I just 2days ago had to put my 9yr old Daushund to sleep she had stomach tumor and I couldn't afford the vet bill I feel like dying inside . Today I have to go pick her ashes up that would be really hard too because my cousin took her in when they put her to sleep because I just couldn't do it I don't know I feel like I let her down because I didn't take her in I just feel like I can't get through the day I guess I need to go to grief counseling

Not only dogs! 🤬🤬🤬 Cats matter 😻😻💔💔

Two years ago, I had to say good bye to one of my cats. I had severe guilt about this, partially because I didnt understand that there was nothing I could have done...I thought that if I had caught what was wrong earlier, I could have saved her. But one year later my other cat was diagnosed with the same thing and I learned that its the protein in the food that damages them and there was nothing I could have done even if I had caught it earlier. It happens because they arent designed to have long lives. I was able to let go of my guilt. Partially at least. I still feel guilty about the euthanasia and I have been so scared that if there is a life after this....that she would be lost and stuck at the vet, instead of being with us or going to the afterlife where she should be. Now I also gotta wrangle with the guilt from my second cats death...We avoided going to the vet to euthanize him because he would get so stressed... it would probably have killed him on the way to the vet anyway...but I still dont know if it was the right choice... neither choice was optimal...I wish I could have called a vet to come to my house to help but its almost impossible to get normal vet appointments in the summer... Best I can console myself with was that my second cat got to die in the comfort of his own home, with me and my mom nearby....but the guilt will probably still haunt me...

Another excellent toy opportunity/design! I love the toys you make, so cute! I would like being a dog so I could play with the toys. You should make a people treat toy for Us People who are Uncontrolled Chocolate Eaters. I need a slow feeder toy to keep me from eating the whole box of chocolate chip cookies in one sitting. lol I loved your collaboration with Paws for Purple Hearts too. Very cool! Well done to you both! -------- IDEA 🦴 If you're looking for a very cool collaboration w another very worthy dog lover/helper, I would ADORE seeing you two do a fun dog treat cooking video with Rocky Kanaka 'Sitting with Dogs' video guy here on KZfaq. He works with tragically shut down pups at the pet shelter to get them feeling more safe and secure and then confident, so that they have a chance of being adopted because they can open up and begin trusting again. Being happy dogs again. Rocky started working with shelter dogs in a neat way - he has a Dog Bakery in CA and uses his homemade jerky to ease traumatized shelter dogs out of their extreme fear state. Then he created his 'Sitting w Dogs' video channel to show people how shelter pets can be helped in so many different forms... Then he created Flip's Coffee Farm to honor his best friend pup that he rescued [and who sadly recently passed away, but after a long happy life], a Boxer who went on to help Rocky foster dogs in need and get them ready for adoption. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y7d3pcyCzbi3f6s.html THEN Rocky built a Quonset hut on the coffee farm to foster/rehab dogs before they can be adopted - such as Bean, who is a stray Cattle dog puppy brought into the shelter with a severely shattered broken leg. Bean's recovery video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hdmgqK9527i7kWw.html My point here is that Rocky is fascinated with what snuffle toys are/can do for these shelter dogs [he saw a snuffle mat donated to the shelter and was fascinated], but I think he needs to understand better how these toys work best and why you two created your Snuffle Toy Club... and my personal opinion is that if you were to collaborate with him on a Dog Treat-making KZfaq charity event, EVERYONE would benefit - most especially the education of the public about what shelter pets need to help them recover from their ordeals and get adopted, because they need their confidence and sense of security back. I dont know. It seems like a good idea in my head, not to mention fun to watch you guys create treats together. At the very least you could make a snuffle toy to promote Flip's Farm to raise rehab money for pup's like Bean. 🐶Give it a ponder if you can/would. It might be too big of an idea but it was worth mentioning to you. p.s. I watch Rocky Kanaka, Hound Hugger DIY, and Girl w Dogs videos [charity-grooms pets who are ungroomable by regular groomers because the pets have various serious issues] regularly... and I don't even have pets, I just enjoy learning from all your videos when I'm stressed out by life. lol Hugs to hounds and you!

Hound pattern

You are saying 2 yards what is the width measurement? Thx.

