A topic that we all really don't want to have is that of loss of our faithful companions & pet's. It is however something that we all know is inevitable at a point in time. Although this certainly doesn't make it any easier.

I have over the years of being a veterinary physio, supported many of my clients through this journey. For some its a prolonged worry about loss with chronic ailments & advancing year's. For some it's a sudden loss & shock that can be traumatic or even less expected. Even rehoming a pet or their disappearance are counted in the experience of loss.

I hope I have been compassionate, supportive & fair in my guiding of all the guardians during these times. It's definitely something that needs to be spoken about.

That is death, loss, dying, passing over & all the variations & situations that could arise. The more we normalise chatting, talking, preparing or even planning, then the understanding & coping of this life to death event is in some way a little less fearful.

It certainly won't take the hurt, pain, grief & loss away. But it may make it a bit easier.

A big area not always discussed is that of pet cremation. It can be easier to allow your veterinary practice to arrange this once the time has come.

A new local business has been established that is dedicated to the compassionate pet cremation services. Cherished Companion is based in Glossop and for those local, can provide assistance in arranging at home euthanasia, or collection from home or the vet.

They have a number of beautiful casks, urns and baskets for your beloved pet's ashes to return home as well as special keepsakes.

If any local veterinary centres or persons need any support guidance or discussions around pet loss, please do get in touch.

I also specialise in Pet Bereavement Therapy if you need a little extra healing of your heart. I hold sessions at Karuna Vibes and combine this along with other Therapy sessions.

I hope this post can help in many ways 🙏

Just keep our loved and lost tucked in our hearts ❤️ and let them sparkle ✨️ the love in our eyes, the compassion in our voices and smiles on our faces for when we can begin to remember them again without the pain and tears.
Love to all who need it 🙏💜🌟✨️🌟

Isobel wanted to introduce herself and give you a background into her life and interests!! 🤗
"I have always loved animals since being a child. We had a few guinea pigs and hamsters as pets but my parents wouldn’t allow anything bigger. As soon as I got my first job, I got my first horse Dante a retired trekking centre and riding school pony, I then had 2 more horses- Oliver and Diktatorship (Dikkie). I mainly did local showjumping/riding club shows/dressage with Oliver and Dikkie and also some BE eventing with Dikkie. Unfortunately I have lost both of them.
When I moved out of my parents house I got my first dog- a crazy hyper staffy called Wilson who lived til he was 13 and then a staffy x lab called Marley who I lost just over a year ago age 14. Marley was a real softy who just loved hiking in the peaks. Hopefully a new doggy will be joining me this year.
My other long time hobby was running I have completed a few 10ks, half marathons and one marathon. I am planing to run at least 1 half marathon again this year.
Lastly my life is very busy looking after my 2yr old boy. He is very active, loves being outside (like me) and is spending as much time as we can visiting farms and meeting lots of animals".

Looking forward to seeing you all at Karuna Vibes 🤗✨️💜🤗 call on 07788 986 029 to book your physio in!! Located SK6 8HY. Great for all you horse riders, equestrians, sports injuries and general physio issues 👍

Back from an amazing ACPAT seminar this weekend. Saturday had 7 guest speakers sharing canine related topics followed by the charity dinner and a police dog handler talking about her work with her dog, Akin.
Sunday had 6 equine speakers with some great information too. Lots of fantastic businesses there too showcase their products along with the charity for Retired Service Animals.
The venue was brilliant, beautiful grounds and lovely food and snacks.
Now too review all the information and hopefully help some more Animals 🤗🥰💜🙏

Please share....sadly a foster mare is needed for this foal in Cornwall UK 💔

*UPDATE*

Ella is now 6 weeks old and going from strength to strength. She is fully bucket trained as our various attempts to get her onto foster mother(s) were sadly unsuccessful. She now has a lovely elderly pony as a companion and is happy having daily turnout, learning how to gallop about, munch grass, and interact with her new friend.

Thank you everyone for your continued support. X

Unfortunately breeding doesn’t always come with happy outcomes 💔

This evening we find ourselves deep in grief, with a beautiful strong filly foal, who is lost without a mother to nurture her.

We are sending out a plea to all of our friends and followers to HELP US FIND A FOSTER MARE ASAP.

If you have a mare yourself, know of a mare with a friend that is suitable, or can even SHARE THIS POST to help it be seen by more people we would be very grateful.

Please message us here on the stud page, alternatively message Kari Christopher directly if you can help.

Thank you for your compassion and support during this difficult time. Let’s share and find this little beauty a new mummy!

FOSTER MARE NEEDED ASAP.
CORNWALL (UK)
