The best book on the grief of losing a pet

I was devastated after our dog died quite suddenly. The house was too quiet so I ended up at the library (its a different kind of quiet there). That was when I found this book. Christine explains your children's reaction and how to help them. She also validates your feelings and helps you cope. This book was a light in a very dark time of my life. I will always have a copy to share with others and read when I need to.

Wonderful and helpful book

This book really helped me when my dog died. It covers subjects such as how we relate to pets, ways people grieve, pets that die suddenly or after a long illness, choosing euthanasia, helping children when a pet dies, and many other topics. My dog died after a long illness and that section was very good for me. It is a very well written, easy to read book.
