From Sad to Glad

Many books have been written about how we grieve when our pets die or are lost, but little has been written about how our pets grieve. While animals of all kinds have the capacity to grieve, this book focuses mainly on dogs, one of the most widely owned pets in the Western world. When a pet dies, we may spend a lot of time feeling sad and even lonely; but we rarely consider the other animals in the household. Remember when we go through big changes, our dogs, like us, are creatures of habit and they can be highly emotional and subject to insecurities. Dogs miss their playmates as much as we do. When a dog's owner dies, it can be a devastating event. They may grieve for days or even months and no one may notice This book will make you aware of what kinds of situations cause dogs to grieve, as well as what you can do to help your pet. The ideas are presented in a straight forward practical way.
