Animals are God's gift to us all, and although there will never be another "special pet or animal" in each of our lives, to replace our favorite or “special pet or animal,” no one would truly want to forget our real "special pet or animal" each of us have lost.

imageGod gives us other animals anew, that fill the voids of our loss. In this manner of God’s plan for each of us, and for the animals we take charge for, and take care of in our lives; these new pets and animals in our lives actually bless the original lost pet or animal, and also replace the void of loss with the new "spunk" of the new animal, that may even have similar traits of “special pet or animal” behavior. I am speaking from personal experience, not just blowing off at the mouth as an investigative reporter, on this most important animal issue.

The truth be told about my puppy dog named ‘Lucy:”

A few years ago, I had one 8 week old Lhasa Apso puppy that I decided to keep because she was so darn SPECIAL, and I never usually kept any pups. I named the pup "LUCY" and I kept her in a special pen in the living room for teaching 8 week old pups to expand their roaming and still keep them safe. It was the last pup of the litter. This pup I named "LUCY" just caught my heart, and I was so excited to keep her, as she was just too “SPECIAL” to let her go. Well, I left her in the pen, and went to work, this only being a few days after I decided to keep her. And there was no problem of any kind with her. When I returned home, I found "LUCY" lying DEAD at the door of the pen in my living room. I mean, there was NO EXPLANATION WHY she died. She was not sick, no illness, no signs of problems, no reason why she died in that pen, and yet she WAS DEAD. I was so torn and heart broken, I could not take it. I filled out her registration papers and put them in my car, and I have carried those papers in my car for me to see and remind me of "LUCY" for about 2-3 years now, and I refused to remove the papers from my car, visor, where I saw them all the time. Well, about 8 months ago or there about, I had a litter of Shih-Tzu pups, and I'll be damned if one of those pups, reminded me EXACTLY, of "LUCY." I prayed about it, and God told me to keep the new pup, and I am not kidding about that. I named the new pup "LUCY" and every second of every day, I now see BOTH "LUCY" and the new Dog also named "LUCY" both at the same time, all the time. One day, I spoke to my new Shih-Tzu, "LUCY" and I asked her, if she was that same "LUCY" that DIED in my pen and I showed the new "LUCY" the pen. I again asked my new dog, "ARE YOU THAT SAME LUCY THAT I LOVED AND DIED IN MY PEN?" Well, at that very moment, my new "LUCY" just started jumping for joy and going a little goofy nuts, and I now truly believe that God sent MY LUCY back to me, in a new breed of dog, very similar but not the same, and now BOTH "LUCY" dogs live with me, and Chris. MY HEART and STRESS are not at PEACE. And my "LUCY" the old, and now the new, are BOTH ALIVE and with me now, and forever. I have no need for pills, Doctors, stress or heartache, for the Lord answered my prayers, and healed my pain. And he can do the same for you, by YOU praying fore the same think to happen to you. Pray for your “special pet or animal” to be sent back to you, in another animal and ask God to tell you when he/she has arrived. If you believe it will work, it will, and you will once again, find your "special pet or animal" in another dog, cat, horse, rabbit, or other animal. But you have to allow God to work, be patient, pray, and not force the issue, and it will just happen. God knows what we each need, and want, better that we do. But you have to allow him to work within you, and not you overriding his great works and miracles, especially when it comes to the animals in our lives. Just pray and let it happen. Oh, by the way, I have now put the old registration papers to bed, forever, for, I now know, God has sent her, my puppy dog named "LUCY" back to me again, along with a new dog, that now carries two spirits. The old LUCY, and the New LUCY, both in one dog. I am now in LOVE with BOTH. And once again, HAPPY!

Fill the void and loss of your own pet or animal:

You all, can also be happy again, if you have ever lost a “special pet or animal” and the void of their loss has never yet been filled. Just take my heartfelt advice in this article, and find the old in the new.
