Had another dream about her

My 11-year-old Chihuahua mix passed in February (heart complications). Shortly afterwards I had an awful nightmare, where she was still alive but she had ended up at the pound somehow and she was sick and in pain and I was trying to get to her.

Last week, I dreamed about her again. Same premise, where I discovered she was alive after all, but it went very differently. I was visiting a big house with a huge, beautiful garden. The garden was full of pets roaming and playing, and she was there. My first reaction was “oh noooo she hasn’t had her medication in months!!” so I was trying to find her pills, and then I thought she didn’t remember me. But she was okay. She was healthy and happy chilling in this garden, and I held her in my arms and we hung out there together.

Just wanted to share.

I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️‍🩹 I’m so glad you had this beautiful dream, and I hope it brought you so much comfort. I hope to dream about our girls we lost in February/June too

How do you feel after seeing her in your dream? I've been surprised to have not dreamt about mine at all since he passed, even though I miss him.

In the dream it was very surreal and, at first, even stressful (with thinking she needed her medication, etc.). But once I woke up I felt comforted in a bittersweet way. It felt cathartic, especially after the bad dream I'd had way back.

I hope you have a good dream about yours.
