          • Betsy, I am so very sorry for your losses. This is just heartbreaking and it is understandable that you are suffering such pain. Atumn was a huge support for you and for that, you must be grateful? Betsy, our pets are only on loan to us, never for long enough. In our heads we know one day we will part, at great cost, but also we treasure the lives we shared. I hope you can find your way to remembering Autumn with smiles before tears. And I want to thank you for extending your own sympathy to others here. That means so much, and I hope you find some comfort in reaching out. Betsy, please, tell us more. It helps to “get it out” and our kind community is here to walk this journey with you. Here is a {{HUGE HUG}} for you. 💔Toni
            • Thank you so much

                      Thank you for the warm welcome and the invite to the group. It’s very hard to lose a pet. Mandy wasn’t just a dog, she was family. It’s only been 2 days and I’m still hurting a lot. I went to give my son’s dog a treat earlier and I automatically grabbed 2 then realized that I only needed 1. I cried. I tried to join the zoom meeting but I got confused on the time. I’m in central time zone so I was about 20 minutes late. Sorry about that.

                            • Cathy, my sincere apology for not responding sooner. I’m dealing with a pet situation myself, and understand how you might feel “guilty” for something that probably was never in your control. Please tell us more details about tbear. It may help us understand what happened. And Cathy, it is so very painful to lose a beloved pet in any fashion, but please…do not try to “blame” yourself. Our pets are always only “on loan” to us (never for long enough) and I have to think something was going on with tbear that was not in your control. Please, tell us more. 💔Toni
                              • Tbear was a shitz tzuwho was about 4 yrs old very playful and loved outdoors . The day before he got sick he was playful no signs of being sick by the next morning he was sick and throwing up . No energy wouldn’t eat but would drink water he seemed weak . I was gonna take him to a vet the next morning if he didn’t feel better but he passed around 5. That morning . I blame myself because I should have got him to a vet the day he was sick . I feellike if I had took him that day he would still be here . Tbear loved to catch mice he would eat the little ones he caught . I’m confused as y he suddenly got sick over night and died the next day . I’m depressed can’t sleep can’t handle him being gone I’m sick at my stomach been going thru it bad
                                • Cathy, I am so sorry for your loss Tbear 💔

                                    Lynn, one of the hardest parts of loving a pet is watching them age or fail. It can be hard to know when it is the right time to let them find a peaceful passing, but I have found saying goodbye to be a good thing for them, it’s when I come home that starts the grief. Do you have any others or was it just Jazzy and her brother? Do you have family and friends to help you? I am so sorry and will be thinking of you, and hope to see you tonight in our group. {BIG HUGS} Toni

Please continue to let us know how you are doing, and do try to join us this evening. Toni

                                        Hi my name is Suzann and I\’m new to this community. I lost my sweet beagle Mandy Tuesday afternoon (10/17/23) and my heart is broken. She was my best friend for 10 awesome years. She was the sweetest dog I\’ve ever had. I miss her terribly and I will never forget her.

                                        Sorry for so many pictures, but it\’s so hard to pick just a few.

                                        • Suzann, welcome to our community.

                                              • I was sorry to miss you, too, Suzann. We meet every third Thursday at the same time and the link is always under “Events”. Mandy was clearly a family member, and probably everyone’s favorite, (who is the young man holding her in his lap?) and that contributes to the depth of the pain in parting. This is the hard part of opening our homes and hearts – saying goodbye. We know in our heads that one day we will, but our hearts are just broken. May I encourage you to think of the many fun, funny and loving times you and Mandy shared, to lend a bit of comfort that she lived her best life with you, and for that, you can be happy. Please let us know how you are doing, Suzann. We’re thinking of you with sympathy and undertsing. 🤗Toni
                                                • I’ll definitely be there for the next meeting. Yeah Mandy was definitely our favorite. The young man holding her on his lap is my son Steven who will be 23 on Nov 1st. Saying goodbye is definitely the hardest part about loving a pet. I just hope she knows how much she was loved and she was happy with us. Every time I’d leave even just to check the mail when I came back in she was so excited to see me. She’d jump and run around squealing and whining like only a beagle can. I have so many pictures and videos of her and that does bring me some comfort. I just miss petting her and snuggling with her.
                                                  • Suzann, here is an idea for you, and Steven – write a note, or notes, to Mandy telling her how you feel, what you think, and are doing. Then, write back From Mandy what you think, and feel, she would want you to know. It may sound silly, but it helps us communicate, and gain perspective that can help ease some of the pains. Let us know if you try it, and how it makes you feel. I hope it helps you to know we are here for, and with you, with empathy and care.🤗💔Toni
