      @pattielynstarkey4530, ABSOLUTELY! How cold is a person who can’t permit his heart to be visibly sad when he is watching a loved one appear to suffer? I feel saddest for such a person. Jamie, your heart is often so open, and it is certainly loving. … While I knew I needed to let my Yorkshire Terrier, Max, move on to be fully Spirit, it was so difficult to release him, even harder because I needed to make the decision you did. But I praise our Veterinarian every day for the beautiful indigenous peoples’ ceremony, and for the peaceful, pain free transition he helped my beloved Maxie have. I am so sorry for your grief and suffering, Jamie. I have no doubt that Sherpa will welcome you to Spirit life when it is time. ❤

    Beneath the sky where mountains gleam,
    Lived Sherpa, Jamie’s loyal dream.
    A Malamute with heart so wide,
    A faithful friend, a constant guide.
    Through snowy paths and summer days,
    With Sherpa’s love, the world ablaze.
    His gentle eyes, his warming touch,
    In Jamie's heart, he meant so much.
    Now stars embrace him in their glow,
    A silent tear, a heartfelt woe.
    But memories, they softly weave,
    A bond so strong, it cannot leave.
    Run free, dear Sherpa, in the light,
    Your spirit soars beyond our sight.
    In Jamie's heart, you’ll always stay,
    Forever loved, in every way.

I'm glad we all got to be part of Sherpa's life and he got to be part of ours. We're all feeling this loss with you. Even the weather was mourning with you.

One day, when there is no longer time but only now, the two bits will meet again never more to part and with them the whole of each in loving embrace forevermore in God'a Divine Presence. The Mitzpah blessing. Rest in Peace lord Sherpa run wild, run free! You haven't put him down, Jamie, you've lifted him up, He's free and forever grateful! Thank you for being the loving companion and Dad Sherpa could ever have had. God bless and console you in your loss.💔😢

The veterinarian I took my dog to, had a framed sign that read: "Our pets give us the best days of our lives while they are with us, and one of the worst ones , when it is time to say goodbye. Keep the faith, my friend...you will see him again one day.

    Sherpa is now at Rainbow Bridge with strong limbs, a soft coat, a big sparkle in his eyes and he's running around with all the other pets having a grand time. One day he's going to hear his name called from afar. He'll pause and have a look around. Hearing his name again he recognizes the voice, takes a good look around and sees his best friend running towards him. He runs like he never had before. His tongue hangs out as he jumps into the arms of the friend he's been missing. Jamie and Sherpa are once again together and this time it's forever ❤

    I lost a service dog to a very horrific accident. I did not get to say goodby but came home to a broken friend that I had to burry her with her favorite pillow. Her collar still hangs by the garden shed. It has not even been a year and I must say I feel your pain. Real men cry and I cried as I watched your dog go on to the otherside. I pray I can see my Milk Dud again when I cross over to the otherside of life. As Pattie Lyn said, you maned up. That's real love to take the animal out of pain. Love that my man. I only had my Milk Dud for almost 5 years.

Telling him how grateful we are that he chose us to love, and that we’d see him at the rainbow bridge. He passed at home, comforted. A few months later, a little boy was available for adoption. We had a loving home. Sherman would have wanted us to, so we did. I still miss Sherman, and I still cry, but I think he’s checking in with us, as I hear his nails on the floor sometimes. Crying now lol.

      I think those who have or have had that type of relationship with a dog (or other animal) these relationships transcend human connections Jamie. I don’t mean they are more or less but they are on a different plane. To cultivate a connection that doesn’t use words, writing or other human communication is something special. It’s a symbiotic connection, they need food and other necessities, we need protection and other practicalities. But beyond that we both need family, love, a listening ear etc. Dogs are complex social animals, they can form loving and caring relationships and that is one of the reasons humans connect so strongly with them.

    I remember my day. My dog had seizures in the hallway and was peeing itself. I wrapped him in a blanket wnd rushed him to my car. Talked to him while hes laying on my passenger seat, breathing heavily. I remember the vet diagnosing organ failure. I remember the question. I remember laying nose to nose next to him while life disappeared from his eyes. I remember telling him we will meet again, somewhere, someday, at the end of the world.
    It was way over a decade ago. It will never stop burning.

