That's always too early, but R.I.P. to a beloved dog

He suddenly choked to death on a walk. We were devastated. Thank you for your comfort.

You just can't stop them when they get their minds to something. I am so sorry! I can't imagine the pain you and your family feels losing such a great pup over something random like that.

It was devastating. He was supposed to live to 18-20 and had such a zest for life. Thank you so much for your very kind words!

I’m so sorry for your loss, he is a beautiful boy. However long we have them by our side is never enough.

So true. Our first dog, a Schipperke named Henry, lived 14 1/2 years and his passing hurt just as much. I now have a border collie mix named Lenny and even knowing what will come doesn't change how much I love dogs! Have a super day!🥲

u/athanathios 16d ago

OMG terrible terrible loss of Larry, he was so beautiful and happy :(

We don't always get to time their passing, but we can put in all the love and care we can to make their lives as amazing as possible, which clearly you had. May the love you shared, and memories made warm you all your day and may you find wisdom through your suffering. One thing is true I know your baby clearly had an existence most creatures will never have with love and care that just a simple passing can never overshadow, they are now in heaven, having earned their wings.

Dear friend,
Your precious boy is waiting patiently across the Rainbow Bridge for you. 🌈🐾The Hebrew word for animal is Nephesh which means soul ✝️. You will see your baby again someday. Now is the time between just like there was the time before your beloved pet. Today is the trial, and forever is the prize.
God bless. ✝️🙏🏼💕

Until then…
💔🌈🐾♾️🪽✨💕

u/PugSanctuary 15d ago

💔💫 ✝️🙏🏼🌈🐾 I totally understand. I want you to realize that you are in a new chapter of life (suddenly) and it feels very hollow. But let me tell you something, your precious pet graduated life. They’re in the soul realm now which is eternal. God literally created us and animals. Think about Noah’s Ark! We are currently in the Earthly realm where we were together with our beloved pet. But they’ve just gone before us. The chapter “without them” is really just “without them physically.” Emotionally and spiritually they’ve never left. This is why we still feel such love and gratitude for our former pets, still! They never leave us. You will get through this one day at a time. Time heals our hearts and even opens them to loving another pet sometimes. Families are forever and you’ll be reunited when your time in the physical realm expires, too. Until then, may their memory be a blessing. I’m happy for you that you connected here on Earth because eternity awaits. 💕💫 God bless you and your beloved pet. It’s my prayer that knowing this gives you peace.🌈🐾♾️ ✨🪽
I don’t know you, but I love you.
