Remembering The Good Times, What are some fond memories of your pet? Options

[crystal0]

After I lost my almost 14-year-old dog, Touch, last month, I was able to go to my local humane society's pet loss support group a couple times. At the end of each session, we would take turns sharing a fond memory about our pet. I thought it would be nice to hear what special memories everyone here has as well.

For me, everytime I sat cross-legged on the floor in the living room, Touch would see me from the kitchen and automatically come to me. Then, he would lay down, resting his right side of his face on my left leg. It was always this way. And everytime I got up and moved a few feet and sat down cross-legged again, he would follow and lay his head on my leg. It was just a cute, loving action that Touch would show, and I will always remember it.

It was always so funny whenever I started singing either with or without the karaoke machine, Bailey would come to me and sit right at my feet or by my side (or in my lap if I was sitting on the floor) and act so thrilled that I was singing to her. She was my #1 fan just as I was of her!

It's also funny to think about how each time my partner or I got out of her sight, she would begin a cute little howl just until you peeked around the corner, out of the shower, over the stair rail, etc. to let her know you were just a few steps away from her.

I loved the idea of writing a special memory on seperate pieces of paper! I will definitely do that to help in my healing process!
