I have had and lost many dogs during my lifetime on this earth of 66 years. Every time I say to myself that I am not gone get another one because it hurts so bad when you lose them. But somewhere there is always that dog that is lost and lonely or abused and neglected and needs me as bad as I need him or her and there I go again falling in love. This circle continues on for dog lovers everywhere until we die. That is just the way it is and we can't help it.
I believe with all my heart that the one you lost sends the next one to you.
I'm in mourning for my pup of 12 years. Consumed with guilt I feel the need to be alone. But like you said, somewhere out there is a doggie that needs me as much as I need them.
How is it that I don’t know you, but know exactly who you are? Kindred spirits I suppose?
Did you ever see one of your dogs staring at a wall or nothing. Almost like they can say see something that we cannot. I believe that is the dimension they return to when they pass. From time to time they now gaze from that dimension into what appears nothing. They are gazing at you.. 🥰🤩That energy never leaves us.. Everything is Energy. ✌
I agree completely on that one.. I’ve lost many dogs and just lost my cat he was 16. He loved me unconditionally. I still have 4 cats so didn’t get another one. Still have another one that’s 16 . 2 long hair chihuahuas that are 9 and about probably 11 she was a rescue. Both were actually but the one that’s 9 came from a friend with his birthday and vet records. Love all my babies.. The circle will always continue. I also lost my dog a few months ago to cancer miss her so much.,
Had to say goodbye to my boy 2 weeks ago
I Got him as a puppy when I was 17 years old he was there through my first heart break, when I lost close friends and when I thought I had nobody.
He was always there
8 years later, I think back to the times we had I smile and cry. The bond we had was special and There will never be another one like him I love you Max
ThankYou for everything
My dog has saved my life from serious depression, he is the reason I am living today. Thank you for this! Cheers, Sean
thank god for dogs my dads dog saved me from a deer when i was a little kid unfortunate she died protecting me
@@AlphaWolf789 Dogs are so selfless, do happen to know the name of your father dog?
@@CinematicPenguin her name was Jenna her brother Duke was all black and took over looking after me until he passed away
Yeah they take you out of depression. My Pal was a Street dog he came for visit for petting, food and water I didn’t have a house to keep him. Two days ago He stopped visiting I started wondering why He comes right on 1:30 or 1:40 pm for visits. Then I started searching him everywhere. Then one of the uncle who saw it said. Dog died two days ago son from a Car accident. It just broke my heart. It feels like Hole that cannot be filled.
@@BiggusDickus. I am deeply sorry for your loss, I am sure in time your pain will lessen. Just remember the great times that you had with him
I come from a country where there’s still a doctrine that men shall never cry in front of anybody.
I never cried at my grandad’s funeral and he was my world..
Today my girl crossed her rainbow bridge and is running free in the sky.. I feel alone..and heartbroken.
But I felt relieved watching the video and crying in the rain..on a park bench..no one arround..although while holding her tennis ball in my hand..I felt I was not alone.
We don’t deserve dogs❤️💔
Most unfair thing about life?
Dogs have so much less breaths to breathe.
💔
Sanket Patil I don’t understand why God allow turtles to live so so long but not dogs. It’s so cruel it is so unfair I get angry over this. It’s like a cruel sense of humor. 😞
@@lucyelly3532 because dogs are pure souls and God needs them up there in heaven, they are here in this world to guide us, to make us better, and to make us happier.
@@lucyelly3532 Yes!! Dogs deserve longer life spans than humans, I think! Humans are often cruel, selfish, ugly creatures...while dogs are completely pure!! It's pretty obvious dogs deserve more time on earth than people, I don't know why God didn't realize that when he was designing everything.
Sanket Patil every good thing have shorter life span
God made everything the way it is, for a *reason* don’t question his pure work of light
Lance, this video is beautiful. I appreciate your kindness and feel the loss of my 13 fur babies every day. I’m 85 years old, and will always remember each one which occupies a very special place in my heart. 🐾 🇺🇸
Not everybody likes dogs.
@@eldesgraciado6690 Everyone already knows 3rd world sh*tskins don't like dogs, nobody asked. Stay in your country.
@@eldesgraciado6690What an unwarranted and shitty thing to say
I lost my dog yesterday. She had a stroke. She was healthy only 7 yrs old. She just woke up and boom she was paralyzed. Hold your babies tight. She was the best dog!
