Losing a pet is just like losing any other loved one in our lives. The fact that they might have a few more legs and a bit more body hair doesn’t mean they aren’t just as important or just as much a part of our hearts as the rest of our family.

Unfortunately, their shorter lifespans make every bond a bittersweet one when it’s time to say goodbye. Everyone mourns in their own way, but looking back on the time together is often the best first step to healing. These first and last photos of pets with their humans show how wonderful those relationships can be.
