How do you help your pet through mourning the loss of a dog friend?

My dog's best friend of 10 yeas was put to sleep two weeks ago. They lived next door to each other and played every day. They even took naps together almost every day. Our dog cries and looks for his friend still. How do we make the transition easier?
