Thank you so much, Jamie. I was a bit apprehensive about this video being flagged up with you, but Sherpa was an important part of so many people’s lives. It’s heartbreaking, but carry on, mate. You have an engaging character and you’re our link to Sherpa. Nigel and Molly
Wise words delivered in a very kind and thought provoking way. I think you Sir, have brought some comfort to Jamie and others. It does for me. Thank you.
Sending ❤️ 🕯🕊 🪶 to you Jamie. I know how very devastating it is, but I know Sherpa is around you surrounding you with his love & comforting you in your grief. He is now comfortable, free of pain & disabilities, fully restored to his unique special Sherpie being, playing over the 🌈 bridge, & will be waiting for you when it's your turn with a hug, kiss & high 5 bump. I know you have felt him & smelled him & caught him out of the corner of your eye, & hope that continues to know he's there. Hard to not have him in the physical, but be totally at peace knowing you did absolutely all that you could & he knows & appreciates that forever. I feel the devastation as well, felt it was coming & just said prayers every time I checked that I wasn't going to see the end, & was hoping his specialist vet would have the answers, but with the tumors you know even if younger, would only buy some time & not comfortable quality time. Was the unselfish right thing. May you continue to sense him & see him also in different little ways that you know for sure it's him & ease your pain 💔 🌿 😢 🤍 Brenda H. Johnson City, NY, USA 🇺🇸 😘
@@vickydibba4771 He really was. I just watched the video of him and Nook. It’s heartbreaking. He’d already left. He was just hanging around to say goodbye.
Yes it’s absolutely heartbreaking !But maybe His special Lordship Sherpa was enjoying the company and his super Sausage at the end of the video ! Happy Memories……🌈💔❤️🇬🇧
Sherpa touched many people. In a crazy world Sherpa was a lovely relief from all the awful things in life. Sherpa & Jamie are loved by a lot of people.
Me too...I started crying as soon as I saw the title of the youtube he posted about letting Sherpa go. I think we felt as if Sherpa belonged to us a little bit too. I hope Jaime decides one day, when he's ready, to rescue a dog from a shelter. I've rescued a couple of dogs that were scheduled to be euthanized...they're the loveliest and in some way most appreciative dogs that just want someone to love them....a good remedy to help heal a broken heart.
If you don't follow Key, you should. His owner, Jodie, posted on one of her channels about Jamie and Sherpa. They are not sure how Key will take it when Jamie comes for a visit without Sherpa. Sherpa was in Key's life ever since Key was a baby. 10 years Sherpa was his best friend.
totally agree, Jamie is our main man. without Jamie we would not have had the opportunity to love them both so much for all these years. Thank you so much for honouring them both ❤
Grieving is the sign that we have loved, the price we pay. You were the luckiest man in the world Jamie to have had our Sherps to love and to be loved back. God bless lovely man. We are all here for you. Teresa Xx
Jamie, I hope you see this video! We ALL LOVED SHERPA!! RIGHT NOW I'M VERY WORRIED ABOUT YOU!! YOU DID EVERYTHING IN YOUR POWER TO KEEP SHERPA GOING & YOU KNOW THAT! We're ALL MOURNING SHERPA! Please keep posting, Jamie when you feel up to it!! I've been watching old videos of Sherpa, and you Jamie!! They make me smile,but then cry knowing you're alone now!! Sending my LOVE and SINCERE CONDOLENCES TO YOU AND SHERPA!!💞🐾🐕🦺🌈💔🕊
@@ronstihlman825 you can think what you want. It’s a free country/world. If you can’t distinguish empathy from avarice, then, perhaps my next video will be about sad little attention seekers. Thanks for watching. Peace and love.
Except saying “before he has a mental breakdown”. Jamie won’t necessarily have one of those. He’s grieving but not having a mental breakdown. After we lose a pet, it feels empty 😅feels like we have something to do but we don’t. It sounds quieter. We all grieve l in our own ways.
Sherpa was quite the dog! He was getting recognized whenever they went out in public. I know that Jamie was getting packages, letters, and emails from all over the world. However, I don't know if Jamie actually comprehended how much of an impact that he and Sherpa actually had in this world. Sherpa was a special being in this universe, and Jamie is more special than he knows. He gave all those years placing Sherpa's interests above all. He bought vehicles with Sherpa in mind. He bought a house with a large garden, so Sherpa had a place to patrol. He spent all those years taking care of Sherpa. Now, we, Sherpa's fans, will wait anxiously to see if Jamie will continue on UA-cam, either alone or perhaps he gets another dog and gives that dog a wonderful life just like the wonderful life that he gave to Sherpa. The only thing that I know to be true, is that I and I'm sure many others like me will be here and support Jamie if he decides to continue on UA-cam, either alone with "The Adventures of Jamie" or with another dog to carry-on Sherpa's legacy and memory. Whatever decision Jamie makes, I will be here to support him as a small way to say "thank you" for all the joyful memories that he and Sherpa gave to me and many of you as well. The memory, legacy, and impact that Sherpa had will live on in all of us who were touched by Jamie and Sherpa. Rest easy in heaven, my furry friend. Your place in heaven is well-deserved.
Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die. by Mary Elizabeth Frye Thank you for your wonderful tribute to Sherpa. Your beautiful words have struck a deep chord. As someone wrote earlier the algorithm was algorithming. I've been a long term follower of Jamie and Sherpa from my little corner of the world here in Kingston, Jamaica. Like you, like many many others, we see our beloveds in this one man and his dog. We grieve for him, and with him. I have 12 precious woofs and each day I consider myself blessed, that the impending grief has been pushed back yet another day, another month, for another time. But indeed, it is inevitable that it will come. And our own time will come. Another line from a poem by Swinburne comes to mind..."I shall remember while the light lives yet, and in the night-time I shall not forget."
I'm still crying about Sherpa. And being surprised by all the UA-cam channels I've never encountered before that are suddenly in my feed, because they're publishing tributes to Sherpa. @primalengland, thank you. Subscribed. I hope you have many years left with your Molly, and when she goes may she be cradled in your arms and your love, the way Jamie's Sherpa was.
Thank you for talking about Sherpa and Jamie....it's so nice to see the wide impact those two have had worldwide. Sherpa will be missed but I hope Jamie keeps us in his life. And thank you for your wisdom...so inspiring.
I feel just like you. We could all see Sherpa ageing, but it did actually make me shed a tear when Jamie’s first post came out. The ‘I’m sorry, It’s time to say goodbye. I actually did more than shed a tear, because I recognised me in Jamie, and Molly in Sherpa. I hope he carries on posting. I, for one, will encourage him to.
@@primalengland Hi, what a lovely tribute you paid to Sherpa and Jamie. Jamie recently confirmed he will continue to post old as well as new videos. I think Jamie is one of those people born to be a dog Dad or dog Mum. In time, he might be ready to open his heart to a new canine companion. Heaven knows, there are so many who deserve a loving home.
