I am so sorry to hear about your puppy. We just got our puppy Sasha (Sophie was a name we were considering) a couple months ago. I know I'd sob like a child if something like that happened to her. I am so glad for you about the generous gifts you received from the forums here. While I'm new here, it seems you're a real winner in everyone's book. I saw the outpour of support everyone had offered. It's really an amazing thing how many kind and selfless people are left in the world. It's just sad they aren't the ones you meet the most. I think it funny that many people portray hunters as savage (while there are savage people that kill animals, I wouldn't consider them hunters), but the nicest people I personally know, the kind you can count on what they say, are all people I know from hunting.
