Have a cocktail, , a few tears and make a small donation to a shelter in honor of your pups life. He gave you 14 years of happiness, you gave him 14 years of happiness. That's rare.
Hang in there buddy. It hurts like hell for a bit and then you'll smile because he changed your life forever.
I know Shitzu's pretty well, they are amazing little guys.

Give it time. It gets better.
Doesn't feel like it and the death of an animal has a lot to it but given time things get better.
The lesson ive learned is that often times when we have the animal even tho there are a lot of positive caring for the animal properly takes effort and time. We often think that life would be easier with out this burden but it's worth it because of the positives.
But once the animal dies even with out the time and effort put into the animal life ends up being harder some how. take care, one step at a time

I am sorry for your loss, bens.
Look up Rainbow Bridge, it may help. I hope if offers you some comfort.
I hope there will be a cremation, and that some ashes can be scattered/buried/whatever. Some can be put in a place of remembrance.
After enough time to heal, I do hope your family can save another worthy, loving life from a shelter, and that the joy of having a pet can come back to your family......

Did you have your dog cremated?
Did you keep his / her ashes ?
Nice to keep your Dogs ashes in travel containers that fit on your key ring.
Nothing will replae him but getting another dog is the right idea in due time.
Before you know it he will have a personality all his own.
It wont be the same but thats ok
