"Can the grief process for the death of a beloved pet, particularly a dog, be as painful as for the death of a close relative.
I am convinced it can!"
Not quite as intense but it's very similar similar. I think it depends on your relationship with the dead person and the pet |

Absolutely, I lost my Rottie last August and have never felt heartbreak like it. |

Losing our dog was so painful. I have nothing to compare that with but it was enough that 5 years later I still don't want to experience that again. Sure we have got on with our lives but he is never forgotten as he was part of our family and I still miss him often x |

It certainly can.
I booked a week off work when I lost girl dog. Working with the public there's every chance I'd have done something unacceptable so knew I needed some space and time.
I still weep for her now and it's been a year and half |

Absolutely, it's one of the most heartbreaking things saying goodbye to your dog. I've done it once and I can't imagine doing it again. My beautiful pup is my life, unless you have that bond yourself it's hard to explain to others  |

Until I had experienced it then I would have said no. But when I lost my precious cat it knocked me for six.
If you raise and train an animal, spend love and time on it, make it part of your family, you are always going to mourn that loss. You'll have lost a family member. |

Yes. It is. I had to say goodbye to mine very recently and I still feel as if there is very little colour in the world.
And I'm still heartbroken over losing my old dog in September 2013. It doesn't go away. |

I think so, my beloved doggo left for her rainbow bridge a year ago on Thursday. I miss her terribly still. The grieving process for me has hit me hard, far worse than for some relatives but no where near as much as others! All are different x |

For me it was worse. I’ve still not got over the loss of my beloved bulldog. He was my constant companion for 13 years. The emptiness in the house has taken a long time to get used to.
It’s a unique pain. |

Ohh my goodness yes it does, I had my poochie for 16 1/2 years, it will be 11 years on the 28th May  some days I can look at her picture and smile, other days I cannot as it's tears if I do. She gave me unconditional love, always there to give a furry cuddle when down or up set, always there tail wagging and some one to go on long walks with...Miss my poochie!! |
