I'm so sorry. I'm still not totally over losing our dog in 2017 (we've since gotten another dog, who is fine but not the same).

I’m so sorry, Daisy. This is a beautiful tribute to Gracie. Sending much love and light to your family. Losing a pet is so incredibly hard. We still mourn the loss of our beloved Max, our black Lab who left us too soon a few years ago. Hugs to you. 💗

A beautiful tribute to sweet Gracie, Daisy. Loved this piece and hearing about how she was a bridge through Ellie’s later childhood years. Touching and reflects all of your love for her.

Oh it’s so hard to lose these beings. For me it’s the uncomplicated love offered and received. My heart goes out to you all.
