The sadness and loneliness of pet loss are almost unbearable not to mention the guilt. I can speak from personal experience when I say that no matter how ill your pet is, the decision to euthanize your pet can be among the most difficult you will ever make. It is a courageous first step to be able to end the suffering of a pet, that nevertheless still brings with it unwelcome grief.

I can help you deal with this emotionally wrought issue. From the research I have done while enduring this very sad pet loss, it has helped me through this troublesome time, and I have written this ebook so you can solve your problem with less pain.

When my little white Bichon, Pepi, turned up her nose at chow time, I thought perhaps the chow was not quite right or tainted. I tried different kinds of known favorites to no avail. More concerns set in when she would not come and welcome me at the door or encourage me to play tag with her and was unexcited to go for a walk while being lethargic most of the day.

Pepi was really sick as she was pooping and throwing up repeatedly.

My wife called our vet and an appointment was made to bring her in for an exam. Other than a few minor failings, she was ‘old’ as the vet put it and in pain. We did not want to hear this and told ourselves she would get better with more attention and care. Pepi did not.

When they look up at you with those droopy eyes and blink knowingly that ‘I’m hurting but I still want to be with you’ it cuts to the bone. I never thought of her as being ‘old’ and in pain. I never thought the day would come when I had to decide her demise and lose my best friend. Pet loss and grief began to set in.

I can barely write this without tearing up as the memories cascade before me and the thought of that decision that had to be made.

With a heavy heart, we decided to euthanize Pepi to end the suffering. The vet gave us a choice of coming to the office or she would come to our house. At 7:30 that night she came with an assistant and we discussed options for disposal of the remains. We chose cremation and wept.

It all went peacefully as the vet placed a syringe in her leg and she died serenely in my arms. (Our vet who had been through this scenario before thoughtfully took a paw impression of Pepi and sent it to us as a remembrance.) The grief was overwhelming.

Loneliness and guilt followed the days ahead as each sound reminded me of her with her photos and that plaster paw impression.

Fortunately, we found a grief therapy group at the local humane society that was very helpful to overcome the guilt and grief.

To busy myself to overcome Pepi’s loss, I wrote a mystery novel about her, Sniffing The Wind. In other words, occupy yourself with projects and activities that will take your mind away from your loss.

I know other pet owners might have struggled with the same problems I had with Pepi, so I wrote this ebook to help ease some of the pain I had with the following challenges.

What this eBook, My Pet Loss And Dealing With Grief, covers is when your emotions are confusing to you.

• When to euthanize your best friend and what are the signs of disability. This can be the hardest time of all for most of us.

• OTHER WEBSITES won’t tell you about pet loss and grief and unless you have been there and gone through this, they can’t empathize with your pain. Even ‘free’ information about pet loss ‘sucks’ because their info is cold and sterile.

• I will tell you the step-by-step levels a pet lover has to consider when losing a dog/cat because this research is effective and conclusive.

• What about children? Should they be told about euthanasia and that Snoopy is ‘going to sleep’? What are the signs of grief in children and what to look for.

• Should there be a memorial or funeral ceremony. What about the remains? Another pet?

• Let me tell you the one thing this ebook does NOT do is alleviate your pain and anguish. Eighty percent of pet owners in the U.S. consider their pets as family and that grief is normal. This ebook does NOT replace your feelings but merely tries to suggest how to handle them when you are feeling lousy.

• When I lost Pepi, friends noticed my grief and tried to reassure me that ‘it’s only a dog’ and to ‘cheer up’. I just wanted to be left alone with my memories of Pepi as ‘not only just a dog’. Here’s what you might do.

• Included is a list of resources. Where to find additional support.

• And in case you are wondering, this information was complied September 2008. So it’s still fresh and completely valid.

• Let me help you solve your anguish because I have been there and can help you. Make no bones about it, your thoughts drift, you are melancholy, small clues bring you tears and now I have to cope with my feelings?
