I don't think I'm a 'tough guy' or brute, but really don't see why an employer needs to pay for me to grieve a pet.
I did the same thing last summer when we lost our golden retriever. I actually found work to be a great distraction. Having said that, I won't take shots at people who need some time off. A few days seems reasonable to me.