@primalengland I enjoyed your video, and your Molly is beautiful. We’ve all become so attached to Jamie and Sherpa over the years, and our hearts are broken for Jamie. Your words were very encouraging, and we all should live everyday to the fullest! Enjoy the little things, the quiet moments marveling at sunsets and clouds in the sky! We live in a beautiful world! ❤️
At 69 I’m not afraid of dying like when I was younger. I’m actually looking forward to seeing all the dogs I’ve had who have passed on. Most of all, I look forward to seeing my best friend who passed this last January at the age of 70. I miss him so much.
Jamie has just released a video stating that he will continue posting. He says he has some old videos that he still has to post. I can relate how he currently feels, I've lost a number of dogs and other animals. They bassicaly took part of my heart with them. Jamie and Sherpa brought me back from a very dark place. That's something I can never truly express my thanks for. Sherpa touched so many around the world ❤
I noticed that, and it’s something Molly has always done, and something I joke about. She hates being inside and just loves to sit and watch the world go by. Most dogs are gentle souls, even the reactive ones. They aren’t evil, they are blameless, confused by abusive actions of us ‘superior’ beings.
I think Sherpa did that because he knew his time was coming up and soon. Our dog did that when he was about to pass. He wanted to be outside, close to the house, but wanted to be outside.
@@megadezziescat1124 On one of the last videos he stayed under the hedge when it was raining. It was so sad. You could see he was struggling. I’d hate anyone to criticise Jamie. He even went through turmoil at the end, when he was telling himself to take Sherpa home. So sad.
I'm so sorry for you loss😪😪😪, I wish you much much strength for the next time🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 I know how it is, I had let my soul cat go in October 2022, he was very sick... 😭😭😭😭😭😭 But I talk to him almost every day, which helps me a little.
Sorry for the loss of your pussycats I understand it’s very, very difficult. I’ve lost so many over the years and it’s never any easier but their presence on this earth and in one’s life is so worthwhile. Take care❤
You're right, Sherpa made the most of every day! We can learn sooo much from Dogs!! Thank❤You for this message to Jamie & beloved big teddybear 🧸Sherpa 🧸. Blessings from Ottawa to your little dog & you for many more happy years together. 🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦
As the song by Alan Jackson says.... "The older I get, the more I think You only get a minute, better live while you're in it, because it's gone in a blink" 😊
Everybody loves Jamie and Sherpa. Sherpa had a long, full life for a big dog, but it tears your heart out when you lose a beloved pet. We all want our animals to live forever. Much love sent to Jamie.
UA-cam keeps recommending old Sherpa videos and every time that happens it's an emotional wrench. I wasn't aware that I'd become so attached. Probably as a dog owner all my life I can relate on a very personal level. I hope that Jamie takes on another dog and continues the journey, because at the end of the day the only cure for losing a companion animal is to find a new one. Grief is a perfectly normal reaction that never completely goes away, but it's important not to let it devolve into self pity.
Very, very wise words. I, too, hope Jamie gets another companion. No doubt UA-cam will have its criticisms. But then, who ever listened to the words of fools
Theodore Dalrymple wrote an essay when his dog died, and he said that to adopt a dog is to knowingly sign up for heartbreak. The lifespan of a dog compared to a human makes it inevitable that we'll outlast them. But though we know it, dogs don't. They live every day with us, never knowing that there's going to be a last parting. They don't have any dread for the future, it's just a continual present for them. We can't escape the burden of our knowledge, but we can take comfort by accompanying our animals through their perpetually sunny present, living with them as if it's never going to end, they way they do.
I've never thought about it like that. I love that perspective. I never wanted a dog of my own so when I had the chance I volunteered to look after other people's while their owners were on holiday or in hospital. Then my Mum died and I took her dog Coco last December. She has changed my life for the better but I'm dreading the day she passes. She's already lived past expectations at 15. I worry all the time but now... I will think of it from her perspective. She can't see the end coming. She's just happy :)
Very true. It has been three years since my samoyed passed away. It has been both the best and worst days of my life since I got him from the shelter and lost him. I haven't gotten another dog after he died, because I don't think I can deal with that loss again.
I think the people who posted tributes are just lucky to have a channel to do so. I’m sure everyone would if they could. Sherpa touched a lot of people’s lives.
I don't know how long I have been watching Sherpa. But, it feels like I lost one of my fur babies. He was an amazing doggo. He will definitely be missed.
I have been watching Sherpa for a couple of years now. Since the first of the year I noticed a slow decline in Sherpa and could see what was coming as I have been there many times with my own friends. It saddened me for Jamie as he tried his best to make things better for Sherpa. His heart will be heavy for some time to come, but he made that decision despite how difficult it was for his love of Sherpa and not let him suffer. You are in my prayers Jamie not just now but for a long time to come.
Our beloved dogs just don’t live long enough. The heartbreak of losing your best friend is almost unbearable. I’ve lost two dogs, cried for weeks both times. Now I can look at their photos and videos and be thankful for the time we had together and all the walks we shared, but still with a tear in my eye. Love to you and Molly 🐶
Indeed Agree with you and thank you for sharing your video. We will of course all watch Jamie. No matter how long we have them it will never be long enough. We have to honour our loss by carrying on with our life's because they showed us the way to love.
I’m the same I lost my girl 18 months ago and my boy 12 months ago and it’s only now I can watch their videos without crying all the time I can even laugh at some of the things they used to get up too.
Sherpa's loss brought back memories of my pets. I don't know what was harder, losing a pet due to sudden death or having to make the decision to tell your vet to put them down because there is no hope. Enjoy your time with Molly, she looks like a sweetheart.
Thank you for this tribute to Sherpa. He touched my heart and many thousands of others worldwide. And, I thank Jamie for sharing Sherpa and their travels with us. Thank you for your words of wisdom, too. Molly is a cute little girl and I pray for more years for the two of you. 💙❤🙏
The heartbreak we sign ourselves up for with our animals is so intense. It's a privilege to choose to enter into that contract and love so defiantly in the face of it.
Thank you for your tribute, we will miss him so much. 😢❤ I went through a loss of my best friend Mars, just over a year ago, so I understand Jamie’s distress; I’m just coming out of the darkness.
Words of wisdom! The downside to our wonderful, big brains is that we are aware of our own mortality. Sherpa just lived his life and enjoyed it. Sherpa and the wonderful dogs and cats I've had inspire me. I make plans, but I live in the moment. That's all I have... and it's more than enough.
