A woman from the United States received a letter from her veterinarian shortly after this horrific event, which touched her deeply. It is not every day that you see such a moving sympathy.
On the Internet platform Reddit, a user posted a photo of her beloved Tinker pug, which she recently had to put to sleep. Shortly after saying goodbye, a card fluttered into the mailbox for her from her veterinary practice.
Inside she found a piece of paper with a poem, under which were two of her dog’s paw prints. The card read « Forever remembered – Forever loved – Forever in our hearts ».
Inside was the writing « Our compassionate thoughts are with you at this time » and many employees had written small messages inside. « My sincere condolences for your loss. Tinker was such a special girl and she stole all of our hearts. We will miss her, » wrote Dr. Curry.
« My condolences for your loss. I will miss seeing Tinker, she was incredibly cute, » wrote staffer Kayla. The four other messages expressed similar feelings of sympathy.
Also included in the envelope was a small plastic bag containing Tinker’s golden hair. Other users of the platform were also drawn to these loving messages. « That was very caring, it’s good to be reminded that the nursing staff also feels some of the pain, » wrote one.
Another said: « Wow. That’s the nicest thing I’ve seen in a long time. » Many more shared their own experiences of euthanizing their beloved pets.
« I had to let go of my baby about a month ago, the poem brought me to tears. I’ve been struggling with the decision and those words mend my heart a bit so thanks for sharing, » someone commented.
