Ever heard of a dog grieving itself to death?

I believe that some of them do.

This happened to me a couple of years ago and it is spooky. I had a red cur female that I hunted 12 seasons before I lost her to cancer. She had been operated on twice before for it but this time it was too far gone. I burried her in my dog graveyard.

Within a week a red cur dog came up to the house and I fed it. It hung around for a few days. The wierd part was that it slept on Reba's grave. I went over to it one time and looked it right in the eyes and I swear to God they looked just like Reba's.

Then it dissappeared just as quick as it come up and I never seen it again. I will always think it was ole Reba coming back one more time to tell me everything was going to be OK.
