Baby was so teeny and adorable, Lisa. I have tears with you, looking at her picture. How old was she? How long were you together? How did you meet? I really want to get to know her, and about your lives together if you’ll share that with us. Do you have people or pets around you to help you through this? I found a stuffed animal I could hold helped me. We are here for and with you, Lisa. We get it and I hope you join our group meeting July 20th to share more. (Links to the meetings are under “Events” on the right side of this page). Sending you a {BIG HUG}. Toni -

For many of us this 4th of July was the first without our beloved companions. We didn’t have to worry about the fireworks noise, and soothing them. On the good side – they didn’t have to be scared by it all. I just got home from a quick trip (the first in a loooong time since I wouldn’t leave my babies at home without me), and it’s weird coming in knowing no one is here to greet me. 🙁 I still find toys and little by little am putting, or giving, them away. I’m not crying, I am just missing them. In some ways it’s easier not having a pet to care for, and I know one day I will open my home and heart to another, probably several. Until then, I am finding joy with my memories, alongside the bits of sorrow that linger. Overall, I am just so darn happy to have had them in my life and that they had a loving home with me. I am touched by every post here, and I read every one. The support, encouragement and kindness in our Community is overwhelming and I am sincerely grateful we are all here. With {{BIG HUGS}} to ALL. Toni

Toni, first 4th without babies, I always had something to greet me when I came home. I miss that, don’t you? Blessings to you. You made an animal feel important. Here’s to making you feel important. With hopes you will love again.

What a wonderful, charming and touching story, Constance. Thank you very much for sharing with us, and please know you are very welcome to continue to do so. I had to chuckle at your creative sweater making, and sleeping in the fuzzy slipper.🤗. Is it typical for tiny dogs to be hypoglycemic, or that breed? That’s tough to manage and you did a great job caring for darling little Gizmo. I am so sorry for your loss, and hope you find more smiles than tears with your lovely, loving and fun memories. Please join us Thursday July 19th for our group meeting. I’d love to meet you. Toni -

@constancem Hi Constance. Welcome to our caring community. Please tell us about your life with, is it Gizmo?

My lil tiny baby, Gizmo the Gremlin was my everything, my reason for living, my heart! I had NEVER had a tea-cup version of any dog before, and he was so small that he seemed to not be “real”. At 8 weeks he weighed 10 oz, and an entire meal was 7 pieces of puppy food! He was like having a stuffed animal toy that came to life! He was so fiesty & happy & loved to cuddle and be babied. He would climb into my fuzzy slipper to take his naps and several times we thought he was lost because he was so small that we literally couldn’t find him, so we got a kitty collar with bells to keep up with him! He finally got to his adult weight of a whoppibg 2.2 lbs & 6 inches tall! He went everywhere that I went, as he was my ESA, & he had hypoglycemia so I couldn’t leave him alone. Unfortunately, at age 10, he was sick with a upper respiratory infection and was not eating well. He had a bad seizure that he had when he was hypoglycemic and I was in the bathtub. When I got out he had passed away from his illness. Im beyond devestated still…

Please, please…take steps to pTonirotect and comfort your pets this firework season. Keep them in a quiet room, speak soothingly to them, distract them with favorite toys and games. And if it’s hot, keep them cool and well watered. Toni

Romeo was terrified of fireworks and I had to sedate him. This is the first 4th of July without him. He doesn’t have to be afraid anymore. 😞 💔

Hi Maureen, I never had to sedate Lulu, but it is the first
4th of July without her. I sure do miss her quirky little ways. So how are you doing? I hope things are a little brighter on this July 5th. I’m thinking of you. Take care brony

Randy, It is good to hear from you no matter what amount of time passes. I think of you and Remzo and hope you’ll send some more pictures of him. We’d love to see him now. You say it perfectly – the empty sadness. It’s not the acute pain of parting, but a lingering ache that comes when we think of their end of life. It sounds as if you are also able to recall the happy and fun times with Ranger and Axel, and that’s a good way to honor them. You and/or your wife are always welcome to join our monthly group meeting the third Thursday of each month. The links are under “Events”. I look forward to hearing more from you, especially if you open your home and hearts to anothet lucky pup! Sending you my best wishes, and hoping to see more of Renzo. Toni -

Yep, gotcha Lori. My Beauty Girl (aka Deanna) sadi goodbye Feb, 2022 – 16 months ago – and tonight I felt again her absence. Walter is gone two weeks now and I am still happy he had a comfortable passing, but we do, and should, and will, always miss them. I find great joy in knowing I gave them their best lives full of love , and I hope you do, too. Toni - Load More