Lovely tribute to Jamie and Sherpa. ❤In a way, it felt like Sherpa belonged to all of us. We went along on the trips, the neighbourhood visits for treats, playing in the dog park with Sherpa, and his best friend Key. We stressed about vet appointments, were grateful for hydrotherapy, and just stopped and observed our beautiful Sherpa resting in his garden. We were touched by Jamie’s constant, loving care, always doing what was best for Sherpa. There will be a long line at the Rainbow bridge, as each of us wait to say hello to our beloved Sherpa again. Until then, love and light to all. 🥰
What a beautiful poignant video Nigel. So well said and wonderful videography. I brought you with me last month as I completed the Jurassic Coastal path. I could hear your voice in my head saying ‘Slow down’ and ‘stop to enjoy the views’. And, I did 😁 Turning 360 degrees to make memories. ❤ Love and peace x
My heart breaks for Jamie. Sherpy was a beautiful soul. God bless Jamie my prayers & love I send to you. Grief is one of the most painful experiences & there's no time limit. I still grieve for all my fur baby Henry who passed 10months ago. All who follow you Jamie send love & spiritual hugs. ❤❤❤
This is the first video of yours I have seen. I cried for two days over the loss of Sherpa and for Jamie. I am grateful he let us know how he is. I'm old and not scared to die because I know I'm going to heaven and will get to meet Sherpa. I'm in the USA. You are right live everyday as if it's your last.
I have had six dogs in this life and I have been most fortunate to learn something from each of them. Dogs are wonderful teachers. I have become a better person through knowing each of them. I realized I only work to live and the concept of living to work is not the greatest way to experience life. One needs to live in the present. Being There. Rather than rushing from point A to point B, one needed to smell the flowers, feel the breeze and listen to the sounds. Life would have been much less enjoyable without growing up and old with my dogs. I feel for Jamie as our fur-faced companions often become so central and integrated into our lives, it is hard to comprehend life without them.
It's amazing that it can be the same for pets. I'll never forget the video of a wolf literally crying on the grave of his human grandmother that had passed. Sherpa will be missed around the world, but that's more LOVE than most politicians, leaders, and celebrities will ever have. There's no lots without love.
This is a wonderful post, thank you so much for it. My two dogs are both 14 and like you I am watching them. It is the the worst part of opening your heart to doggos. 💖
Sherpa was a very special dawgy. I will miss him and jaime's trips all over the place. My favorite moment was always seeing Sherpa stick his head up from the back of the van and in jaime's face. I will miss him very much
Greetings from the US! The algorithm was algorithming and brought me to you. I am not disappointed. 8 years ago, I lost my dog, "Colby." I didn't think I would ever recover from the devastation of it. Well, one day, I came across someone who was selling Shih Tzu puppies. The same breed as my precious Colby. I immediately knew that one of these puppies was meant to be mine. They were born on the very day that I lost Colby. Now I have "Champ," and he is living his best spoiled rotten life with his cat sisters. The universe definitely knew what it was doing in this case. Big hugs and lots of love to you and Molly❣️ Rest easy, Sherpa 💔
Thank you for this. It popped up because I’ve been following Sherpa’s Day recently. Such wise words. I need to save this to listen to from time to time ❤
I like the thought about each grief being a unique one. Millions have experienced loss, but no one has ever had YOUR grief, nor ever will. I have a right to go through MY grief, because this is MY special one. But then again, I'm not the only one with a grief, I can feel comforted by the fact that we all grieve, all creatures great and small
@@primalengland humbling, little messages from all over the world.I hope it’s some little comfort to Sherpas family. What a wonderful dog dear Sherpa was! I bet he’s STILL patrolling in his garden!
@@ASDTadpole I am now on my 10th dog since 1976, the best cure is to get another dog, you won't forget the one you lost but the new one will restore your life to you and get you off medication. I lost dogs in 2007/2008/2009/2010, a family member in 2011 and my last dog in 2018, 8 weeks after she died another rescue dog moved in, she restored normality and purpose, she is now 13 1/2 a Husky and am nearing that stage again
@@ASDTadpoleyour new dog will always have an angel at his side....After grieving give an opportunity to a new dog to live a happy life with you ,hugs ❤.
@@macraghnaill3553 Some people...and I'm one of them, just can't get another dog until I'm not hurting so much. Dogs pick up on a person's mood...I'd rather wait til I know I'm ready. I do hope Jamie rescues a dog when he's ready. So many abandoned, abused dogs just waiting to be loved and cared for.
_yes, in spite of all, some shape of beauty moves away the pall from our dark spirits. Such the sun, the moon, trees old and young, sprouting a shady boon for simple sheep; and such are daffodils with the green world they live in; and clear rills that for themselves a cooling covert make 'gainst the hot season; the mid forest brake, rich with a sprinkling of fair musk-rose blooms..._ Sherpa was one of many things of beauty in the rather dull life we had brought unto ourselves.
7:37 it is a cycle of life but the grief need to be felt deeply in your soul because it's the message to got about the debth of your love. I've been crying for my dog since November and every now and then the tears are unstippable like they are now for Sherpa's passing. I will never be as crushed for anyone else as I am now for my dogs. They healed my soul and brought me joy and peace like nothing else did. I look at other people with their dogs and live vicuriously through their happiness.
I can unequivocally say that I've never cried more daily tears for a dog that I've never met in person! Every day since we learned the devastating news, Sherpa and Jamie have been at the forefront of my mind! I feel blessed to have known him through all the lovely videos and found him through his best friend Key so many years ago! It's extremely excruciating to know that "Sherpa's coming over" will never be spoken again to Key, but I personally believe that their souls will all reunite!!! ...The thing that sticks with me the most of what you said in your video is to "Be like Sherpa!" For those just reading the comments, listen to the full video and you will understand! Much love to you forever sweet Sherpy! 🕊🐶😇❤️
Also got sent here by the algorithm Just one more way one silly old talking Husky and the man that loved him touched the lives of thousands around the globe. That's a rare and wonderful gift to share with the world. Thank you Nigel for sharing your thoughts.....RIP, Sherps! 💝🐩
I've watched Sherpa from the beginning and am absolutely heartbroken for Jamie. He and Sherpa had an incredible bond and had thirteen fantastic years together. I so agree with what you say. Make the most of every day.
@@primalengland I realize we all grieve differently, but imo it's important to remember it's about the animals. A lot of people to avoid repeating the agony of loss, don't get another pet while so many animals languish without homes. Not a lot of people have YT viewers chip in for a house. That's how much we loved that grand doggo. May your vibes spread across Earth. Subbing to your cool channel. Paz y luz ✨️🐾💙
In a space of 6 weeks in 2008, I lost my mum, a friend (on the operating table) and my 20 year old cat. I will never forget one of my work colleagues commenting that I seemed much more upset about the cat, what she failed to realise was that it was the culmination of those deaths and the associated things that went with it all. 2008 was a horrible, horrible year for me and my daughter. Death is, unfortunately, a part of life.
I lost my dad, my grandmother, and my beloved dog Mikhail all in the same week in 2007. I had friends and work colleagues say the same to me. Why are you more upset about the dog?
I didn't think I was going to cry while listening but here I am. You just popped up on my feed below jamie and now I'm subscribed. I feel for jamie, miss sherpa, and send a hug to you.
thank you very much for sharing this video , I miss Sherpa so much & I truly believe that our Heavenly Father has welcomed Sherpa into his eternal home where there's no sickness or sadness but instead everlasting happiness , I'm most grateful to Sherpa & Jamie for helping me to overcome the sadness in my heart from the loss of my best friends Champ & Cujo , I won't ever forget Sherpa & Jamie 🙏
Beautifully said. Thank you for this rumination. It was oddly consoling- this acceptance of the inevitability of grief. Sherpa’s death has been strangely devastating for me (my dog is 12) and I have been thinking of Jamie these past few days. Yes, we must accept. That’s the cycle.
