Buck,

Have you been tested for celiac disease/ gluten sensitivity?

Check out the link in my signature... and scan the right bar for the page on diagnostics (near the top) and iron deficiency (near the bottom). There are also some good overview articles linked at the bottom of the main page.

B12 deficiency, iron deficiency, and other nutritional deficiency are common in celiac disease/gluten sensitivity, as is depression.

So sorry about the loss of you beloved Maggie. It took me a long while to readjust after losing my dog, too.
