I lost my dog Tiny almost 6 weeks ago.He died from heart failure due to an enlarged heart.He was on 3 different types of medication it seemed to help him but i knew it was only a matter of time.Tiny was not just a dog but he was a good and loving friend to me and his whole family for nearly 15 precious years.I wouldn't give up my memories of him for anything on this earth.Tiny was my true and loyal friend right up until he died and i miss him more with each passing day.There have been very few people who are in my life that have meant as much to me as he did.People who have never loved a pet and recieved love my them tenfold in return will never understand what im saying.A pet's love is real and unconditional unlike any other.Tiny died on dec.15 of this past year and i am happy that he passed without pain,due to the medication and that he died at home with his family there.I thank God for that every day because we were there with him and we loved on him and told him we loved him.I believed that we helped him die comfortably and with lots of love.He was ready to go,he didn't put up a struggle he went peaceful.I know with all my heart that he went to rainbow heaven.I know that there is a place for him on the other side.Tiny was full of life love and spirit right up to the day he passed,he knew we loved him deeply and he loved us.I was and still am grief stricken over his death.I felt guilty like maybe i could have done more for him even though i know that i did everything that i could.Tiny was one of a kind and i will remember always..Here is a picture of Tiny 3 days before his passing

I am so sorry to hear about Tiny but I believe, like you, that precious little Tiny is in doggie heaven. I truly believe that. He will meet my Poppy, who I lost on 1/20/11. I can tell by your words that Tiny was very loved by you and he loved you very much as well. I know he has taken this love with him and I am sure he was happy to have passed peacefully in his home with his loved ones.

My prayers are with you. Stay in touch with us here.

Peace and love.

Thank you very much for your kind words.I cry every single day.I think going to get better sometimes,then when i see his pictures i cry all over again.I believe with all my heart that our pets are with each other and all the other pets that went before them and after them.

Hi ilovemydogTiny

Tiny really looks at rest in the photo you posted. He is a beautiful dog. Thank you for sharing your suffering with us. You are in my thoughts and prayers and I hope that with each new dawn the pain eases a little.

Take care

Hi, lovemyTiny, please permit me to add my sincerest sympathies in the loss of your beloved Tiny. Losing a beloved companion is never easy regardless of the circumstances or how long we have been blessed with the privilege of their company.

This grief journey is one of the hardest experiences we will have on this side of eternity. It is a journey that can only be made in our time and in our own way. One of the many things for you to remember is that you are not traveling this journey alone. Each of us are here for you for as long and as often as you need us. And it is important that you give yourself permission to grieve, for this truly will eventually help to ease the deep sorrow you are feeling right now.

The adjustment to the physical absence of our beloved companions is very painful - - both emotionally and physically. It isn't accomplished in a day, a month, five months - - but eventually. As you make this adjustment, I promise you that you will never ever forget your precious Tiny. I guarantee this is impossible to do - - not even the dimming of our minds with age can ever diminish the eternal love bond we share with our beloved companions.

IlovemyTiny, thank you so much for sharing with us about your precious Tiny. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers, and please let us know how you're doing whenever possible.

Peace and blessings,