I came here for the wonderful words about Sherpa and Jamie… and I will follow now because of your lovely wisdom and insight. How nice to discover a treasure out of a place of loss.
Thank you Nigel.....what a nice surprise. My heart skipped a beat when I saw the grass behind you. I thought you were in Sherpie's Garden and visiting Jamie! When it's time I see a new pup running around there. Would love Sarah to being Dexter over and let him go crazy in the open. XO
I'm not afraid of dying, I'm afraid of dying in pain. I hope to just slip away. I think we are blessed that can stop the hurt and strggles when our furbabies are sick. I have been present on three endings of cats and it's calm, seren and somber. The vets are angels in that situation. I can really relate to just sit and take your life in, be greatful for what you have, don't strive to acumulate 'stuff' - acumulate experiences! ❤❤❤
I have been watching both Sherpa and Sherpa's Day for just over 4 years. Like all others here, I am crushed by the loss of Sherpa. The loss is global. He was a wonderful boy. Jamie is a great dog owner and he is an exemplary dog dad. Thank you for honouring Jamie and Sherpa's memory
Thanks for your lovely comments regarding Sherpa and Jamie. I just lost my 13 1/2 year old Malamute who was named Maya. These lovely animals are a gift. Thank you again.
I agree ,Jamie is going to be lost without Sherpa as his life revolved around him, As the saying goes, Been there done that and got another dog [many times]
Nigel, this was a wonderful post, so well said. Sherpa was such a lovely, happy, friendly, beautiful character. I started watching him after our Theo died (he looked a lot like Sherpa) and it helped me enormously. It’s two years and I still miss Theo. We are so lucky to have had our beloved dogs. I hope Molly lasts a good while longer, but your words about grief and you know what’s coming at some point are very wise.
I have been watching Jamie and Sherpa for years. When Sherpa passed I cried for he and for Jamie. ❤❤ When I saw that your video was having to do with Sherpa I clicked on it. I don't know how I have missed your videos in the past but I am grateful that you did such a lovely tribute to Sherpa and Jamie. I'm now a new subscriber for you. Thank you sir. ❤❤
I have been through losing a dog many times in my life but I know they are waiting at the Rainbow Bridge. Sugar, my husky, I had to put to sleep 10 years ago, wasn't going to get another dog. But, I cannot live without a dog. Six month later I saw Majik (flatcoat/golden mix), almost 8 weeks old, she looks like a black golden, on a rescue site. I still miss all the dogs I have had but Majik is the best, sweetest dog I have ever had. Having her in my life has helped me get over Sugar. There is always a puppy who needs a loving home.
I would like to thank you for this. I really needed to hear your message. My mom passed away in 2022 from cancer and losing my beagle in 2013. I also have been following Shepra and Jamie for a few years. Like many others, I am heartbroken.
I was so sad when Sherpa died. I cried through the whole video. Jaime is so lucky he has so many videos of him. I think that people are more afraid of death when they are young. As you age you lose many friends, relatives and animals. And then you are not as afraid of death because they are waiting for you in Heaven. Your little dog is so cute. Enjoy every second with her. I lost my little dog almost 6 years ago. I still miss him so much.
I cried during and after Jamie’s video too about Sherpas passing. It made me remember my late angel babies and also key, his best friend. That made me tear up more and it was nighttime when I watched.
You are a very wise man. Thanks for this post. Sherpa has been part of my routine for years and I have been missing and grieving for him like so many others Sherpa touched around the world. So glad I took the time to walk with you across your incredible landscape, under your incredible sky scape, listen to your simple and peaceful thoughts on life and death and how incredible Sherpa was, all spoken in that incredible accent. I feel better now. Thank you, sir. I hope we can walk together again some time. Peace and love to you from Florida, USA.☮️❤️🇬🇧🇺🇸
Thankyou so much for this! I hope you and Molly are having a lovely weekend. Loved the video. Jamie and Sherpa 💙
Thank you so much, Jamie. I was a bit apprehensive about this video being flagged up with you, but Sherpa was an important part of so many people’s lives. It’s heartbreaking, but carry on, mate. You have an engaging character and you’re our link to Sherpa.

Wise words delivered in a very kind and thought provoking way. I think you Sir, have brought some comfort to Jamie and others. It does for me. Thank you.
Still remembering you in my prayers Jamie.
Still praying for you Jamie ❤
Sending ❤️ 🕯🕊 🪶 to you Jamie. I know how very devastating it is, but I know Sherpa is around you surrounding you with his love & comforting you in your grief. He is now comfortable, free of pain & disabilities, fully restored to his unique special Sherpie being, playing over the 🌈 bridge, & will be waiting for you when it's your turn with a hug, kiss & high 5 bump. I know you have felt him & smelled him & caught him out of the corner of your eye, & hope that continues to know he's there. Hard to not have him in the physical, but be totally at peace knowing you did absolutely all that you could & he knows & appreciates that forever. I feel the devastation as well, felt it was coming & just said prayers every time I checked that I wasn't going to see the end, & was hoping his specialist vet would have the answers, but with the tumors you know even if younger, would only buy some time & not comfortable quality time. Was the unselfish right thing. May you continue to sense him & see him also in different little ways that you know for sure it's him & ease your pain 💔 🌿 😢 🤍 Brenda H. Johnson City, NY, USA 🇺🇸 😘

@@vickydibba4771 He really was. I just watched the video of him and Nook. It’s heartbreaking. He’d already left. He was just hanging around to say goodbye.

What a beautiful tribute to Sherpa.❤ Rest in peace Sherpa.
I have been watching Sherpa for years, I am heartbroken! So good to see people pay tribute to Sherpa❤ He is a beautiful soul!
Me too...I started crying as soon as I saw the title of the youtube he posted about letting Sherpa go. I think we felt as if Sherpa belonged to us a little bit too. I hope Jaime decides one day, when he's ready, to rescue a dog from a shelter. I've rescued a couple of dogs that were scheduled to be euthanized...they're the loveliest and in some way most appreciative dogs that just want someone to love them....a good remedy to help heal a broken heart.
Same. Cried through the whole video. @@BronteBlu2
If you don't follow Key, you should. His owner, Jodie, posted on one of her channels about Jamie and Sherpa. They are not sure how Key will take it when Jamie comes for a visit without Sherpa. Sherpa was in Key's life ever since Key was a baby. 10 years Sherpa was his best friend.
I miss Sherpa so much. I fell in love with this beautiful boy the first time I saw him. See you on the rainbow Bridge buddy.
@@lorettacarroll6015when i thought about this i bawled out crying. Thinking of this again still draws tears. 😔
We have to help take care of Jamie now. It's what Sherpa would want us to do.
Yes we do. ❤we love you Jamie.
