   Never rush out and purchase a pet that is identical to the one that your child may have just lost. In most cases, the pet and the child will know. Not only will the animal act differently than their previous pet that they loved so much, but it just isn’t the same.

2. Never run right out and get a new pet for your child because they feel lost without one. Often times, there can be resentment toward the animal because it isn’t acting the way the child’s beloved pet did and it can end up getting neglected without intentionally doing so. Allow your child to grieve for the loss of their pet before purchasing a new one.
3. Don’t avoid talking to your children about death. They need to know that their beloved furry friend is not going to come back and they need to be allowed to grieve over it. Telling them a story that you made up to make them feel better is one of the worst things that you could do according to psychologists.

Cottage Dog House Cremation Urn

Jojo was such a cute little mix-breed puppy when I found him whimpering under a tree more than 2 years ago. He was covered in dry leaves with ants crawling all over his body. He had been abandoned next to an ant hill. After he was nursed back to health, he had stayed with me ever since and grew so attached to my teenage son.

Every evening he followed my son riding on his bike to the lakeside park nearby. He enjoyed the romps and chase with other kids there. On that fateful day a week ago, he did not return home with my son from the park. Despite frantically searching the whole park while calling out for him, he failed to turn up. The following morning we found him lying on his side outside our garden. He had managed to come home on his own but obviously had been attacked. I seriously suspected it to be the pack of dogs at a nearby construction site. He was so weak when I took him to the vet. After several hours of medical attention and against my son’s protest, I had to let the vet put him to sleep. His injuries were too extensive.
