Shit.
No more pain for Tucker, helps some, but can't fill the void of a lost buddy.

Aw, man. I have been through what you are going through. It's never easy to lose a member of your family.
I had a hand-raised baby kitty (my favorite) get run over by a car. And I held her little body in my hands, and I wondered "What is life, anyway?" I was unable to deal with the concept of death, at that moment. I also had a male chow (also hand-raised) that I found dead, in the yard, next to a dead snake. He passed away in EPIC BATTLE, and he took the life of his enemy as well, protecting the territory he was sworn to protect. Looking back on these events now, it makes me think how caring for these little things is a prerequisite to eventually having little human babies of your own. Just imagine... you'll have that experience someday. And you'll say "This is the love of my life. This is the reason I exist." This is life. You love, you lose. But there is more and greater love for you to experience. We all share these things. We are all the same. I'm sorry for your loss.

Damn, I'm sorry man. I've lost more than one member of my family and I feel your pain.
Mourn all you want, until the mourning's done. Then go get a new dog to love. No one will ever replace Tucker, or any other lost pet, but they somehow find their own place in your heart to inhabit.

I'm sorry for your loss, fresh. It'll hurt like hell for quite a while.

As someone going through a very confused grieving period myself, I really feel for you.
As others have said here, it does hurt - it's supposed to. Let yourself mourn him, he was a big part of your life and was around longer than some of your human relationships. Love to you and your family.

Let's get real here folks. If fresh really considered Tucker to be his "utility", maybe Tucker is better off in doggy heaven.

Sorry to hear about your loss. He looks like a wonderful dog. I have had cockers in the past and loved them.
I know it is like losing a child. They become such a special part of our lives but their life spans are so very short. At least he was loved while he was here. and after in your memories