Yes.
totally agree, Jamie is our main man. without Jamie we would not have had the opportunity to love them both so much for all these years. Thank you so much for honouring them both ❤
Grieving is the sign that we have loved, the price we pay. You were the luckiest man in the world Jamie to have had our Sherps to love and to be loved back. God bless lovely man. We are all here for you. Teresa Xx
Agreed
I’m beyond devastated that Sherpa isn’t with us anymore my heart breaks for Jamie 😢😢😢😢
Yes me also!
Jamie, I hope you see this video! We ALL LOVED SHERPA!! RIGHT NOW I'M VERY WORRIED ABOUT YOU!! YOU DID EVERYTHING IN YOUR POWER TO KEEP SHERPA GOING & YOU KNOW THAT! We're ALL MOURNING SHERPA! Please keep posting, Jamie when you feel up to it!! I've been watching old videos of Sherpa, and you Jamie!! They make me smile,but then cry knowing you're alone now!! Sending my LOVE and SINCERE CONDOLENCES TO YOU AND SHERPA!!💞🐾🐕🦺🌈💔🕊
Thank you for honoring Sherpa and Jamie. Sherpa was truly loved all around the world and we thank Jamie for sharing him. Jamie we are all behind you
I get the feeling these guys are taking the opportunity to cash in on Sherpa's channel . Several guys are doing this.
@@ronstihlman825 you can think what you want. It’s a free country/world. If you can’t distinguish empathy from avarice, then, perhaps my next video will be about sad little attention seekers. Thanks for watching. Peace and love.
This man is spewing wisdom right here, We should listen to this, it's important.
Except saying “before he has a mental breakdown”. Jamie won’t necessarily have one of those. He’s grieving but not having a mental breakdown. After we lose a pet, it feels empty 😅feels like we have something to do but we don’t. It sounds quieter. We all grieve l in our own ways.
@@jessicajarsak7812 I mean he was quoting the video Jamie said himself; I don't believe this man is being malicious : o
@@ChaosTearKitsune correct
I love the line “What is grief but love persevering”… so sad to have lost Sherpa. A lovely tribute x
Sherpa was quite the dog! He was getting recognized whenever they went out in public. I know that Jamie was getting packages, letters, and emails from all over the world. However, I don't know if Jamie actually comprehended how much of an impact that he and Sherpa actually had in this world. Sherpa was a special being in this universe, and Jamie is more special than he knows. He gave all those years placing Sherpa's interests above all. He bought vehicles with Sherpa in mind. He bought a house with a large garden, so Sherpa had a place to patrol. He spent all those years taking care of Sherpa. Now, we, Sherpa's fans, will wait anxiously to see if Jamie will continue on UA-cam, either alone or perhaps he gets another dog and gives that dog a wonderful life just like the wonderful life that he gave to Sherpa.
The only thing that I know to be true, is that I and I'm sure many others like me will be here and support Jamie if he decides to continue on UA-cam, either alone with "The Adventures of Jamie" or with another dog to carry-on Sherpa's legacy and memory. Whatever decision Jamie makes, I will be here to support him as a small way to say "thank you" for all the joyful memories that he and Sherpa gave to me and many of you as well.
The memory, legacy, and impact that Sherpa had will live on in all of us who were touched by Jamie and Sherpa.
Rest easy in heaven, my furry friend. Your place in heaven is well-deserved.
why not use that time and money for helping homeless dogs, even ugly dog needs home, internet dogs dont need new toys so people can say internet
Amen
I don't know Jamie of course, but I think that it was Sherpa who made him into the kind man he is. Job well done, Sherpa. All will miss you.
@@jounikyy7715 great, so is that what you are going to do?
that is a good idea
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
by Mary Elizabeth Frye
Thank you for your wonderful tribute to Sherpa. Your beautiful words have struck a deep chord. As someone wrote earlier the algorithm was algorithming. I've been a long term follower of Jamie and Sherpa from my little corner of the world here in Kingston, Jamaica. Like you, like many many others, we see our beloveds in this one man and his dog. We grieve for him, and with him. I have 12 precious woofs and each day I consider myself blessed, that the impending grief has been pushed back yet another day, another month, for another time. But indeed, it is inevitable that it will come. And our own time will come. Another line from a poem by Swinburne comes to mind..."I shall remember while the light lives yet, and in the night-time I shall not forget."
💞🐾😌
I'm still crying about Sherpa. And being surprised by all the UA-cam channels I've never encountered before that are suddenly in my feed, because they're publishing tributes to Sherpa. @primalengland, thank you. Subscribed. I hope you have many years left with your Molly, and when she goes may she be cradled in your arms and your love, the way Jamie's Sherpa was.
Sherpa made many, many people happy! It was a joy to experience his life.
Thank you for talking about Sherpa and Jamie....it's so nice to see the wide impact those two have had worldwide. Sherpa will be missed but I hope Jamie keeps us in his life. And thank you for your wisdom...so inspiring.
I feel just like you. We could all see Sherpa ageing, but it did actually make me shed a tear when Jamie’s first post came out. The ‘I’m sorry, It’s time to say goodbye. I actually did more than shed a tear, because I recognised me in Jamie, and Molly in Sherpa.
I hope he carries on posting. I, for one, will encourage him to.
@@primalengland Hi, what a lovely tribute you paid to Sherpa and Jamie. Jamie recently confirmed he will continue to post old as well as new videos. I think Jamie is one of those people born to be a dog Dad or dog Mum. In time, he might be ready to open his heart to a new canine companion. Heaven knows, there are so many who deserve a loving home.
Jaime we love you as much as we loved Sherpa. Stay with us.
I agree with you. I would hate to loose Jamie too
@primalengland I enjoyed your video, and your Molly is beautiful. We’ve all become so attached to Jamie and Sherpa over the years, and our hearts are broken for Jamie. Your words were very encouraging, and we all should live everyday to the fullest! Enjoy the little things, the quiet moments marveling at sunsets and clouds in the sky! We live in a beautiful world! ❤️
At 69 I’m not afraid of dying like when I was younger. I’m actually looking forward to seeing all the dogs I’ve had who have passed on. Most of all, I look forward to seeing my best friend who passed this last January at the age of 70. I miss him so much.
hugs
My only hope is to die as happy as Sherpa. He loved Jamie with all he had in him. Sherpa will always be in our hearts. 😇
Jamie has just released a video stating that he will continue posting. He says he has some old videos that he still has to post. I can relate how he currently feels, I've lost a number of dogs and other animals. They bassicaly took part of my heart with them. Jamie and Sherpa brought me back from a very dark place. That's something I can never truly express my thanks for. Sherpa touched so many around the world ❤
Make new friends while cherishing the ones you made before
That was the one thing with Sherpa he would sit and look at the scenery and watch the world go by. Very unusual in a dog.
I noticed that, and it’s something Molly has always done, and something I joke about. She hates being inside and just loves to sit and watch the world go by. Most dogs are gentle souls, even the reactive ones. They aren’t evil, they are blameless, confused by abusive actions of us ‘superior’ beings.
