There Are No Sad Dogs In Heaven: Finding Comfort After the Loss of a Pet
by Sonya Fitzpatrick"[She] has the magic ingredients for a hit: pets, paranormal chats, and a sense of humor about it all. Yes, I'm hooked."--New York Post"If you think that psychic readings are just for human beings, then you thought wrong. Sonya Fitzpatrick, an English-born animal lover, not only psychically communicates with pets, but explains to their often frustrated owners just what's bothering them."--CBS NewsFor many of us, a pet is a part of our family; for some, they may be our only children. While all parents expect their children to outlive them, unfortunately, we can't expect the same from our pets.And, just like losing a family member, losing a pet causes grief and loss. They've been with us for years, some for decades, providing unconditional love, companionship and a sense of purpose. When they're gone, most of all, we want to know that our furry, feathered, or scaled friends are happy--wherever they are.For years, animal communicator Sonya Fitzpatrick has helped pet owners cope with the loss of their beloved companions; time and again she hears the same questions: Is my pet happy? Is it okay to get another pet? Using her personal experiences as well as the stories of the families she's worked with, Sonya sheds light on the questions that every grieving pet owner has, and assures the reader that there are, in fact, no sad dogs (or cats or birds or turtles or horses or cows) in heaven.
There Are No Sad Dogs in Heaven
by Sonya FitzpatrickOur pets are part of the family. For many they're as close as children; for some they may be our only children. And while most of us can expect that our children will outlive us, sadly, our pets almost never do.

For years, animal communicator Sonya Fitzpatrick has helped pet owners cope with the loss of their beloved companions. Many of them ask the same questions: Is my pet happy? Why did this happen? Is it okay to get another pet? Using her personal experiences as well as the stories of the families she's worked with, Sonya sheds some light on the questions that every grieving pet owner has, and assures the reader that there are, in fact, no sad dogs (or cats or birds or turtles or horses or cows) in heaven.

Unfortunately Emma hates small planes—almost as much as she hates fruitcake.But in the weeks leading up to Christmas, Emma discovers Oliver is not quite the Scrooge he sometimes seems. It all reminds her that there’s something about Christmas. Something special…Originally published in 2005