I lost my dog today, he changed my life forever. He taught me how to live strong and happy despite the odds. Rest is peace simba
God bless its soul..
"Until one has loved a dog, a part of one's soul remains unawakened" ~ Anatole France
I love this quote! Dogs are truly sent from God I believe with my whole heart.
Quote of a sociologically impaired person.
@@CGJUGO80 shut up . You people are the ones missing out on life thanks to your sky hero .
Dogs are a mirror of who and what we should and can be. Dog backwards is god, and dogs are his gift to us. Unconditional love, companionship, trust and forgiveness, always. Nothing truer than a dog, bless them.
So true
It's God always have the g capitalized
@@josh_the_alien
Really??
You will stop at grammar and miss the whole message???
Agreed.....dogs are God's Special Gift to us.
God* but you are soo right! Dogs are...I don't know what to say
My veterinarian has a sign in his lobby: Heaven is the place that every dog you've ever loved comes to greet you when you arrive. Dear God, please make it so.
"When the right dog finds the right human". I love that line and great video.
Thanks for sharing, Dude. Only dog Lovers know the measure of such unconditional love and devotion. Blessings to all dog lovers out there.
My guy truuuu
may god bless you my man
Very True
Omg so touching I'm in tears here god bless you for taking another chance even though your heart is broken.
God bless you for that short but powerful clip it said it all
74 dislikes?
How can one possibly dislike such a heart warming video
It did bring tears
Because the world has assholes
Because there are AHoles who have fortunately never been touched by the Black Dog, forgive and bless them!
The one true friend who will always be at your side even when you might not deserve it
My dog that I watched grow up, just died today... Before I got him I had a dog that was old but he lived by my side for my first 8 years of my life.. this one that died today didn't watch and help me grow up but I helped him and watched him grow up... It's hard for me as it was when I lost my first dog in first grade, now I'm in eight... Even though they two were in a small part of my life I will always remember them, cause the ones we love the most in life leave phisically but there will always be in our hearts. Ik I'm not the only one who lost their dogs, but everyone that has can relate to eachother and everyone knows how it feels... Then might not be humans but you love them and sometimes maybe even talk to them like to humans, but to matter what, when they leave, you remember them forever untill the day you die.. RIP Riki und Roky, i'll never forget you two.. 💔💔💔
Dogs are a reason for living....
Barbara Adelman my dog saved my life. I won't take it too deep but ptsd is real, but its not as deep as the love of a dog that picks you.. he isn't my dog, he isn't my pet. He is my family, my protector and my best friend.
Definitely
Barbara Adelman And living becomes so hard to do when your reason for living passes away way before her time. She was always my reason to keep going when in depression, and now I am all alone, without my girl. No reason here anymore.....
But she would want me to go on, so that’s what keeps me going. For now...
Jerome Blandford I agree
I agree
I've had a dog by my side since I was 5. Going on 40-years of being a dog dad and 4-wonderful little beasts. My current buddy just turned 9. He's got a gray muzzle and slowing down a little but he's always there for me. I've been damaged by military service and relationships with people but I can't imagine living without a dog by my side. There is not a day that goes by where I don't think about all my old friends. I look forward to the day when we'll all meet again.
2 1/2 months ago I had to put down my 14yo lab. I feel like I lost part of myself that day. The unconditional love a dog has for a family cannot be replicated in anything else.
I sent my Baby Girl to the bridge 2/29/24. I'd had her nearly 14 years. I miss her so much. her sister, too. I mention Rosie to the two I have now, hoping they will remember her as time passes.
When he said “he was great to me” I fucking lost it I’m in a pool of tear rn
Yeah that broke me too. Bless dogs they are such a wonderful thing in this world.
Dogs are not your whole life but they make your life whole....😢😭
beautifully said
ravinder soni dogs lives are too short. That is their only flaw 😞
Another one is a dog isn’t there for your whole life fe but you are for them
Sadly we are there old life 😕
ravinder soni
I have always said that.
💛💙
Only another dog lover would understand! And I do!!
yeah.. ❤
I made a video about my dog too 😁 🐶
It’s been almost 9 years since my Golden Retriever passed away. I miss her everyday.
If this does not touch your heart, you don't have one...
The purest souls.... if you have lost your furry friend best way to honor that love and bond you shared is to rescue another and give that love to another needy animal
It's been 5 years since my lab passed away. And I still miss her.
