ago. Never a good day when that happens. She's still my screen saver. I'm still not ready to adopt a dog yet, but we adopted a stray cat that really 'adopted us' when he showed by our house about 5 years ago. So he's my pseudo dog for now.
