The death of a pet is perhaps one of the hardest life moments to deal with and to accept. It seems especially true for dog owners. So often, there’s a bond that makes the dog’s death feel more like the passing of a family member. The video below has gone viral after dog trainer, Jerri Scherff, shared how she spotted a man walking everyday with a dog leash…but there’s no dog attached to it. To see that you might wonder if the man was out searching for his lost dog. Jerri knew it was more than that. She suspected that the man’s dog had passed away…so she stopped one day and asked him what she already knew to be true. As you’ll see in her post below, he opened up to Jerri that his dog was his best friend and that he was grieving. I love how she hugged him and opened up about her own loss of her dog. The takeaway from this: if you sense someone needs comfort or a friend, don’t hesitate to reach out…even if you don’t know them. Kindness matters~