2015 for me. Miss my girl.
it's been 3 years since mine, and I still can't think about him without getting all teary eyed. I have another one now named Zeke but I still miss my Rocky.
I know what you mean... it's been over two years since my dog has passed and I am to this day having trouble getting over her. I miss her so so much
It's such a shame that such beautiful loyal animals get to spend such a short time on this earth with us.
You should always
Absolutely beautiful. Their lives are never long enough, but the lessons they teach us, live on forever ❤
stumbled upon this today, 6 months after I lost my k9 best friend. I'd say he's sending me a sign 💕 love and light to anyone who has lost a loyal companion. it isnt easy.
Dogs are the most amazing gift one can have in their life. The bond is unbreakable and the love between pawrent and furbabe is the most truest form of LOVE your heart and soul can experience. 💜🐾❤🐾🙏
Terra Wareham My heart still aches for one special dog in my life. He made me realize that something was wrong with me. I kept thinking that this dog loves to sniff my abdomen for whatever reason that was in his head. Finally going to the doctor and finding out that I had major digestive issues diagnosed by my Goldie I thank God for putting Butter into my life. Without this bond, I would not be here today. 🌹🐾🐶
Terra Wareham obviously you haven’t had children
Aaw pawrent, what a cute word :D
I agree, after the love of Jesus Christ, Lord and Saviour, who died for you and me
thanks for the good cry.
PeglegMedia - lol
np
Very true
No shit. I never cry and this had me shedding a man tear in the shower.
Only who own a dog can understand the unconditional love towards each other.
I miss my little guy tremendously every single day. He was my little shadow and I his. We sure had an amazing time throughout the years.
Nothing can explain the love a true animal lover experiences with their pet. The single best life lesson/experience anyone could ever have.
This is a heartwarming video of a bond between a man & his pet dog who passed away in old age 😭
so sad, I love dogs so much
I honestly watch this video a couple times a week. After I lost my Buddy This vdeo really helped me realize that getting a new dog is just the natural order of things. Nobody should feel guilty about getting a new dog. I got my new dog Duke in remembrance of Buddy. We are bonding quite well. Thank you so much for this video!
My new dog is Duke too!
That's where I'm struggling.... Been a year and a half sense my Near dogger passed away and I wanna get a new dog but feel guilty
@@tacticaloutdoors7553 I used to go to the SPCA once a week. I wanted to see if It was time for me to get a new dog. I was a mess as I walked through the place. One thing that helped me with the guilt is realizing even though I was in pain, the dogs at the shelter need you more than you need them. Save a pup, adopt in the name Dogger!
No you shouldn't feel guilty because they live you & it's selfless. They only want to see you smiling & happy & they send you your next dog so there is no reason to feel guilty. Just thank them for that final gift of love to & love the new dog with everything you have because that's why they were sent to you in the first place
My 13 year old yellow lab just passed. I'm heart broken. But I know life and the house has a hole in it. When the time is right, I will get another dog. But I'll never replace my Summer girl. Just start another story.
Dogs are 100% better than humans 😫😭😭😢😢😭😢😢😢😢😢😢
madison Pharis more like 1,000,000% better than humans
Purity of heart
@@hattienuff1405 no malice. No jealousy. No nastiness. Just pure love.
Better than bad humans 💕
So true...
I lost my baby girl of almost 15 years a couple of weeks ago, the worst pain loss and guilt I have ever felt in my life. I love and miss you terribly Josie, I will see you at the gates
❤️ only a true dog lover could understand this wonderful video! I always wonder if my,Lab,would be mad at me for getting a new,companion,when his time comes. After watching this,I think he’d want me to give another,dog,as good of a life as I’ve given to him and he’s given to me ❤️
It’s been almost 3 years since my shih-tzu passed away. I still can’t think about him without getting chocked up a bit. I miss you Tucker, maybe some day we’ll meet again 😔😭
The story made me cry and hold my dog tighter than I've ever hed her before, the love I have for her can not be measured. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful thing .
I come back to watch this on the anniversary of each of my dogs passing's every year, even with new dogs to take the pain away.
People that have never had a dog always ask "Why would you get another one when you know you're eventually going to be left with all this heartache again?"