I think Sherpa did that because he knew his time was coming up and soon. Our dog did that when he was about to pass. He wanted to be outside, close to the house, but wanted to be outside.
@@megadezziescat1124 On one of the last videos he stayed under the hedge when it was raining. It was so sad. You could see he was struggling. I’d hate anyone to criticise Jamie. He even went through turmoil at the end, when he was telling himself to take Sherpa home. So sad.
@@primalengland My heart still aches. 💔
@@megadezziescat1124 ❤️
This was lovely, slow and measured, I will follow you now even as I followed and will follow Sherpie and Jamie. Peace and love to you and yours.
Thank you so much. ❤️
I've been watching Sherpa for 4 years. Sherpa will be missed. I lost 2 orange male cats in June & I still cry every day. It's very hard.
So sorry for your loss. Hope you are doing well ❤
@@simpleheart9043I have 3 orangies oldest 10 youngest 1yr. Middle 6yrs. Love them so much.❤❤❤
I'm so sorry for you loss😪😪😪, I wish you much much strength for the next time🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I know how it is, I had let my soul cat go in October 2022, he was very sick... 😭😭😭😭😭😭 But I talk to him almost every day, which helps me a little.
Sorry for the loss of your pussycats I understand it’s very, very difficult. I’ve lost so many over the years and it’s never any easier but their presence on this earth and in one’s life is so worthwhile. Take care❤
@@exadoorrising1239 thank you 😊
You're right, Sherpa made the most of every day! We can learn sooo much from Dogs!! Thank❤You for this message to Jamie & beloved big teddybear 🧸Sherpa 🧸. Blessings from Ottawa to your little dog & you for many more happy years together. 🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦
As the song by Alan Jackson says....
"The older I get, the more I think
You only get a minute, better live while you're in it, because it's gone in a blink" 😊
Everybody loves Jamie and Sherpa. Sherpa had a long, full life for a big dog, but it tears your heart out when you lose a beloved pet. We all want our animals to live forever. Much love sent to Jamie.
Bless you for your caring and kindness in honoring Sherpa and Jamie.
Thank you.
UA-cam keeps recommending old Sherpa videos and every time that happens it's an emotional wrench. I wasn't aware that I'd become so attached. Probably as a dog owner all my life I can relate on a very personal level. I hope that Jamie takes on another dog and continues the journey, because at the end of the day the only cure for losing a companion animal is to find a new one. Grief is a perfectly normal reaction that never completely goes away, but it's important not to let it devolve into self pity.
Very, very wise words. I, too, hope Jamie gets another companion. No doubt UA-cam will have its criticisms. But then, who ever listened to the words of fools
Such a lovely tribute to a beautiful dog ❤️
Theodore Dalrymple wrote an essay when his dog died, and he said that to adopt a dog is to knowingly sign up for heartbreak. The lifespan of a dog compared to a human makes it inevitable that we'll outlast them. But though we know it, dogs don't. They live every day with us, never knowing that there's going to be a last parting. They don't have any dread for the future, it's just a continual present for them. We can't escape the burden of our knowledge, but we can take comfort by accompanying our animals through their perpetually sunny present, living with them as if it's never going to end, they way they do.
That's lovely ❤
I've never thought about it like that. I love that perspective.
I never wanted a dog of my own so when I had the chance I volunteered to look after other people's while their owners were on holiday or in hospital. Then my Mum died and I took her dog Coco last December. She has changed my life for the better but I'm dreading the day she passes. She's already lived past expectations at 15. I worry all the time but now... I will think of it from her perspective. She can't see the end coming. She's just happy :)
Very true. It has been three years since my samoyed passed away. It has been both the best and worst days of my life since I got him from the shelter and lost him.
I haven't gotten another dog after he died, because I don't think I can deal with that loss again.
Dogs truly know how to live in the "now" and live it to the fullest.
Just beautiful and very true thoughts.😢❤
Thank you for this beautiful tribute to Sherpa! Been part of the Sherpa viewing Pack for years now and it this has meant so much! 💜💜💜💜
Thank you. We will all miss him…..’HOOMAN!’ ❤️
A true story, thank you.
Without an end there is no beginning.
Sherpa is a dog to remember. And that is comfort
Seeing the outpouring of love from so many other channels is just so touching... RIP Sherpy~ and Bless y'all for makin' this lovely video
I think the people who posted tributes are just lucky to have a channel to do so. I’m sure everyone would if they could. Sherpa touched a lot of people’s lives.
I've shed many tears over the past few days. Sherpa was special and I thank Jamie for sharing him with us. He will be very missed.
I don't know how long I have been watching Sherpa. But, it feels like I lost one of my fur babies. He was an amazing doggo. He will definitely be missed.
No matter where we are in the world we are never goin to forget sherpa he will be in our minds for a long time and so will jamie
Beautiful ideas & comforting words. I cried until I re-examine my perspective. I thank you and Sherpa. Bless Jamie & your Molly.
Very wise words I’m still in shock over my dog after ten years rip Sherpa and to everyone who has lost their fur babies xx
I have been watching Sherpa for a couple of years now. Since the first of the year I noticed a slow decline in Sherpa and could see what was coming as I have been there many times with my own friends. It saddened me for Jamie as he tried his best to make things better for Sherpa. His heart will be heavy for some time to come, but he made that decision despite how difficult it was for his love of Sherpa and not let him suffer. You are in my prayers Jamie not just now but for a long time to come.
Watched sherpa for years and like you will continue to watch Jamie and hope he continues. Will miss sherpa so much.
Thanks for this discussion!
Our beloved dogs just don’t live long enough. The heartbreak of losing your best friend is almost unbearable. I’ve lost two dogs, cried for weeks both times. Now I can look at their photos and videos and be thankful for the time we had together and all the walks we shared, but still with a tear in my eye. Love to you and Molly 🐶
I agree, Clare. Why are dogs here so briefly? I’ve had my heart broken a few times, but I think losing Molly will be the most devastating.
Indeed Agree with you and thank you for sharing your video. We will of course all watch Jamie. No matter how long we have them it will never be long enough. We have to honour our loss by carrying on with our life's because they showed us the way to love.
@@brigitnunez6735 beautiful words. ❤️
I’m the same I lost my girl 18 months ago and my boy 12 months ago and it’s only now I can watch their videos without crying all the time I can even laugh at some of the things they used to get up too.
Sherpa's loss brought back memories of my pets. I don't know what was harder, losing a pet due to sudden death or having to make the decision to tell your vet to put them down because there is no hope. Enjoy your time with Molly, she looks like a sweetheart.
Thank you for this tribute to Sherpa. He touched my heart and many thousands of others worldwide. And, I thank Jamie for sharing Sherpa and their travels with us. Thank you for your words of wisdom, too. Molly is a cute little girl and I pray for more years for the two of you. 💙❤🙏
Thank you so much.
The heartbreak we sign ourselves up for with our animals is so intense. It's a privilege to choose to enter into that contract and love so defiantly in the face of it.
Beautiful and true ❤
Thank you for your tribute, we will miss him so much. 😢❤ I went through a loss of my best friend Mars, just over a year ago, so I understand Jamie’s distress; I’m just coming out of the darkness.
