Mrs B, I love your story, I love how much your sweet dog was loved, and I love the way you memorialized him in your heart, and I love that you are loved enough by your dear friend to gift you with such an important treasure.......hugs to you.

I saw this when you posted it and started bawling my eyes out. I can relate on so many levels. I've avoided coming back to comment because of the waterworks

It is a beautiful piece and a wonderful way to remember your boy.

Wishing you the best and sending you healing thoughts and prayers.

I can so relate to this post, having lost animals close to my heart. Lovely pendant, it's a great way to remember him.

Thank you for your very kind words. Frankly, as Christmas approaches, my husband and I are experiencing a growing sense of dread. For a woman who has loved Christmas above any day of the year for all her life, I suspect this holiday has forever changed for me. We normally spend the day with friends, but this year we'll be going up to the vet hospital where our darling was put to sleep and, in the middle of the night at the exact time of his death, we will be giving the overnight staff at the emergency vet hospital Christmas cookies and cake. It's the closest we can be to our boy to commemorate the first anniversary of his death, so we're going to take the opportunity.

I do love my pendant - it's solid and beautiful and a combination of memories and love. Thank you for your interest in it; it's the most precious piece I own.

Precious heart, precious dog, precious person, precious souls. Hugs.

It's a beautiful piece of jewelry and a beautiful tribute to your beloved dog. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Beautiful.
Just beautiful.

mrs-b, that is such a lovely way to remember the one who truly had your heart. I know how devastating it can be to lose that special one. I hope that wearing your beautiful pendant gives you some comfort.

I'm writing through the tears here. That is a beautiful tribute to a beloved family member. My heart aches at the pain you're feeling. I know that pain well (it's been 2 years since I lost my Felix and it still hurts).

This is a truly beautiful post.

Such a wonderful keepsake! A beautiful treasure to remember a beautiful part of your life. I too wear a gold bracelet engraved with my dear Yorkie, Annabelle's name. She passed away at 16 years old on 5/20/17. Big hugs sent your way.

This is a beautiful way to memorialize a cherished friend and family member. I hope that this brings you the same comfort that your pup did.

@HappyNewLife @JDDN @Matata @Catmom @KaeKae @Lookinagain @elle_71125 @Loreal @metall -

Thank you for your warm thoughts. DH and I have seriously considered getting another puppy. But it's just too soon for us, so we're going to push it back a year or so and see what comes down the pipeline. The right four-legged person will emerge when the time is right, and he'll be wanted and adored with no reservations and without having to live in anyone else's shadow.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful pendant inspired by an even more beautiful soul.
Sometimes we're blessed to have a really special love share some time with us in this life; they never really leave us completely.

Sending comforting thoughts and gentle hugs.

I love this post. I have a couple Great Danes and they are my beating hearts. I love one of them so much that I plan to name my child after her. Ha ha. True though!