It's true, every dog that has ever left us has taken a piece of our heart away with it. I still hurt missing each one of my dogs a few times a year, but people like us are born with more heart to give than the average person. All the loss eventually gets overtaken by the love that used to be there through the memories that still are. The heart may never mend back to what it was before, but we start off with a surplus to give so by the day we leave this world to meet all the furry friends we've lost throughout our lives we are back to an average size heart again, just in enough time for it to swell up back to it's starting size when we see them again.
What a touching video😪 ❤ Dogs are the best companions and sometimes I feel like we don't even deserve them!❤
Rancho The Dog
♥️
They are with us furever...always in our heart!😔💔🐕
Karen Smith ‘fur’ever I see what you did their
Yes they are in hearts forever❤
Just beautiful. Lost our beautiful Goldendoodle 12 days ago at 12.5. Such a huge part of our family, he'll remain in our hearts forever. Cherish every single moment with you dog, they're the best non human companion in the world. x
Entire volumes of poetry could be written about the love of a dog, but this beautiful video pretty much says it all.
Thank you for showing exactly how we all feel when we lose our beloved companions. It is a bond that can never be broken, even in death.
You're so right Debra... You seems to have the heart of gold with the way you reason... How are you doing? I hope that you're very fine?
No truer words ever spoken
I watch this about once a year just to remember all my girls. Winnie, Bailey, Daisy....I miss you ladies. Molly & Lucy are filling your paw prints nicely but no one will ever replace you.
Best relationship in the world! If you haven't truly loved a dog a part of your soul hasn't been opened yet. Thanks, big hug!
The feels... dogs have their way of drawing out our emotions...
thats for sure
Damn these onions!! 😭😪
I said goodby to my shepherd yesterday after 13 years together. This video helps me grieve.
i'm get old now .. down to my last two . loved them all
My wife and I got a puppy 4 weeks ago. This morning I found out from my ex, that my best furry friend Leo passed away last night. He was a black Labrador/Staffordshire bull terrier cross that we (my ex and I) rescued from a kennel at 6 months old. So many amazing memories, but one thing that stands out above everything is the unconditional love that came from that beautiful animal. During the highs, and lows, he was there by my side, always happy for a hug, and always happy to listen. Rest in Peace Leo. In my heart always.
Anyone who says dogs don't know jealousy or discontent has never really loved a dog. They have every emotion that humans have. Their redeeming quality is they don't tend to dwell on the negative.
So spot on. Never break their trust, they will always have your back. Give them the best life possible. So unfair life is too short. Thank you for sharing..
I lost my girl, Belle, to cancer 6 months ago. This video helped with the healing. Thank you.
I lost my dog Shelby when I was 8, she was 13 and had hip displasia and some sort of stomach problem, I cried my self to sleep for a month, I had lost my best friend since birth. She got me through some tough times but i know she is waiting for me.
When you have a love like that you never forget it. My love was called Norton. When I pass. I know my Norton will be the first one to greet me. 😧 Thank you so much Lance for the great story. 💋
Diane Bruns Right at the gate. He will be there for you.
I literally started sobbing when he was at the grave. My dog died seven years ago and it still hurts.
“The dog is a gentleman; I hope to go to his heaven not man's.”Mark Twain
this never gets old
Have you ever spelled dog backwards...
Then you’ll know why their love is so unconditional... once in a while beyond understanding ...
What a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing ...
Watched this over and over so many times while wanting a dog for a few years, but just wasn't the right time in life to have one. Now I have the most beautiful chocolate lab that looks just like this one. Thank you for this amazing video of describing the beautiful K9 bond humans have. "It's an unbreakable bond, strong as a chord of 3 strands. When the right dog finds the right human, it's as if it always was, and always will be."
One week ago today right at this time as I write this my buddy Archie passed. I could not have found this video at a better time. RIP Arch I pray I see you and my other bud Ned again.
Why you guys can't stay with us forever.... 😭
I wish, that would be awesome
Only the good die young.
I've suffered the hearbreak of 3 of my best friends, I lost my last one from spleen cancer 12/06/19. I miss him every day and I don't understand why they weren't given more time to be with us. I've never met a dog, I didn't fall in love with. My wife and daughter both call me the "Dog Whisperer", because they've seen first hand how dogs take to me immediately after spending a couple of seconds with me, they lower my blood pressure as I suffer from hypertension. A feeling of absolute calm comes over me and I feel at one with the universe. Never could two things be so right for one another, than a person and their dog.
