My friend's dog died!

well this is part n parcel of life..mayb the dog's soul is much more happier in heaven.

I had some three dogs some years back. My uncle took one dog which was boxer. I still miss my dog and have no words to express regarding sorrow I have when I miss him. Pets importance sometimes become more than our family to us. I am not able to forget my boxer still. I think you can just tell your friend that her dog will now be taken care by god himself. ( If your friend is a young one.) Other thing which you can do is get her another dog so that she can forget her dog for sometime and can conc. on this new one. ( I don't think that even this will work. ) But anyway try these .

its really hard to cheer someone up who lost a pet. i would just tell her how sorry you are for her, and then just go on with normal conversations, or activities. time is only the thing that will make her feel better.

Sometimes the best thing to do is listen. Quite often people are happy if your there just to listen. I know that sometimes they may want you to respond, I find it's best to respond just a little bit, that way you will hopefully not say anything wrong.