My dog loves these kinds of toys but she destroys them. Does the physical box come with a pattern to make additional ones? Tfs.

I had to stop watching after 7 minutes. Ladies yapping too much. Just get to the review.

Just lost my doggie Bella on June 15th. It has been a terrible pain and loss. House is so empty and quiet without her. It has been the hardest loss i have had my entire life. She is deeply missed.

❤️

This is so cute! Thanks for sharing!

Will you ever release kits you have done in the past like the apple pie?

My beautiful Lola was taken from me a few days ago, the vets kept saying they don’t know how much time she had left . I rescued her from a balcony that people kept her, I actually got her to keep my other dog company 7 years ago and it did not seem like they got on, but now our Lola has gone my other dog is depressed. I’m taking her everywhere with me to help her but she just wants to sleep on Lola’s bed. I miss her so much but am trying not to get upset to be strong for Milly.

Hound thanks

Hound! Adorable ❤

What seems to ease my heart’s pain, & honor my Forever Love for Sunnee is crocheting blankets for our animal shelter…all sizes, all colors🐾💕🐾

I love this! So cute!

Hound. Can't wait 😊

Thanks for the detailed information

Could you tell me how wide you cut your fabric strips? Love This and about to make one! Also how much rope was needed.

My dog is not afraid of thunderstorms anymore, thanks to Midnight CBD dog treats. #midnightcbd

I lost my beautiful doggie Bella 8 days ago. She was my everything. My 24/7 companion, sleeping buddy, my true soulmate. Never felt this much love before. House is so empty without her. How does one go on after this?

Hound thank you!

Thank you ladies for posting your videos on dog loss grieving. I have watched all 6 and found them helpfull. On Tuesday l lost a very sweet dog whom l had for 15yrs. He was the last of a pack of 3 that we had together losing the other 2 in just the past 2 1/2 years. I have been retired for a year now, but had been working from home for 3 years prior. So this last dog was truly by my side for 4 years. I have had the most difficult time and have a hard time moving along and getting through this. I am so broken. I have been a puddle of tears. Thank you for your help..

Hou d so cute

The worst feeling is the realisation that you will never see them again and wanting them back so bad.

I lost my beautiful boy in April '23 after i left him with a friend and i believe his greyhounds accidently killed him. He had only turned 6 years old. My friend says he doesn't know what happened, but i don't believe him one bit. My Waldo was truly like my only son. For 1 year i cried every single day. Went on a holiday, did lots and lots of different therapies and work, autopsy and reached out for closure of what actually happenedto my gorgeous boy. I stopped crying finally after 2 sessions of EMDR therapy but the guilt of replacing him with another dog and him not living still won't move. Ive been looking for another dog for a 8 months now (kind of as a test if im ready). Even put a deposit on one and pulled out. I don't know if this guilt is ever going to go away and if anytime will ever be right. Im scared of take the plunge.

Hound!

I lost my boy 2 days ago. Im aching so much and Im so glad to find this video. I hope the link is still available

I feel the exact same way as @marcusnl66 I had to let go my baby yesterday. Ace was only 7 next month. I can’t cope with so much pain and guilt. I feel my heart was ripped off. 💔 I feel I didn’t do enough. He had neurological disease and was gradually deteriorating his quality of life was not good but perhaps I could have done more. He had bad days and good days. I checked with two vets and both agreed euthanasia was needed. But now I regret it and I feel I will never recover from this, I want my fur baby back. 😢😭😭😤The house is so lonely without him. I live alone, it was my companion, he just gave me unconditional love. I miss and love my baby dog so much!!! I don’t know how I will move on 😩 on the good days he still walked and try to run. He was blind and he kept falling down and struggled to get up. That was it, he didn’t have pain with the pills but we were not sure… maybe I could did some tests and get him better meds. But I had no money. Vet said was time but he seemed fine, vet said neurological disease is an invisible disease and so much was going on wrong on his brain. But… 😭😭😭😭 I should wait… a few months maybe… I’m torturing myself with guilt 😢

Hound !! I love this !!

