  1. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPY birthday, pretty girl.
  2. They tell you not to cry. They tell you that it's just a dog, not a human being. They tell you that the pain will be over. They tell you that the animals don't know that they have to die. They tell you that it's important not to let him suffer. They tell you that you can have another one. They tell you it's going to happen to you. They tell you that there is more pain. But they don't know how many times you've looked into your dog’s eyes. They don't know how many times you and your dog have looked into darkness alone. They don't know how many times your dog was the only one who was by your side. They don't know how much fear you have. at night when you wake up with your grief. They don't know how many times your dog slept near you. They don't know how much you've changed since the dog has become a part of your life. They don't know how many times you hugged him when he was sick. They don't know how many times you've acted like you didn't see his hair getting whiter. They don't know how many times you've talked to your dog, the only one who really hears. They don't know that it was just your dog who knew you were in pain. They don't know what it feels like to see your old dog trying to say hello. They don't know that if things went wrong, the only one who didn't go is your dog. They don't know that your dog trusts you every moment of his life, even in the last. They don't know how much your dog loved you and how it is enough for him to be happy, because you loved him. They don't know that crying for a dog is one of the most noble, significant, true, clean and warmest things you can do. They don't know when the last time you moved him with trouble... made sure it didn’t hurt him. They don't know what it felt like to pet their face in the last moments of their life. In Memory of all those who went over the bridge. You all have a place forever in our hearts
  3. Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.......................MANNY!!!
  4. Another one: Prayer for the Death of a Beloved Pet By Rabbi Barry H. Block O Lord our God, we come before You this day in sadness. (Pet’s name), who brought us so much joy in life, has now died. (His/Her) happy times in our family’s embrace have come to an end. We miss (pet’s name) already. Help us, O God, to remember the good times with (pet’s name). Remind us to rejoice in the happy times (he/she) brought to our home. Let us be thankful for the good life we were blessed to give to (him/her). We are grateful to You, God, for creating (pet’s name), for entrusting (him/her) to our care, and for sustaining (him/her) in our love for a measure of time. We understand that all that lives must die. We knew that this day would come. And yet, O God, we would have wanted one more day of play, one more evening of love with (pet’s name). O God, as we have taken care of (pet’s name) in life, we ask that You watch over (him/her) in death. You entrusted (pet’s name) to our care; now, we give (him/her) back to You. May (pet’s name) find a happy new home in Your loving embrace. As we remember (pet’s name), may we love each other more dearly. May we care for all Your creatures, for every living thing, as we protected the blessed life of (pet’s name). May (his/her) memory bless our lives with love and caring forever. Amen.
  5. Modified Mourner’s Kaddish (Transliteration and Translation) Most Jews who were raised reciting the Mourner’s Kaddish at a loved one’s death or yartzheit find great comfort and release in saying the prayer, especially in the company of others. It felt very important to me to be able to say the Kaddish when my pets, and then service dogs, died. However, the standard form of the prayer refers to “all of Israel” (all Jews), which felt neither inclusive of non-human animals nor of people I was mourning who were not Jewish. I recited it anyway, but I wanted a better way. Mourner’s Kaddish (Modified) Yitga-dal v’yit-ka-dash sh’may raba, v’yam leech mal-chu-tay, b’alma deevra chi-roo-tay, b’chai-yay-chon uv-yo-maychon, uv-cha-yay d’chol bayt yishvay tehval, ba-a-ga-lah u-viz-man kareev, v’imru oh-meyn. Y’hay sh’may ra-ba m’va-rach l’olam ool-ol-may ol-may-yah. Yit-bar-rach v’yish-ta-bach, v’yit-pah-ar v’yit-ro-mam, v’yit-na-say v’yit-ha-dar, v’yit-a-leh, v’yit’halal sh’may d’kud sho b’richu; l’ay-la min kol bir-chatah v’shee-rata, tush-b’cha-ta v’ne-cheh-mah-tah, da-a-mee-ron b’alma, v’imru, oh-meyn. V’hay sh’lo-mo ra-ba min sh’may-yah, v’chay-im olaynu v’yal kol yishvay tehval v’imru, oh-mayn. O-seh shalom bimromahv. Hu ya-ah-seh shalom. Aleynu v’yal kol yishvay tehval, v’imru, oh-mayn. Mourner’s Kaddish (Amended) — An English Translation May it be magnified and may it be sanctified Your great name in the world you created according to your will. May the world establish and fulfill in your life and in your days and in the life of all creation soon and near in time and say, Amen. May your great name be praised forever, and ever and ever. May it be praised and may it be blessed and may it be glorified and may it be upraised and may it be elevated, and may it be honored and may it be exalted and may it be extolled, the name of the Holy One, Blessed Be, beyond all words of praise, words of song, words of blessing, and words of comfort that are uttered in this world, and say, Amen. May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us and for all G-d’s creation; and say, Amen. May G-d who creates peace in the celestial heights, create peace for us and for all creation; and say, Amen.
