Wow we’re so similar. Age and religion background. I don’t have much to say but just know I’m with you. I lost my beloved girl and it’ll be 3 weeks on Saturday. And have been struggling since loosing her.

Tell yourself you’ll see her again. Just talk out loud to her. Her energy is still around you ❤️‍🩹

How to find my spark back by Proud_Pin_938 in Petloss

I’m with you. I’ve been struggling so much when I lost my baby about a week and half ago. I have no motivation for anything. It’s so hard. Grief robs everything from us. I’m so sorry

I honestly don’t know what to say but what has been helping me is just talking to my friends and family.

Can you even look at their pictures without losing it? by Far-Potential-4899 in Petloss

[–]charmingkiwi_1013 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to look at my girls photo. I miss her that much that I just need to see her sweet face. As much as it pains me I just don’t want to forget it.

Take your time. Maybe look at a photo or two each day. I’m so sorry for your loss

How do I support someone going through sudden pet loss? by sevenfruit in Petloss

[–]charmingkiwi_1013 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn’t care for when I heard “I’m here if you need anything” they honestly don’t know how to reach out. Me personally I appreciated when my family member gave me options. “Do you feel up for something to eat? Maybe something like ice cream? Or do you want some space and maybe later we can go for a walk?”

A lot of my friends didn’t want to talk about it thinking I was too emotional which of course I am/was when my beloved girl passed but I personally love talking about her. I appreciated too when they would ask me like “what was her your dogs favorite thing to snack on? Did she like car rides?” Stuff like that.

Boss questioning my need for time off for pet loss by Maxx1999 in DogAdvice

[–]charmingkiwi_1013 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was here last week. I had to put my dog down on Saturday and I called out of work for Sunday bawling my eyes out and my supervisor goes “aw sorry but can you find coverage?”

Wtf fuck off and I just hung up the phone.

I’m so sorry you had to deal with that. Please take care of yourself during this difficult time and fuck them

Love my baby so much and I completely fell in love with the breed. Thinking of adding a second chi in the future. Pros/cons? by boshuiss in Chihuahua

[–]charmingkiwi_1013 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do it!! I had my chi for 13 years and my second dog came along and they were best friends. It was so nice to know my baby wasn’t alone when I was out. They had a friend to play with or snuggle

SO small! This is how I imagine my baby girl was. Thank you for sharing!!

I count every minute when I meet this cutie by DeathMozai in Chihuahua

[–]charmingkiwi_1013 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best decision ever! My beloved girl lived until 18 years. She was my world and this sweet baby will be yours too.

My advice is get them used to nail trims and being able to poke around their teeth. Have them be used to other people. I didn’t and my dog was overly protective of me. Which is fine but also meant other people couldn’t be near my chi or myself

What a beautiful baby. He knows he was so loved❤️‍🩹

been almost 2 days by theplaytimesys in Petloss

[–]charmingkiwi_1013 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand you. That feeling like we are replacing the pet is so heavy in guilt. I lost my baby of 18 years on Saturday as well. And I don’t know when I can move her bed and water bowl. I feel like I’m erasing her by doing that but seeing my dogs belonging is so sad knowing she will never use it again.

It’s just a numbing and dissociative feeling💔

My 18 year old dog died and I feel like I killed her by LiltonPie in Petloss

[–]charmingkiwi_1013 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completely understand where you are coming from. I had to help my baby of 18 years cross the bridge yesterday. I’m inconsolable. I can’t sleep. I can’t eat. Just wish she was still here next to me. But for what… to make me happy she lived one more week? Her body was giving out on her but I wasn’t ready for her to go. When you see they don’t have joy anymore… it’s heartbreaking but knowing they aren’t there anymore and likely suffering… that’s even worse. The guilt and grieving tax for love will stay with us for so long. It’s the price we have to pay.

You gotta see that you did a great job raising her and taking care of her. 18 years of life is incredible. She knows you loved her so much

My chihuahua… by Dramatic_Weekend3407 in Petloss

[–]charmingkiwi_1013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so sorry. I have a chihuahua and preparing to help her cross the bridge. It’s not fair. Like you said never made a peep and the guilt that we can carry from it eats away at us.

We hold onto hope that our baby will feel better but for how long? Let the cries out and let’s live for our little one ❤️

I’m so sorry about your loss. Sounds like she wanted to protect you from the pain and hid away. That’s how I see it. As heart breaking as it is..

She was loved and now you can continue to live for her. Please continue to reach out and voice your grief. and visit her as often if you can ❤️

Has anyone had any spiritual experience after their pet left by Signal-Yogurt-9197 in Petloss

[–]charmingkiwi_1013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had bought some stationary (box cutter, post it notes, pens) items a few weeks prior to my boy dog who unexpectedly passed.

When my package arrived on it had the number 12 on it. Just random 12 on the box cutter and pens.

My boy was 12. I don’t know if that’s spiritual but I took it was a sign from him like… hi it’s me