@@jumpercable20 woww!! What a story!
So that they can go and get relieved from this cruel world.
The right one always finds you
Dogs make life so much more vibrant. I couldn't possibly live without one. No one is as pure as a dog. If your lonely and looking for a friend, a dog is the best choice. The only being that won't betray you.
Dog. This small, single word, that describes unconditional love perfectly.
My Oscar and Roxy just passed and we just adopted our Koko. This was very much needed.
OMG! You were right about having tissues ready. The love of a dog is like no other.
I know that's the truth
My dog simba passed away from old age in 2015 my mom got him when I was 4 years old we gave him a funeral with full military honors RIP simba 2004 to 2015 miss you buddy
You live a short time for your dog, your dog lives his entire life just for you.
Dogs are the best
That's all have to say
There is no word that could describe them perfectly
The voiceover on this is VERY well done.
Why dogs are the best companions
1. They are always in good mood
2. They do not judge us for our flaws
3. They know when we are sad and how to comfort us
4. Even if they are in pain they will always try to make us happy
5. They will never abandon you for something better
Thank you so much for this. Since by baby passed 3 weeks ago I watch it everyday. God bless
Tear jerker, get out the hankies. It was a beautiful film. Thanks for sharing for us dog-lovers out there. You made my day.
Thanks so much for letting me know you liked it.
Took the words right out of my heart.
Thanks for sharing100% only true dog lovers know the tru meaning ,tears to my eyes 🙏
This bond goes back thousands of years. Still has not changed. Just wish they had more time with us. 75-80yrs would be nice.
Wife: “It’s either the dog or it’s me!” Me:” bye then
This needs to be trending
...there’s nothing like the love & humor of a Boxer!
I lost my 8 year-old doggie Flo through euthanasia 7 weeks ago! A Lab mix, she suffered with several long-term medical issues, the final being cancer! I adopted her about 3 years ago, my 5th adoption in 30 years- all adults/seniors, and they all rest under a large fir tree in my yard! Every one of these best friends taught me so much about life, and as I've grown older, now 74, I realize how each loss becomes ever more difficult to bare! This has truly been the most miserable 7 weeks of my life, that I can tell you! I had such incredible relationships with them all, such a very sweet and loving pals, and I love and miss them more than mere words can possibly express! Flo's departure has been especially hard, and it's impossible to describe my pain and grief! Dogs are a gift to man, and one of the best there is! Any true dog lovers out there will readily understand what I'm saying. Bless all doggies, and all of my loyal departed girls! And please remember, ADOPT, don't shop!
Beautiful story. Beautiful narration. Beautiful music. Thanks for reminding us to treasure every moment we can with out beloved friend.
I TOLD MYSELF I WASNT GONNA CRY BUT IM CRYING
My dog name is Taylor, me and my wife love her so much..thank you taylor for being with us
I know just how you feel..my 80 lb.fur baby passed away on October 4th 2019 and still today not an hour goes by that I don't think about him, I miss him dearly..I hope to rescue another dog real soon ,because as I have always said"dogs are more loyal then humans "..God bless.
Attention men, don’t live your life without experiencing a k-9 friendship such as this, it’s a life lesson ordained by God.
If there are no dogs in heaven I want to go where they went.

Amen! Eternity without animals sounds more like Hell than Heaven to me
Sometimes I watch this because I know it’ll make me cry. A touching reminder of how much I love my dogs.
I didn’t start crying until I saw the old dog’s name was gunner. That was my chocolate lab’s name and this short film touched on our special bond perfectly. Thank you.
I miss you Rick. RIP dude, you were the best
I AM IN TEARS. THIS WAS SO SWEET
Thanks, i'm glad you liked it.
Nothing .Nothing in this world can give us their Unconditional Loves..but DOGS..🐶🐶💓💕🌵🌵🌷🌷🌲🌲💐💐💐
I had to have my Dogue de Bordeaux cross with an American bulldog put down yesterday I’ve never felt so much sorrow and guilt in my life feel like I let her down, she helped me so so much. I love you Pip
This so got me. Beautifully done.
RIP sweetheart
My girl died yesterday,she was 15,old and tired,riddled with cancer. We went with her,right till the end,she went peacefully,surrounded by love.
As soon as he said "I know he was to me" I'm bawling
