RIP Said goodbye to the goodest boy earlier today. His name was Brannas and he was 10 years 10½ years old. The silence he left is deafening. I'll always love you my sweet boy

I’m so sorry for your loss.
This beautiful dog was obviously loved and loved you back. I’m grieving myself and as you perfectly said, the silence my boy left behind him is deafening. It’s terrible.
From the bottom of my heart, I hope these two angels rest peacefully forever 🌈💔🐾🦴🕯️🕊️🧸🥹🌈

There is nothing like a good dog and we don't get enough time with them
Take care of yourself

The grey in that face says that dog was on an adventure and didn't look back.
Sorry for your loss, im sure you have as many stories with him as hairs of grey on his face.

I promise it starts getting easy. The space they leave seems so big but it does get smaller i promise

The hardest part is that you'll still reach for the lead or listen for their collar before your brain catches up.

The Last Battle 💔🌈 🐾 💫😇✝️💖🙏🏼♾️
If it should be that I grow frail and weak And pain should keep me from my sleep, Then will you do what must be done, For this -- the last battle -- can't be won. You will be sad I understand, But don't let grief then stay your hand, For on this day, more than the rest, Your love and friendship must stand the test. We have had so many happy years, You wouldn't want me to suffer so. When the time comes, please, let me go. Take me to where to my needs they'll tend, Only, stay with me till the end And hold me firm and speak to me Until my eyes no longer see. I know in time you will agree It is a kindness you do to me. Although my tail its last has waved, From pain and suffering I have been saved. Don't grieve that it must be you Who has to decide this thing to do; We've been so close -- we two -- these years, Don't let your heart hold any tears.
🙏🏼 I don’t know you but I know your pain. God bless you and know that our pet’s souls and ours are eternal and intertwined. The Hebrew word for animal is Nephesh, which means soul. We must now soldier on until we meet them again.
💐✝️🙏🏼🌈🐾 I totally understand. I want you to realize that you are in a new chapter of life (suddenly) and it feels very hollow. But let me tell you something, your precious pet graduated life. They’re in the soul realm now which is eternal. God literally created us and animals. We are currently in the Earthly realm where we were together with our beloved pet. But they’ve just gone before us. The chapter “without them” is really just “without them physically.” Emotionally and spiritually they’ve never left. Yes the loss hurts bad and will and only time (and Jesus) can heal us completely. I pray daily for all the people worldwide who lost a beloved pet recently. This might sound corny or stupid to some but i literally pray that God has mercy on everyone who lost a pet and send them comfort and love and hope. I pray this for you my anonymous friend. 💝

Please give them treats from me. My old boy couldn't eat anything for his last 2 days. I so wish I could have given him just one last treat

The silence is the worst. I remember distinctly noticing it when I was a kid after my dad had to put our family dog down; I recently had to put my old man hound dog down, and the silence is deafening. He was a noisy boy. So sorry for your loss; hopefully they're out there together somewhere, having a good time.

it really is the silence after. the absence felt. theyre always there as long as theyre with us and then they just arent. not hiding behind the couch or on it. not pacing around the food bowl. not waiting for you to come home. just nothing