And I dread this day with my girl because I don't know what happens after. He's such a good boy and had such an amazing adventure because of you and there aren't many out there who would do what you did for him EVEN WHEN HE COULD WALK! He will always be there for you. No matter what. And so are we! I love you, Sherpy. Lick that pretty Bridge!

      Thank you for sharing Sherpa with us for so long. You videos brought back many memories of our own Husky, Shadow, who we lost 21 years ago. She’s still part of our lives as long as we remember her, talk about her, and, yes, still blame her when things go missing. 🙂
      Your videos showed how much you loved Sherpa. She couldn’t have had a better dad. Your last act of love shows that.
      You’ll always feel the loss, but that will be more than offset by the fond memories you have. We shed tears for Sherpa, and yes, Shadow.

    When my Husky passed, I thought "I'll give it 6 months" then consider another dog. 2 weeks later I had another Husky - he didn't replace my boy, he is a whole different dog and I love him.
    my point, is Sherpa was the pivot your life turned around, rather than feel utterly lost for an extended period you might want to consider a new friend, it isn't a betrayal of Sherpa, it's just an acknowledgement that a dog is a massive part of your life.
    Either way, in about a week you'll have a better perspective on the life you gave Sherpa.

I hope Jamie will soon get another pup to keep him company. That would surely be another blessed dog just like sweet Sherpa was.

      If you had allowed them to do all the operations on him, he would of spent the last weeks of his life in a real bad way and away from you often. One of mine had an aggressive form of cancer, we went ahead and did the removal operation in hopes to allow her to have a few good years still, ended up, she then spent a week, her head stuffed into that collar, stuck in a small area of the house instead of her full range access that she spent her life knowing only for the cancer to pop up along the suture site and throughout her belly in the form of many tumors and she was in more pain than she was originally. It was fully heart breaking to see her like that even though, she tried to respond and even wagged tail when snuggled, her eyes were just blank and sad with pain. I personally regret putting her through the surgery and the down time her last weeks of life should of just being with us wherever she wished to lay down and receiving lots of love instead of "in the corner with a cone on her head". Hardest decision to make, bless you.

      @@JamesAllmond We had Samoyeds and Huskies, too. My blue eyed Maximillian had coloring like Sherpa. He grew up with my son, who was devastated when Maxie's back legs gave out when he was 12. My son now has a beautiful white husky who is getting old......

    Late to this video. So sorry for your loss. Hardest thing for a dog is being incapable of being a protector and companion to their humman. You decision was a kindness in many many ways. You showing companionship to the end was the best way to close this chapter. God's speed through your grief.

    Hey, Jamie, I am really, really sorry for your loss. I'm not exaggerating when I say I've never met a dog who had a better life than Sherpa's. He had the best foods, the best house, the best backyard, the best fitness routine, the best adventures and, above all else, he had the bestest friends a dog could have, both human and canine. I don't know what else to say, but I want you to know there are also tens of thousands of people mourning Sherpa right now. He was awesome dog and YOU are an awesome human being. Thank you very much for the trip! Much love.

      Yes, Jamie was one in a million pet parent. He took him on so many adventures that humans also don't get to do. Sherpa lived 10 lives in one. Rest in peace Sherpa ❤ we'll miss you 😢

    I wanted to add this beautiful quote by Robert Louis Stevenson :
    "You think dogs will not be in heaven?
    I tell you, they will be there long before any of us."
    Sherpa Forever ❤❤❤😭😭

    For a man to cry, to show "weakness" is a strength, especially with loss. There is no shame in it.
    You gave Sherpa the best life he could have had, did whatever you could to do when he was poorly.
    I will likely find myself randomly remembering a Dog and his Dad every so often, he will be remembered.
    Rest in peace Sherpa, you will be missed by so very many across the world.

    thanks for sharing your process. I'm going through the loss of my sweet dog after 13y. I still cry about losing her, everything reminds me of her and its all good memories.
    It's great you show men have feelings too and being sad and crying is a healthy process for grieving. You did the best for Sherpa and he will be by your side forever. big HUG

    Our Pyrenees/cattle dog mix is in her last days with cancer currently and it’s almost time for us to say goodbye too. It’s never easy, but letting them go and not suffer is a mercy. We don’t deserve them, best of luck to you and my condolences.
