Pet Loss Support

Know that you are not alone and your Pet is not 'just a Pet'.

They are so much more than a Pet.. your friend, your family, your heartbeat, your soulmates! 

​

We are always here if you wish to speak and here are other resources that you can navigate at your own pace,

in your own space...

Our Pets are our sources of unconditional love and devotion, woven into our daily routines. When they are gone, their absence leaves a deep void. OVC Pet Trust offers Pet Parents multiple resources to help you through your emotional journey; in hopes that you find comfort, understanding and support.

This heartfelt noble project by OVC Pet Trust at the Ontario Veterinary College, University of Guelph; is a six part video series of real stories of love, loss, hope, inspiration and healing. It reminds us that the bonds we share with our Pets continue long after they're gone. It was created in hopes to help those who grieve their Pets in silence, in guilt, without any support, language or resources to cope.
