Losing my dog

Grieving and bereavement over the loss of a dog, whether through death or enforced separation, can be a very sad and painful experience. Life, once filled with the love and friendship of a dog, may suddenly seem very empty.

Feelings of despair, loneliness and even depression can be overwhelming. There may also be a strong sense of guilt and self-doubt, particularly when a decision has been made to euthanise a dog.

These feelings are normal and a testimony to the special bond between people and their pets. Unfortunately, not everybody understands this grief, and it can be a very lonely experience for many people.

Research has shown that more than a third of animal lovers are so affected by grief after the loss of their dog that they still mourn more than a year later.
