Sometimes the most loving thing we can offer
isn’t a solution, but a steady presence.

For those with aging or terminally ill dogs, your care matters, even when the outcome can’t be changed. 🐕🕯️

This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10
a brown wire-haired pup stands on a wooden deck in a grassy yard. he looks at us with golden eyes and his right ear flipped inside out. he has a pipe-shaped stick in his mouth, giving him the appearance of a sophisticated and dapper gentleman. just give him a deerstalker cap and a cloak, and he'd give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money.

Fostering a dog on hospice isn’t about fixing or saving.
It’s about comfort. Presence.

A soft place to rest, a steady human nearby, and the dignity of being loved all the way through. 🐾

Losing a loved one can be an intensely stressful experience that can take a toll on one’s mental and physical health. The #grieving process can cause physical symptoms from bodily pain and a weakened immune system, to stomach upset and fatigue.
