My first Vlog about my dog

[@jeffchilton]

I heard someone once express it aptly: Your animal companion may be a big part of your life, but you're their whole life. I'm sure he was very, very loved and knew it.

[@TheeZulu]

My heart goes out to you and deepest condolences on your loss of your boy, Vinnie. I lost our Eddie three years ago this month and can sympathize with you. Love your music. Take care.

[@mickpeters4457]

Pets give love unreservedly. May you find peace in happy memories of Vinnie. Whenever I go on tour I take photos of my cats with me, they are my family. 😻😻😻

[@kaylalux2125]

i still cant believe someone as amazing as you works beside my mum! x

[@davefouchey8847]

Dogs grieve too, within a month of my wife passing two of our dogs Hunter and Sophie, about the same size as your Vinnie, pined away themselves. The youngest still misses them Jasmine is my buddy in grief. They are family. Thank you for sharing this one Jane. This is a nice change of pace view into you, peace young one.

[@TheSingleTrucker]

I'm a year late, thank you for sharing your loss and healing! Never let the moon stop singing to you, and your pipes get dusty.

[@markdemucha8848]

I'm real sorry for your loss! After I retired from the Army my dog Bootsie was one of the few things that I could rely on 100%

[@kevinlawson8642]

Very emotional thank you for sharing that moment THUMPER

[@teresaturner4883]

Aw, bless your heart! It is such a hard part of life. I hope you, Chris & wee Jerry are doing well and are healing from your loss. All my love!

[@kristalmcculloch6734]

Poor little love , im sorry you lost your Vinnie , its so heartbreaking you're never really ready for it when it happens . I wish you and yours blessings of healing , especially your other fur babies.

Jane, My deepest condolences on your loss. Thank you for sharing these moments in your amazing life, Be Well... Be Strong

[@kees1705vanwely]

I lost my boxer Keno in dec. 2017. Sometimes, out of the blue, I still cry because I miss him. So I know from experience how you must feel. But it's better to have loved a dog, cat or whatever pet one had. Than not to have know/feel the unconditional love that they give us. Namasté.

[@rtbrain]

That is SO SAD! Pets are our furry children. They actually are sometimes BETTER than our children most of the time. They are perpetually happy to see us and be with us and all they require is our attention and love. 5 years ago we lost our long hair dachshund, Frankfurter. It was one of the hardest days of my life. Took us two years to have the courage to get another dog which we did, Graycie. She’s a lovely girl! I will follow you because I love your piping and of course your mesmerizing Scottish accent. I was in Scotland to play futbol for 3 weeks and fell in love with the country and it’s people. One day I’ll make it back.

[@Julian-bq9qv]

*I am so sorry for your loss; my late wife and i worked with an animal rescue group for years, and often had three to five dogs plus cats in the house. It is always so painful when one of our little furry family pass away- and the remaining ones sense our own emotion so it is really helpful to not show our sadness and tears around them, lest they begin to feel depressed by our feelings!* *Now in my last years, I have one dog left, and a number of cats, but I pray to live long enough that none are left as orphans. Will offer prayers for your little pack, and you as well. All best wishes to you and yours*

[@JaneEspie]

Aww thanks for your comment! I’m sorry for all your loss but that is awesome you worked with an animal recuse group! Just imagine all the animals that have benefited ❤️❤️❤️❤️thank you for looking after the vulnerable animals.

[@davidakin9629]

Thanks for sharing Jane. So sorry for your loss. We lost our Yellow Labrador Retriever "Louie" several years ago, and have him with us at home. Great to hear from you!

[@arnoldhillbillygrizzlyputm1493]

Man that brought tears to the eyes for little jerry . Have seen this a few times but still don't get any easier .

[@JaneEspie]

Thank you very much. Totally, it’s hard to see ❤️❤️❤️❤️😢😢😢😢

[@arnoldhillbillygrizzlyputm1493]

@@JaneEspie depending on jerry's age you will have to keep a eye on him as he might follow his friend because he cant go without him which is something i seen before in cats an dogs . Least when he does go there be room in that urn for him too . Love that fur family photo an you can see in that photo how close they are .

