Take your time. Honor the memory of your friend, and allow yourself to grieve. I believe that when it's time, your next dog will find you, and then you'll know it's time. I'm so sorry for your loss.

That is exactly it. No puppy ever replaces your old dog. They are a new love in your life. I always try to have my dogs in pairs. When 1 dies the other will go into a deep depression, until you get them a little brother or sister. The bond that the old dog makes with the pup is special and life long. He is a really good looking pup BTW.
