What A Dog Loves ... Is for us to Love Again

Just came across this article and want to pass it on - How To Cope with Losing A Pet .

One of its suggestions really came home to me:

While emotionally you may not be prepared to welcome another pet into your home right away, consider volunteering at a local animal shelter. Helping to care for a homeless pet, a pet in desperate need of a caring human, may help with your grieving.

I Love that. Dogs are all about Love & giving, giving, giving. This is a fine way to give back in their memory, receive comfort and some of that special kind of lovin.' Who knows who we might end up bringing home for supper ...

P.S. I start my volunteer work next Saturday. So excited! Will be walking dogs one afternoon a week during the work week. They really need more help during the week - could you slip away for a couple of hours too?
