Dying with Grace

Whether it is an unexpected loss or a planned event, losing a pet is always an emotional experience. Sometimes the trauma of the event is so great, that we lose connection with our animal. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Grief often builds up when we feel uncertain about a decision, like we don’t have any control—and especially when we feel something was left unsaid.

I have helped many people decide when and how to say goodbye to their beloved animals. This discussion helps both the people and the animals prepare for this big transition and it leads to a more peaceful departure.

I am able to talk to an individual animal or the whole herd or pack to help them prepare for what is happening. I’ve helped horses who’ve been longtime pasture mates, dogs and cats who’ve lived together and even a companion goat who was distraught at the loss of his favorite horse! And through it all I’ve helped animals and their people build their relationship through this transition time.

“In my opinion, one of our biggest responsibilities as animal owners is to help them pass in a way that is as peaceful and as pain free as possible. Over the past decade, Liz has helped me and my animals find the right time and way to navigate end-of-life decisions, helping create an experience that has left me feeling even more connected to my animals after they’ve passed.” -Mica, Denver, CO

Animals often have a surprising level of clarity about their passing and a knowing of when it is time to go. They have a matter-of-fact approach to pain—they often know at what point the pain has surpassed their quality of life and they are able to communicate this. Animal communication is possible before or after passing, and, in the event of an accident, can help animals that are lost or confused by the shock of the trauma.

Like us, animals often want to let us know what we have meant to them and what they wish for us in the future.

If you are hurting from the loss of a dear pet, please help me guide you through this difficult time so that you can cherish the experiences you have had together. Death doesn’t have to put an end to the love and support you have shared. In fact, it can strengthen it.
