I feel that Iâ??ve slowly been learning that itâ??s okay to not have an answer. I donâ??t really know what heaven is like or where it actually is. How do you explain what a soul or a spirit is to a child? Here are 5 tips to help you navigate through these difficult conversations.http://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=137720Tue, 06 Jan 2009 12:00:00 GMThttp://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=137720Nonstop licking and chewing on your petâ??s own flesh could have serious, if not deadly, results. A transition from excessive grooming to self-mutilation occurs when a clinically significant lesion appears on a dogâ??s body, and then the animal licks itself to the point of abrasion. A few dogs donâ??t make it and die, causing their owners grief not to mention an unexpected pet memorial. http://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=137037Thu, 09 Oct 2008 12:00:00 GMThttp://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=137037Just like humans, our pets often have complications with their urinary systems. Serious ailments such as upper tract disorders are most common, while acute renal failure can progress quickly and lead to death when left untreated. The upper and lower tracts are both prone to serious malfunctions. To avoid an unexpected death and subsequent pet memorial, it is wise to know all the facts.http://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136907Mon, 22 Sep 2008 12:00:00 GMThttp://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136907Best-selling book, Merleâ??s Door, Lessons from a Freethinking Dog not only offers readers fascinating facts about the evolution of dogs and human relationships, but it is also one of the highest tributes to a dog ever published; it is a biography of Merle, not just a pet memorial. Author Ted Kerasoteâ??s story takes place in Kelly, Wyoming, where he and Merle spent time outdoors hunting, fishing and enjoying nature together. http://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136847Mon, 15 Sep 2008 12:00:00 GMThttp://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136847Todayâ??s scholars agree that cremation began during the early Stone Age -- around 3000 B.C. -- and most likely in both the Near East and in the late Stone Age across northern Europe. It has also been determined that people from around the world have honored pets upon their death and buried them in cremation pet urns at pet cemeteries for centuries.http://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136791Tue, 09 Sep 2008 12:00:00 GMThttp://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136791We've all had thoughts about wishing our dogs could live longer lives and not wanting another pet because their death is too painful.

There is usually a reason for this kind of behavior, and it is dangerous. In fact, many people have mourned the death of an over anxious pet, and the last thing anyone wants is to have to buy is a pet urn when it could have been prevented. http://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136651Wed, 20 Aug 2008 12:00:00 GMThttp://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136651There is another series of reports about mysterious illness and death in dogs from people who have pets that ate Nutro pet food.

A frightening experience for anyone, the most common reason for sudden death in cats includes either cardiomyopathy or heartworm disease. http://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136502Fri, 01 Aug 2008 12:00:00 GMThttp://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136502If you and your family have experienced the loss of a pet, or if your pet is getting older, the first thing that often comes to mind is whether or not to get another pet. And then the questions start stacking up: Should we wait or get a new pet right away? Should we wait until the older pet dies and have a pet memorial for the kids first? Would getting a new pet traumatize the older one? Often times, when one pet is getting old, and children are fond of the animal, it's a good idea to go ahead and think about introducing a new pet. http://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136407Tue, 22 Jul 2008 12:00:00 GMThttp://media.peternity.com/articles.php?include=136407