[@jrubioboitel]

Thank you for sharing that. I know it is so hard. I lost my dog, of 16 years, recently and my cat was not the same for a couple of weeks.

[@vvogt4252]

So sad for you. Keep the memories in your heart. I remember some of my dogs when I'm just riding down the road. I think theyre always with You

[@JaneEspie]

Thank you for your kind words! Yeah, I sometimes feel that Vinnie is there! Until we meet again ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@kennethswick4587]

My heart goes out to you. Omg. Just realized that this is my first KZbin comment, but it's so appropriate. It hurts to watch. When my little Chihuahua goes, I can't even imagine and I've lost too many over the years.

[@hannahalexander7442]

I'm sorry for your loss, I've lost a few I love myself so I feel your pain. My heart, soul, thoughts and best wishes are with you and yours. Sending big warm hugs and sweet kisses.

[@The-Real-Term]

This broke my heart and made me smile at the same time. I’ve lost 2 chihuahuas that were like my children so I know your pain but just remember the memories are forever.

[@anti-popfpv4638]

I hope the best for you and your family. They go to heaven, all puppers

[@shelleycollison8022]

Jane I'm so sorry that Vinnie is gone now. and it's quite clear that you really loved him. He will always be in your heart!❤️ Thank you so much for sharing this with us. It is really special to me because you show a real side of yourself that we normally wouldn't get to see, the real down to earth you, and the real you! Not too many would let us into such a vulnerable part of their lives. God Bless you❤️ So I was wondering how you got started playing the bagpipes, and are they hard to learn to play?

[@alexcross7800]

Thanks for the vlog....I'm the same with my bubbas...dogs....they're my kids...but yeah every living thing needs to see and have their grieving periods...but wanted to say thanks for such an intimate look into your life and your bagpipping is amazing...you seem like a very down to earth person...thanks again.

[@JaneEspie]

Aww thank you for your lovely message! Means a lot! Yep. We all grief... every living thing on this earth feels pain at times. When we loose.... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕💕💕🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈

Really sorry for your loss, saying goodbye is hardest thing. Be great to hear more of your amazing music and craftwork you mentioned, when the time is right

[@Thomas-Nelson]

Fantastic, it is amazing how you can fit in, all that you do, well done, and very sad about your little one👍

[@starshiptrooper2354]

You had me misty. Had mevthinknof my dogs over the years. Each time lost it like a family member past. My first Shepard's paid to have her buried in Pet cemetary , head stone and all. Back then 600. Years later. Wanted small fortune. One Dobie I had. He was 15, and healthy found him in bed passes with little black cat curled up sleeping with him. She spent weeks looking for him around the house... Nice of you to share your story...what ever you want say .. surprise us...music too

[@JaneEspie]

Thank you very for your kind words! Yeah, I totally agree with you. Really? Wow, that’s rough. Must have been hard for you. At least your animals are lucky to have someone like you! Thanks for taking time to comment ❤️🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈💝

[@kingjuggalo4774]

Pet wether their dogs, cats or any animal really can feel the love you give them and remember what you and their brother and sisters have done for them they are more then just animals they are your family I'm sorry for you lose stay strong my friend

[@primularchangel]

He is such a cute pup, im so sorry for your loss. You have such a cute furry family lol.. That got me right in the feels and i started crying and thinking about the day i lost my pup .. It has been 10 years since i lost her. I have her ashes on my shelf and i say good night to her every night still, as i had done when she was still with me. Having to say goodbye to her was on of the hardest things ever in my life. A few months after she passed my mom got a new pup who is now 10. Shes such a good pup and my best little bud. I enjoy every day with her and spoil the crap out of her lol . Pups are amazing animals.. Thank you for sharing this and giving me a good cry, a joyful cry not a sad one..

[@TWBrit65]

Wow... I can't believe anyone who saw this wasn't touched by it. Thank you

[@KayleenGnwmythr]

Animals do know more than many people give them credit for. When we had to have one of our cats (Saffron) put to sleep, his brother (Willow) grieved for quite some time.

