    Anniversaries stir up lots of emotions, sad and happy. In our group meetings we try to remember the happier anniversaries like birthdays and adoption day. Of course, we remember the day of parting, too. I hope you look to the many happy years you shared. These pictures show what fun Yogee had wih you, and how much love he got from you. We never have enough time with them but I hope you find comfort knowing you shared a wonderful life. {HUGS} Toni

              What a little doll, Becky. How long were you and Gizzybutt together? How did you meet? How did you find that cute name? We’d love to hear more about your lives together, and I hope you find smiles before tears with your memories. {{HUGS}} Toni

                Isn’t is awful, Leslie, how empty and quiet the house is? It’s not unusual to “hear” or “see” your beloved Tanner. How did that make you feel – scared, or happy? Something else? Even knowing she was failing and that you helped her find comfort and peace, they are never with us as long as we’d like. I hope you find memories of the many happy times you shared bring you joy and comfort of your own. Please join our group meeting Thursday Feb. 16th to tell us about Tanner. An email with details will be sent next week. And please know I am very sorry for your loss. Toni

                          Tanner my 15yr old Lab went to Heaven 1 week ago today, wouldnt eat, unable to walk that day, and had 4 seizures during the nite. It was time to let her go. It is so quiet in the house, and so lonely. I think I still hear her at nite. So hard.

                            The quiet and emptiness were very hard for me, too. I suspect we all feel that way, especially if we live alone. Can you make some noise in the background, like upbeat music or a fun movie? Can you get out of the house for awhile each day? Have you thought of visiting a shelter where you can be around other animals (it might be too soon for that). Do you have friends and family you can call or visit with? You could write your thoughts and feelings in a journal. We have one in our Shop called Griffin’s Heart that is a guided journal and memento book that many have found helpful. https://www.faithfulfriends.com/shop/griffins-heart-pet-loss-book/

                              Does it ever get better? I still can’t believe it or function . The house is too quiet and i can’t stand it

                                When did you say goodbye? How long were you together? I think we ARE changed forever by our beloved pets, and think having loved them, and been loved by them, makes us better people – do you think?
                                How are you changed by your doggie ? What was her name? I hope you will join our group meeting Feb. 16th so we can hear more about your lives together. We’re here for you, Annia. {HUGS} Toni

                                  She was the sweetest dog in the world! I’m not the same ever since her passing though.

                                    Oh Jenn, Princess looks like a princess – what a darling girl. It hurts so much to say goodbye at any age and I hope you find some comfort knowing she is at peace now. Letting her go was a very loving gift and with time I hope you find smiles before tears with your memories of the many fun and loving times you shared. Please join our group meeting Thursday Feb. 16th at 7 EST (4 Pacific) to talk about Princess. An email with the details and link will be coming to your mailbox next week. And please Jenn, let us know how you are doing. {{HUGS}}
