@@janiceplatt6993 daily I feel like snapping at idiots. Ironically, I find adults in the world to be the worst. Children who are raised to be respectful of animals are so much easier to teach respectful animal behavior to. They ALWAYS ask if they can approach and pet a new animal. They never approach service animals. They've learned that they can compliment the owner and if that owner volunteers that it is OK only then will they approach. They do not ask to pet or encroach on a working animal's space. My uncle is blind and I may need a service animal for my severe hearing loss. I'm rapidly approaching fully deaf in 1 ear and I have 70% loss in the other.

Just remember your not replacing your loss your previous dog will always be a part of you a new dog will not fill the hole your previous dog left. There are lots of dogs who need homes and your previous dog would look down on you proud to see you give the same amazing quality of life that they had. It's not wrong or replacing to be willing to take in another dog although I can really feel how it would seem that way I had the same issue after my cat of 18 years died. But you've just got to remember that all animals are there unique personalities and would be more then happy to help heal the pain of your loss. They will never replace your previous dogs memory but they will find a place in your heart and become an important part of your life. I like to imagine that when you get another pet after loosing one your previous pet or pets help guide you to find the animal that needs you most. Sorry for the ramble but on a more practical note a great place to start if you do want another dog could be fostering your helping dogs in need and honoring your dogs memory by giving other dogs a chance to find an amazing human and have incredible lives. I hope this helps I really feel your pain I lost my cat 5 years ago and it still effects me it was really hard to get a new pet after that loss so I really understand it.

[@nunyadb129]

Me too! I didn’t know it was common actually. I just did it naturally because it felt like the right thing to do. 💖 I had lost my dog of almost 10 years June 6th 2020 and then February 2021, my family cat had also passed as he was almost 14 years old and had many underlying health problems and I was having a really hard time coping since I had basically grown up with them. They were my babies. I lived in a house of 3 other animals, but none of which were mine and for some reason bonding and spending time with them just didn’t feel the same (not that I don’t love them because I DO love them) and I knew that I needed an animal that I could call mine and only mine. My sister’s cat had just had kittens and I’m definitely a lover of cats and she gave me one of her kittens in August 2021. I felt so incredibly guilty but at the same time I was so happy to have my own furry friend again and I noticed she kept gravitating towards the box of my dog’s ashes on my dresser and would play with his leash and collar that I have wrapped around it as well as act like she was playing with something around it in the air and as someone that’s very spiritual, I had a feeling it was my boy coming to say hi to her and play with her as he was extremely playful and loved everyone (and was especially nosy with cats lol). So I started telling her all about him and saying how much they would have loved each other and how she reminded me of him because they’re both so energetic, playful, brave and sweet. It helped so much. 💖 I still get sad thinking of him as it’s only been 2 years, now, but the pain is more bearable than before and having my cat has helped so much. (Even if she does sound like a pterodactyl sometimes when she meows to get my attention and chew on my poor freaking bamboo plant **sigh** 😂💖)

I learned about the deep emotional pain the loss of a best friend dog leaves us. So I learned to easiest way to heal that pain is with the love of another dog. I generally have 2-3 dogs all in different stages of age (puppy, middle age, senior) just so when the senior passes I have the other 2 to help me grieve. We just lost our 15-year old yellow lab Chunk, and it was devastating, but without 9-year old Sammy and 6-year old King, I would have been even more of a mess than I was/am. In a few years, or sooner, I’ll add a puppy/youngling to the pack. And so on. What’s great is the older dogs teach the young pup how to behave. When bedtime is, when feeds happen, how to tell the human about potty needs, certain cues we use and hand gestures for behavior. It’s really nice, I hardly have to train at all. So my advice is get another furry best friend ASAP. Or better yet, open your mind and heart to the universe you want to give a dog a home and one will find YOU!! It’s happened to me many times lol.

My chihuahua is 4 yrs old. She's almost always silent. But for some reason, she does seem to bark more often than she used to - when something outside peaks her interest. But her fur sticks up on her back so I don't think it's a happy bark. But I always shush her b/c I don't want neighbors to complain. She's larger than I wanted so I think she's mixed with a terrier. When I first got her a couple yrs ago, I thought she was mixed with greyhound b/c her body looked like a small greyhound.

Chihuahuas make wonderful companions. They are easy to care for and require little grooming since the long-haired Chihuahuas' coats do not tangle easily. Being a small breed, they also have lower food requirements compared to larger dogs. Chihuahuas can be territorial, affectionate, and very attached to their owners.

