There are things you can stop doing right now to achieve happiness. First of all: stop blaming. Taking responsibility when things go wrong instead of blaming others isn't masochistic, it's empowering. Secondly, stop impressing. Genuine relationships make you happier, and you'll only form genuine relationships when you stop trying to impress. Another is: stop waiting for your turn to speak. Listen to what people have to say. They'll love you for it--and you'll love how that makes you feel.

Dogs never really say Goodbye.
They just run ahead, waiting
for the day your footsteps
will join theirs again ..

This article addresses some real concerns with the pet cremation business, and is the main reason we opened our business in 2013. Pets in our care are not frozen, not bagged and we specialize in private cremation, meaning there are no other pets in the cremation unit with your pet. In Indiana, pet cremation is not regulated. An Individual cremation is not a private cremation- your pet is in the cremation unit with other pets, supposedly seperated by space. However, you will not just be getting your pet's remains returned to you because the heat in the cremation unit creates a wind force that comingles the animals during the cremation process. THIS is why you need to ask for additional information about your pet's cremation.

We have several vet clinics we partner with, who genuinely care about pets' aftercare- Above and Beyond Animal Care in Avon, The Integrative Veterinary Clinic in Westfield, and The Indy Animal Surgery Center in Zionsville. We encourage you to support these veterinary practices, because if they care this much about your pet's aftercare treatment when they pass, imagine how much they will care for them when they're still here.

As their pet parent, the choice on who provides your pet's aftercare is ultimately yours. Make sure you ask questions of your veterinarian or the provider you choose.

What does "We’ll take care of this for you" really mean?

Oh, so true! Fun fact: according to city ordinances in Boulder, Colorado, you are not a pet “owner” but rather a pet “guardian.”

Be like a crow!!

Nature is filled with messengers, and few are as fascinating as the crow. A bird of mystery, intelligence, and adaptability, the crow teaches us the importance of curiosity and play. It reminds us that joy is found in the simplest moments—collecting trinkets, savoring a meal, and expressing excitement unapologetically.

In many spiritual traditions, crows are symbols of transformation and higher knowledge. They teach us to see beyond the surface, to appreciate the magic in the mundane, and to trust our own wisdom. Like the crow, we are here to learn, explore, and leave our mark on the world.

What simple joy do you celebrate each day? Let’s take a lesson from the crows and embrace life fully. 🖤✨

"For what it's worth: It's never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you're proud of, and if you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start over." - F. Scott Fitzgerald

What are you proud of in your life?

If one of your pet's is at the end of his/her life, allow the other to be present at the end. This helps in their grieving process.

Do you wonder if you may worry too much? Excessive or unmanaged anxiety can become unhealthy if it takes the form of an anxiety disorder. If you feel like you are losing control: First, look inside and pinpoint the real cause of the anxiety. Then, decide what action, if any, should be taken. You may discover no action can be taken. If one can, come up with a plan that tackles the part of the problem that is under your control. Once you have done all you can, either take action or just let it go.

Dogs come into our lives to teach us about love.
They depart to teach us about loss.
A new dog never replaces an old dog, it merely expands the heart...