[@kingjuggalo4774]

I just seen this vid and it made me realize that for the first time in my life I have two dogs and even though they are jealous of each other they are still sisters and love each other and one is a senior dog she will be 13 next year and at some point not only with I have to deal with the grief of losing her so won't her sister I thank you for letting me know what I need to do for her when the time comes to help her sister through it I have already lost one dog in my life but never had to help another with the grief either way thank you and I hope you and your are doing well I know it can be hard to lose a dog that you love but from this video I can tell that you give your dogs a good life and know that they will be waiting to see you again

[@travel734]

Jane, Thank you for sharing this. I just lost my dog and it has been really rough. Like you the other dog in the house has also missed his big brother.

That made me tear up a bit. Sorry for your loss. I just subscribed to you so that's why I didn't see this year's ago.

[@brandonparker387]

It is obvious the part Vinnie played in your life - and it will take time for the ache in your heart to subside. Just remember that you have a special gift with your bagpipes, followers that love to hear from you, and those at home that still love you and need you. God bless...

[@jackdawg4579]

Hi Jane, our poodle passed last friday, he was part of our family for 18 years. So I am very aware of your sadness, both my wife and I, as well as our other dogs, we are all still feeling it. I still look for him in his favourite spots he used to sleep or sit, and get really sad when I realise once again I wont see him there again.

[@giannirusso604]

I am very sorry for the serious loss .... in this video you demonstrate that you are a very deep and sensitive person we humans should appreciate much more the other beings that populate our planet .... animals, plants, rivers, seas etc .... but unfortunately we humans do not even appreciate other humans ... and often not even ourselves ... however I am sure that the spirit of your dog will be alive forever in your soul ... and I wish you a Merry Christmas! :)

[@shanem.2984]

I lost my dog Vicky August 3rd of this year. She was a lab-chow mix almost 20 years old. They usually live to be about 10-15 years old. Grieving is the hard part. There is no right or wrong way to grieve but it is “bad” to ever suppress grief. Things get better and you move on with time - but you always remember. I had her since I was 11 and I’m 29 now. I feel better thinking about how I took good care of her and how she lived a good, LONG and happy life. She is in a better place.

[@josjevantiel]

So sad for you. Keep the memories in your heart

[@JaneEspie]

I’m sorry for your similar experience! Hard times! Thanks for your comment ❤️❤️❤️

[@benmoore1097]

Truly sorry for your loss :( Dogs are very perceptive. I've seen that with friends of mine. They had a bunch of dogs. One died. As we buried her, the rest were right there, clearly mourning.

[@Samanthareneeheart1]

I am so sorry for your loss. I had a Retrever mix (mixed with what no idea maybe lab) he was a stray that just showed up as a puppy one day out in my rural area. He got SOMETHING maybe a mange or something like that & lost most of his beautiful fur. We tried & tried to get him better but at a loss we had to put him down. Wish I had a pic but got this phone after we put him to sleep. Yes he was under a vets care vet didn't even know. So.... yeah its sad when one just dies like that.

Sorry for you loss. If possible have “vinies?” (as I understood the name) favorite blanket or Cloth (something with his smell) and wrap it around a ticking clock. It might help with “jerrys?” grief

[@geruner]

Its a she shed. People do not realize how in tune the animals are. I speak dog... studied wolves. They learn from one another... you may get to see Vinnie showing up in Jerry in some ways. It is a process for all to deal with the emptiness. Have become a deeper fan of the pipes.... Scot dont hurt either. Take care. GER aka LK

[@ShadowedHandParish]

Aww...as a medical foster for a local animal rescue I can really empathize with the situation..we've had a very bad distemper outbreak this last year through the American southwest and we've been fighting it right along with the pups. we've had about 40-ish and maybe 10 have made it to adoption. And onto them knowing: My old Aussie shepherd passed of old age in the bathtub (it was the coolest place in the house that spring)..and every time her adopted daughters go in the room they stick their noses down into the drain like "mom, you down there?"

[@jesseburr9211]

So sad for your loss. Try to relax, dogs are right next to cats for unconditional love. Xoxo from my 6 cats and one beauty dog. Lost 3 in one year. Really, torn up...now, stage 4 lung cancer, ain't that a bitch?
