person A: People caring is good but i will say i have never cared as much for a creature than my first dog.
person B: I can totally relate. Dogs are better than most people. What kid of dog was it?
person A: He was a Dachshund lived til he was 18. I miss him still. 
person B: I'm sorry. Dogs take a piece of our hearts when they go. 18 years is a very long life for a dog_comma_ I bet you had a lot of great times together!
