For lots of families, their favorite pets ARE members of their family. The smaller breeds remarkably so because they are called lap dogs for a reason and the bonds can be so close.
It can be hard for pets losing owners too.
Losing a beloved dog is like losing a member of the family. Been there, done that and it hurts a lot. I’ve often said that a loyal dog is the closest thing to unconditional love you will ever see in this life.
Got that right. I love my dogs.

We’ve had a dog and two cats die and it was painful. We have two dogs now that are 13. They’ll make another 4 tears, possibly. We’re regretting it but we hope we’ll out live them because we worry about what would happen to them.
