When pets experience a sudden change, it upsets the balance in their lives, just as it does in ours. The loss of another dog (whether it's a "sister" dog in the house, or the dog next door who moves away) or of a beloved human (your son or daughter who has grown and left home) can be a large emotional hurdle for a dog.
Sometimes the other dog or dogs in the household grieve so deeply that they stop eating, jeopardizing their own health. This is more likely to happen if the dogs had never been separated. If any of your dogs react to a loss so strongly they become ill, take them to the vet. The pack has undergone a major transition, and it will take some time to adjust.

∙ 15y agoYes, dogs do mourn in their own way--although dogs don't conceive or understand "death" per se. Instead, a dog will mourn the absence of their owners (for whatever reason) and exhibit signs of depression for a time. However, after a week or so in a new, patient, loving environment most dogs will adapt to new owners and continue to lead happy lives.