The best way to honor a pet that has passed is to give another one a chance at a good life. Sometimes it works out that way whether you plan it or not. My Baby Girl passed at 12 years old. The very next day a kitten with burned paws and an eye infection was found at my job, which is something because I work at diesel shop. We think she may have come in on one of the tractor trailers we care for in our fleet. Of course I took her home. She was going to get run over or eaten by a hawk or a snake at the shop. I named her Terra Belle after my Baby Girl. Baby Girl sounded like a baby pterodactyl when she meowed. Funny thing is Terra Belle kind of has Baby Girl’s take no prisoners attitude too. My dad affectionately refers to her as Terror instead of Terra Belle.

No guilt please. To give another pet a loving and caring home is an extraodinary way to honor your dog you just lost. You are not replacing them.

My mother, 79 years old, lost her chihuahua few months ago due to a heart condition, 12 years old. She is so heartbroken. If you never had a dog you never can feel how much pain it does when they die on you. It hurts, really really bad.

[@MaynardsSpaceship]

I'm so sorry. I have an animal companion that doesn't have a good prognosis. It's really difficult. No real way to prepare for that kind of loss.

[@hupaogaming9559]

we lost our dog just a couple of days ago i never thought that i would cry over a dog or animal its really sad :(

[@stevenkatie789]

It is very hard when you lose a dog. I lost a dog in March, I had her for 9 years . She was already a senior when I got her. I was holding her up to eat because she was in rough shape and she passed while I was holding her. I haven’t cried that hard for anything since my dad passed in 2009. My mom said something that helped me feel a little better about it she said “ at least she was with the one who loved her the most and took care of her the best and she wasn’t alone”

[@JoshuaShaneSmith]

@@MaynardsSpaceship It's so hard. I'm sorry for you. But enjoy al the good things and love him/her as much as you can and live life to the fullest together, with no regrets. All the best!

[@KindCountsDeb3773]

Tina is too much !! I love how animated, talky, and precious she is. She has all the quirky, fun traits in her and also is a great runner - - those short little legs moving so fast and tippy tappy to her Mama. Give Tina a hug, she is a special little bean !! And thank you for taking her in, she sure is glad !

[@bevalexander5897]

Tina’s personality just jumps out of the screen! I have rescued a chihuahua too. He found me 8 yrs ago, and he was there when I had to euthanize my 2 retired working dogs, a shepherd and a Belgian Malinois. Jack got me through it. I wish he would live forever.

What a beautiful story, wishing you and the dog, the best.

I always say that the pet who passed on sent the grieving parent a new pet to love. Especially if they have, at least, a few of the same quirks. :o)

I fully believe dogs have a wisdom that goes far beyond human understanding. You're not replacing the pup you lost, you are opening your heart to a new baby. Beebs and Tina have it all worked out. :)

I totally get what she’s saying. I lost my 3 elderly dogs within a year (they were 14, 15 & 20!) I was so devastated, I needed another animal in my life, and I ended up with a cat! I talk to her every day and tell her about my dogs. It helps so much, I’m not even remotely embarrassed! Lol❤️

Can you share how you take care of your dogs so they live to be 20? Many thanks.

Hello I can really empathize. I lost my last Havanese this week. She was 15 and three months and I adopted her When she was three from a breeder as I did with My other girl who passed away last year same month. The only puppy I had was one she couldn’t breed or show because he had a heart condition. He lived until seven . My daughters boxer also passed away at 12 last year so for the first time I am Without a dog and I feel so empty and so does my partner. I’m 72 so I don’t know if it’s fair to get another dog but I’m so lost without one. Chihuahuas are wonderful but I think with my disabilities I need a lower energy dog like a Havanese. They are just as needy though. Sorry For the long comment but this video made me smile and so wonderful to see the bond between human and canine. Aloha

[@loiscampbell3510]

@@MarilynMayaMendoza I was about 75 years old and, though a life long dog lover, I had said the same thing. "It wouldn't be fair of me to get a puppy at my age." THEN one day I read about the near tragedy that befell a small chihuahua in my neighborhood (through the NextDoor app). She had been abandoned on the streets on a stormy night in Sept with no collar and no chip. Worst yet, she was attacked and left for dead by a couple of coyotas. Luckily she was saved by a man wielding a baseball bat because he thought they were attacking his cat. He took her in and assessed her condition. She was severely injured. She was taken to an animal hospital and treated for punctured lung, broken ribs, bites, etc. Word went out on social media hoping the owners would come forward and claim her. When that didn't happen, I stepped in and expressed my desire to adopt her. I had to wait 10 days for her discharge and anxiously awaited her arrival via a local animal rescue. She's the best dog I've ever owned - bar none. She's my constant companion and I love her to pieces.

[@MarilynMayaMendoza]

@@loiscampbell3510 Hello Lois, that’s a wonderful story and I’m so glad you have such a wonderful companion. I’m tempted to look at Chihuahua’s but I guess I’m hooked on Havanese and I know a. Responsible breeder who rehomes not elderly but maybe three year old and older dogs.Maybe in the future at least a year from now. Much aloha sent your way
