Pet Hospice
4 hours recorded class
The death of our beloved pets is inevitable, as their lives are shorter than our own. For many children, the loss of a pet is their first encounter with death—offering parents a meaningful opportunity to guide them toward a healthy understanding of grief. For others, the loss of an animal companion cuts far deeper than society often acknowledges. And for death doulas, supporting families through pet loss can be a natural and compassionate extension of this work.
