  • I sit down today just to vent, I was having a rough time dealing with a loss in our family so I wanted to make this video to let everyone know it's okay to be sad, loss is a part of our lives.

    Girl I’m crying my eyes out watching this, I’m so sorry to hear about poor Jake 😢😢❤️ it’s always really hard to lose both a family member and best friend, Jake was such a beautiful soul and his energy will never be forgotten ❤️❤️❤️💙💙💙 Albert Einstein proved that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be changed from one form to another, and I truly believe that applies to living creatures as well, your soul is your energy, and Jakes hasn’t been destroyed, he has been transformed into something bigger then all of us, he has moved on to contribute his energy to the whole universe, Jake will forever be apart of all of everything that happens in this universe, for all of time.❤️💙

    Awwwwww sweetie. That’s so hard. What an awesome dog! You were so lucky to be a mamma to such a neat dog. It’s gonna be quiet for awhile around there... I agree. Let it out. It fricken sucks!!!! Animals should live longer. Good on the community plot. It will be beautiful. I’ll be happy to see how you guys remember Jake in the future. Hugs to you.

    It is so hard to lose a pet, I think I cried more when my dog died than I did when mom passed and I cried a LOT then. I KNOW our animals are still with us even after they leave. I watched mom pet animals that werent there just before she passed. I know it was our dog coming to get her. My heart goes out to you. sending long virtual hugs

    Awwwww. Now Jake's Grandma is crying again. Do you know, Jake was my first real relationship, with a dog? We never had pets growing up. I know I'm being partial when I say this, but, he was the best and smartest and loving dog, ever!! I will always miss that puppy face. Time will heal your heartache and replace with more happy memories. He was loved by everyone whoever had the opportunity to run into him. Hugs and kisses to you and your family.