I got her shots because it was required still by the Humane society to protect her from those diseases but she was having hernia problems and I did not have money to get it fixed. I know now that it was too much for her and after shits her body just wore out it was too much for her. For older dogs the humane society should not require owners to have pets have shots it can weaken their immune system but she may have been going before this too. It's okay she is no longer hurting and us with God playing and having fun in Rainbow valley with all my other pets. I will never let another pet have shots when old when they are too susceptible to infections and other things she did not have the strength to fight those shots as in the parvo it was too much. I made a mistake I should have not taken her for shots I should have just let her live out her last year without it but I can't live in the past thus us over and done I let it go and forgive me for this dumb mistake. She is in a better place now. I let this go.

My dog that i had for over 16 years passed away and the pain of losing my baby was unlike any other, speaking to a hypnotherapist definitely helped, but i can't help but think about her all the time.

I had to put my doggie down yesterday. I feel sadness, anger and survivor guilt. Survivor guilt? My dog will never see blue skies again but I will. My dog will never see the aspen leaves flutter in the wind but I will. Taking it hard

I lost my girl to a car accident after she ran out in the street after greeting my friend in the front of our door. She was only two years old and I feel extremely guilty that I did not just have her greet him inside. She some times would greet him inside and other times just out front the door. She went looking for the mailman when a car that was speeding on our quiet street hit her, I believe he might have been on his phone. I feel like a negligent pet owner despite what friends and family have told me. She was with me all day everyday during my year and a half of being with her, she has left a gaping hole in my heart and I constantly feel guilt for not keeping her in the house when people enter our home.

The Lord blessed me with Gracie almost 10 years. of course He knew I was going to lose my daughter and my mother three years later. When I got Gracie, she was very sick so she was always with me. I’ve lost many dogs I loved, but none compared to Gracie. She was sitting on her pillow, watching me. Gracie watched me a lot. They say when your dog stares at you. It means they love you very much . Going back to my theory . My daughter put me through a lot from the age of 15 through the age of 28. She could care if I would live or die. With that said I mourned her and cried and cried. I gave her everything she wanted, but I didn’t ever get her love. I bailed her out of all the issues she got into, but she never saw it. Every time she had issues in Miami, I flew her to Dallas, 3:01 but a mom could only take so much abuse . My Mom passed away in peace in my arms. I miss her and I wish she would still be with me. Back to Gracie. She gave me all the love My Daughter didn’t give me. The night I had to put her down that little girl took a big piece of my heart and I am just laying in bed. I’m not eating, and I wish the Lord would take me already. Losing Gracie was going to be my total rock bottom. I can envision her running around the house and howling for me when she lost me because I couldn’t be out of her sight. I hope y’all don’t think I’m crazy, although with all my losses, I feel like I’m right there .I tried to make sense of why her passing has effected me so much . The only thing I can think about is that she loved me and I loved her back . my daughter put me through hell from the age of 15 to 28. My mom loved me but I’ve had enough time to grieve. It’s a bond. No one knows how it feels. I don’t believe in this, but it’s happened. The day after I put her down. I woke up and saw her blurry laying by her my face I heard her bark. Then I woke up last night again, and she was sitting in her pillow. Last night, I went to the door to open it up for my friend and I promise I heard her running towards me. Non-denominational Christian and we don’t believe in this. I asked the Lord to bring Adrienne in a dream and it’s been over six years dream the same with my mom. Going onto finish my theory of why I’m feeling like this. Comparing this is horrible loss to my . Gracie loved me so much and never gave me any issues. She really couldn’t be without me and I couldn’t be withouther being. I saw My Daughter but My Daughter put me through a whole lot of pain. That’s the difference that Gracie saved me. There will never be another Gracie ever. She was so different and funny. She listens to me all the time and a week before she died she was still running around and playing. I begged not to take her. I know I have Him, Gracie saved my life. Please tell me what you think. I am feeling. Forgive me for the typos crying

I called my pure shihtzu LOVE ON LEGS, although many years ago I am still crying. Always in my heart despite being told by the vet. GET OVER IT!

Hounds

Anticipatory grief didn't replace or prevent the real grief for me

How does one do slinky?

My Papillon died of old age, at home, in her bed. After a wonderful life of runs in the park, chasing squirrels, very healthy, never alone. A very happy pup. I let nature take its course. No regrets. Only my pain remains. I will miss her forever, a truly perfect dog.
