MartyT Posted September 25, 2020 Report Share Posted September 25, 2020 Sharing a post found on Facebook: They tell you not to cry. They tell you that it's just a dog, not a human being. They tell you that the pain will be over. They tell you that the animals don't know that they have to die. They tell you that it's important not to let him suffer. They tell you that you can have another one. They tell you it's going to happen to you. They tell you that there is more pain. But they don't know how many times you've looked into your dog’s eyes. They don't know how many times you and your dog have looked into darkness alone. They don't know how many times your dog was the only one who was by your side. They don't know how much fear you have at night when you wake up with your grief. They don't know how many times your dog slept near you. They don't know how much you've changed since the dog has become a part of your life. They don't know how many times you hugged him when he was sick. They don't know how many times you've acted like you didn't see his hair getting whiter. They don't know how many times you've talked to your dog, the only one who really hears. They don't know that it was just your dog who knew you were in pain. They don't know what it feels like to see your old dog trying to get up to say hello. They don't know that if things went wrong, the only one who didn't go is your dog. They don't know that your dog trusts you every moment of his life, even in the last. They don't know how much your dog loved you and how it is enough for him to be happy, because you loved him. They don't know that crying for a dog is one of the most noble, significant, true, purest and warmest things you can do. They don't know when the last time you moved him with trouble... making sure it didn’t hurt him. They don't know what it felt like to pet their face in the last moments of their life.... In Memory of all those who went over the rainbow bridge. You all have a place forever in our hearts 💕❤️🐾😢🐾❤️ Beautiful post shared by Dona Hall and @sacreddreams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
widow'15 Posted September 25, 2020 Report Share Posted September 25, 2020 Oh Marty this has to be the most beautiful and moving words describing why the loss of a fur baby is so difficult to us who have lost a companion.

Jayjay Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 This is so true.I just lost my 17 year old pug Jaylo .I lost a dog a few years ago I was completely distraught hopelessly crying on the floor when my pug Jaylo came up and licked my tears on my face as they came down.They know when we are hurting and take care of us.Only those who have loved a dog knows this feeling.thank you Jaylo and all the other dogs who love us unconditionally. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