I cryed right along with Jamie and all the others that loved Sherpa.
Words of wisdom! The downside to our wonderful, big brains is that we are aware of our own mortality. Sherpa just lived his life and enjoyed it. Sherpa and the wonderful dogs and cats I've had inspire me. I make plans, but I live in the moment. That's all I have... and it's more than enough.
Very true. Molly is old and I worry about her, but I can take consolation in the knowledge that she hasn’t a clue. She’s just living in the now.
He was a rainbow and sunshine during these horrible times.
Lovley words of wisdom. Thank you, sir. Molly is adorable.
Thank you, and yes, Molly is fabulous. 😊
Lovely tribute to Jamie and Sherpa. ❤In a way, it felt like Sherpa belonged to all of us. We went along on the trips, the neighbourhood visits for treats, playing in the dog park with Sherpa, and his best friend Key. We stressed about vet appointments, were grateful for hydrotherapy, and just stopped and observed our beautiful Sherpa resting in his garden. We were touched by Jamie’s constant, loving care, always doing what was best for Sherpa. There will be a long line at the Rainbow bridge, as each of us wait to say hello to our beloved Sherpa again. Until then, love and light to all. 🥰
What a beautiful poignant video Nigel. So well said and wonderful videography. I brought you with me last month as I completed the Jurassic Coastal path. I could hear your voice in my head saying ‘Slow down’ and ‘stop to enjoy the views’. And, I did 😁 Turning 360 degrees to make memories. ❤ Love and peace x
Having recently lost my dear English bulldog, Clyde....I understand. Thank you for supporting him. The love of a dog is immeasurable. #callsigntwitch
My heart breaks for Jamie. Sherpy was a beautiful soul. God bless Jamie my prayers & love I send to you. Grief is one of the most painful experiences & there's no time limit. I still grieve for all my fur baby Henry who passed 10months ago. All who follow you Jamie send love & spiritual hugs. ❤❤❤
We choose these potential tragedies in our lives because we can’t resist the love and companionship a dog brings.
The lord only promissed us today. But when we need him he carries us all. Foot prints in the sand.
So sorry for the loss of Mighty Sherpa.
This is the first video of yours I have seen. I cried for two days over the loss of Sherpa and for Jamie. I am grateful he let us know how he is. I'm old and not scared to die because I know I'm going to heaven and will get to meet Sherpa. I'm in the USA. You are right live everyday as if it's your last.
So beautiful, thank you. Peace and Love to you and Molly.😘🐾❤️
Thank you, and peace and love to you. ❤️
I have had six dogs in this life and I have been most fortunate to learn something from each of them. Dogs are wonderful teachers. I have become a better person through knowing each of them. I realized I only work to live and the concept of living to work is not the greatest way to experience life. One needs to live in the present. Being There. Rather than rushing from point A to point B, one needed to smell the flowers, feel the breeze and listen to the sounds. Life would have been much less enjoyable without growing up and old with my dogs. I feel for Jamie as our fur-faced companions often become so central and integrated into our lives, it is hard to comprehend life without them.
❤❤ I am so sorry to hear of dear Sherpas passing. I loved him. He was a sweet soul. My deepest condolences to Jamie. Lord bless Jamie and Sherpa.😢
It's amazing that it can be the same for pets. I'll never forget the video of a wolf literally crying on the grave of his human grandmother that had passed. Sherpa will be missed around the world, but that's more LOVE than most politicians, leaders, and celebrities will ever have. There's no lots without love.
This is a wonderful post, thank you so much for it.
My two dogs are both 14 and like you I am watching them. It is the the worst part of opening your heart to doggos.
💖
They break our hearts, but we would never regret having them in our lives.
Sherpa got me through lockdown.
He made me smile in dark times
💔For Sherpa and Jamie's family.
Please look after each other ❤️🙏
Sherpa was a very special dawgy. I will miss him and jaime's trips all over the place. My favorite moment was always seeing Sherpa stick his head up from the back of the van and in jaime's face. I will miss him very much
Greetings from the US! The algorithm was algorithming and brought me to you. I am not disappointed.
8 years ago, I lost my dog, "Colby." I didn't think I would ever recover from the devastation of it.
Well, one day, I came across someone who was selling Shih Tzu puppies. The same breed as my precious Colby. I immediately knew that one of these puppies was meant to be mine. They were born on the very day that I lost Colby. Now I have "Champ," and he is living his best spoiled rotten life with his cat sisters. The universe definitely knew what it was doing in this case.
Big hugs and lots of love to you and Molly❣️
Rest easy, Sherpa 💔
Thank you for this. It popped up because I’ve been following Sherpa’s Day recently. Such wise words. I need to save this to listen to from time to time ❤
I still watch Jamie’s videos. I can’t decide whether or not he will get another companion. I think, perhaps he will.
I like the thought about each grief being a unique one. Millions have experienced loss, but no one has ever had YOUR grief, nor ever will.
I have a right to go through MY grief, because this is MY special one.
But then again, I'm not the only one with a grief, I can feel comforted by the fact that we all grieve, all creatures great and small
The tributes have been so genuine and kind.
People have put a lot of care into them.

_yes, in spite of all, some shape of beauty moves away the pall from our dark spirits. Such the sun, the moon, trees old and young, sprouting a shady boon for simple sheep; and such are daffodils with the green world they live in; and clear rills that for themselves a cooling covert make 'gainst the hot season; the mid forest brake, rich with a sprinkling of fair musk-rose blooms..._
Sherpa was one of many things of beauty in the rather dull life we had brought unto ourselves.
Wonderful words. Yes, life is dull with just sprinkling of bright jewels.
When a dog aeems more human than animal, it makes life tougher, living without him.
That is so true.
7:37 it is a cycle of life but the grief need to be felt deeply in your soul because it's the message to got about the debth of your love. I've been crying for my dog since November and every now and then the tears are unstippable like they are now for Sherpa's passing. I will never be as crushed for anyone else as I am now for my dogs. They healed my soul and brought me joy and peace like nothing else did. I look at other people with their dogs and live vicuriously through their happiness.
I can unequivocally say that I've never cried more daily tears for a dog that I've never met in person! Every day since we learned the devastating news, Sherpa and Jamie have been at the forefront of my mind! I feel blessed to have known him through all the lovely videos and found him through his best friend Key so many years ago! It's extremely excruciating to know that "Sherpa's coming over" will never be spoken again to Key, but I personally believe that their souls will all reunite!!! ...The thing that sticks with me the most of what you said in your video is to "Be like Sherpa!" For those just reading the comments, listen to the full video and you will understand! Much love to you forever sweet Sherpy! 🕊🐶😇❤️

Thank you Nigel for sharing your thoughts.....RIP, Sherps! 💝🐩
Thank you. I think that seeing the love between people and animals has a special resonance, and calms the whole universe down.
I've watched Sherpa from the beginning and am absolutely heartbroken for Jamie. He and Sherpa had an incredible bond and had thirteen fantastic years together. I so agree with what you say. Make the most of every day.
