The Heartbreak of Losing a Dog
When you lose a dog, it’s like losing a piece of your heart. For many dog moms, that bond runs deeper than words can express. They were there for every cuddle, every walk, every moment—until the very end. The silence that follows is heavy, but love never truly leaves. That’s where this poem comes in.

📜 Full poem here:
Don't cry, sweet Mama, please don't weep,
Please try, dear Mama, to get some sleep.
I know you're sad, and it's because of me,
But don't cry, Mama, for now I am pain-free.
I know you miss me, and I miss you too,
No one could have loved me more than you.
I know of some dogs that run away to die,
But not me, Mama, I looked you straight in the eye.
I didn't want to leave you, but my body lost the fight,
And now, my dearest Mama, you mourn me day and night.
You wished you could have given me a bit more time to live,
But Mama, believe me, I had little left to give.
I am glad you took me on that day, there was no other choice,
I would have told you to "do it" if I had a human voice.
Don't feel guilty, Mama, I know it broke your heart,
I was always going to leave you first, we knew it from the start.
But what a life you gave me, it really was the best,
Not many have a life like mine, for that I am truly blessed.
I hope one day I will see you again,
With a smile upon your face,
But for now, I will snuggle up inside your heart,
My very favorite place.
