Stay strong Ashley ❤️. I can understand the pain as I lost a dear dog last year

You can’t. But you learn to live with it. All you can do is be kind to every animal you encounter, in their memory, if not for nothing else.

I am sorry to hear about your loss. Losing my pets has been the hardest things I have had to go through over the years. I don’t usually cry but I bawled my eyes out every time one of my furry friend passed away. I just tell myself they’re in a better place. All animals go to heaven.

Sorry if i sohnd insensitive but why do indians have dogs for pets when there are plenty of them roaming on streets? How are they useful?

I can understand lonely white people keeping them for company. But indians??? There are 1.4 billions of us. Why do we need dogs in the first place? If at all, we need to get rid of a lot of them creating nuisance in the streets.

You could perhaps adopt some of them, to make yourself feel better.

You are a jerk!

Yes absolutely. Thank you for your kind words. ❤️

I’m so sorry for your loss Ashley. I’ve lost a few beloved pets over the years. Honestly, there will never be a time when you won’t miss him, but it will get easier with time. Let yourself grief and give yourself time. As much time as you need. There’s no right amount of time or a right kind of way to grief. You do what works for you.

When I lost my cat the (the first fur baby I lost) the vet gave me this poem and I found it emotionally helpful.


Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

One of the reasons I don't keep pets is because losing them is so devastating. It totally impaired by mental health when I was about 8-9 ish and none of the adults around me seemed to care nearly as much... so it felt like I was grieving by myself. Cuz I wasn't sharing it with anyone around me!

I'm very sorry for your loss and wish you lots of comfort. ❤️

Sorry to hear for your loss . Stay strong .

When my grandfather died , his pet dog also died after few days . It didn’t eat anything n left the world . I am not pet person. I feel like animals are free souls like humans as all are living beings n let them live freely n independently like humans live with freedom on their own will n master on their own .