Sherpa and Jamie are beloved. I hope he will rescue another dog.
I think he will, but I get the impression it may be a while. It’s very sad.
@@primalengland
I realize we all grieve differently, but imo it's important to remember it's about the animals.
A lot of people to avoid repeating the agony of loss, don't get another pet while so many animals languish without homes.
Not a lot of people have YT viewers chip in for a house. That's how much we loved that grand doggo.
May your vibes spread across Earth. Subbing to your cool channel.
Paz y luz ✨️🐾💙
In a space of 6 weeks in 2008, I lost my mum, a friend (on the operating table) and my 20 year old cat. I will never forget one of my work colleagues commenting that I seemed much more upset about the cat, what she failed to realise was that it was the culmination of those deaths and the associated things that went with it all. 2008 was a horrible, horrible year for me and my daughter. Death is, unfortunately, a part of life.
I'm sorry your colleage ouldn't see that you really needed a giant hug just then.
I lost my dad, my grandmother, and my beloved dog Mikhail all in the same week in 2007. I had friends and work colleagues say the same to me. Why are you more upset about the dog?
Sherpa was a very special dog Jamie was a special guardian to Sherpa that was a great partnership.
He really was one of a kind.
I didn't think I was going to cry while listening but here I am. You just popped up on my feed below jamie and now I'm subscribed. I feel for jamie, miss sherpa, and send a hug to you.
Thank you for subscribing. I still watch the videos that Jamie puts up, but some are a bit sad to watch. ❤️
thank you very much for sharing this video , I miss Sherpa so much & I truly believe that our Heavenly Father has welcomed Sherpa into his eternal home where there's no sickness or sadness but instead everlasting happiness , I'm most grateful to Sherpa & Jamie for helping me to overcome the sadness in my heart from the loss of my best friends Champ & Cujo , I won't ever forget Sherpa & Jamie 🙏
Beautifully said. Thank you for this rumination. It was oddly consoling- this acceptance of the inevitability of grief. Sherpa’s death has been strangely devastating for me (my dog is 12) and I have been thinking of Jamie these past few days.
Yes, we must accept. That’s the cycle.
It is difficult to accept, but I think we know too much. We would be better just living in the now like our 4 legged companions.
Thank You for your kind recognition of a very loving Dog Dad and his heart Lord Sherpa.
Thank you.
Ahh, thank you…..I hope Jamie sees this. Yes I loved to follow Sherpa and Jamie….
Sherpa touched so many lives.
He is definitely missed
For a long time, I suspect.
My Dad watched the world. He would sit quietly and observe without comment. He wasn't intellectual, he was wise.
I had a Dad like that too. Lucky me.
I came here for the wonderful words about Sherpa and Jamie… and I will follow now because of your lovely wisdom and insight. How nice to discover a treasure out of a place of loss.
Thank you Nigel.....what a nice surprise. My heart skipped a beat when I saw the grass behind you. I thought you were in Sherpie's Garden and visiting Jamie! When it's time I see a new pup running around there. Would love Sarah to being Dexter over and let him go crazy in the open. XO
❤to you and Miss Molly 🐕 a world of love and health.
I'm not afraid of dying, I'm afraid of dying in pain. I hope to just slip away. I think we are blessed that can stop the hurt and strggles when our furbabies are sick.
I have been present on three endings of cats and it's calm, seren and somber. The vets are angels in that situation.
I can really relate to just sit and take your life in, be greatful for what you have, don't strive to acumulate 'stuff' - acumulate experiences! ❤❤❤
Beautiful tribute to Sherpa. Lovely words
Thank you. ❤️
I have been watching both Sherpa and Sherpa's Day for just over 4 years. Like all others here, I am crushed by the loss of Sherpa. The loss is global. He was a wonderful boy. Jamie is a great dog owner and he is an exemplary dog dad. Thank you for honouring Jamie and Sherpa's memory
Thanks for your lovely comments regarding Sherpa and Jamie. I just lost my 13 1/2 year old Malamute who was named Maya. These lovely animals are a gift. Thank you again.
I hope he eventually gets another dog... good owner, good home, good garden... I think he will need to at some point.
I agree ,Jamie is going to be lost without Sherpa as his life revolved around him,
As the saying goes, Been there done that and got another dog [many times]
Nigel, this was a wonderful post, so well said. Sherpa was such a lovely, happy, friendly, beautiful character. I started watching him after our Theo died (he looked a lot like Sherpa) and it helped me enormously. It’s two years and I still miss Theo. We are so lucky to have had our beloved dogs. I hope Molly lasts a good while longer, but your words about grief and you know what’s coming at some point are very wise.
Thank you for mentioning Sherpa and Jaime. Thank you for honoring them both. 🙏
Thank you. 🐶
I have been watching Jamie and Sherpa for years. When Sherpa passed I cried for he and for Jamie. ❤❤ When I saw that your video was having to do with Sherpa I clicked on it. I don't know how I have missed your videos in the past but I am grateful that you did such a lovely tribute to Sherpa and Jamie. I'm now a new subscriber for you. Thank you sir. ❤❤
I have been through losing a dog many times in my life but I know they are waiting at the Rainbow Bridge. Sugar, my husky, I had to put to sleep 10 years ago, wasn't going to get another dog. But, I cannot live without a dog. Six month later I saw Majik (flatcoat/golden mix), almost 8 weeks old, she looks like a black golden, on a rescue site. I still miss all the dogs I have had but Majik is the best, sweetest dog I have ever had. Having her in my life has helped me get over Sugar. There is always a puppy who needs a loving home.
It's been 4yrs now and I haven't gotten another baby. However, it is always on my mind. I miss dog energy.
You sir are a wise and intelligent individual.
I would like to thank you for this. I really needed to hear your message. My mom passed away in 2022 from cancer and losing my beagle in 2013.
I also have been following Shepra and Jamie for a few years. Like many others, I am heartbroken.
It is very sad. Jamie has lots of support. I hope it helps.
I was so sad when Sherpa died. I cried through the whole video. Jaime is so lucky he has so many videos of him. I think that people are more afraid of death when they are young. As you age you lose many friends, relatives and animals. And then you are not as afraid of death because they are waiting for you in Heaven. Your little dog is so cute. Enjoy every second with her. I lost my little dog almost 6 years ago. I still miss him so much.
I cried during and after Jamie’s video too about Sherpas passing. It made me remember my late angel babies and also key, his best friend. That made me tear up more and it was nighttime when I watched.
You are a very wise man. Thanks for this post.
Sherpa has been part of my routine for years and I have been missing and grieving for him like so many others Sherpa touched around the world.
So glad I took the time to walk with you across your incredible landscape, under your incredible sky scape, listen to your simple and peaceful thoughts on life and death and how incredible Sherpa was, all spoken in that incredible accent.
I feel better now.
Thank you, sir. I hope we can walk together again some time.
Peace and love to you from Florida, USA.☮️❤️🇬🇧🇺🇸
