Living with Pet Bereavement

With over two decades of experience supporting pet carers pre, during and post the loss of their much loved pets, Dawn Murray is one of the UK's leading pet loss support provider and pet bereavement counsellor.

Surviving Pet Loss, is a self-help guide, written by Dawn Murray, for those affected by pet bereavement. Grieving over a much loved pet can be a long and often lonely experience. This book will help you identify those overwhelming emotions and look at ways to help you through the grieving process and adjust to a ‘new’ life without your pet. 

K9 Magazine says ''Dawn Murray has some wise words for anyone going through the trauma of pet loss and this is a book that will provide a lot of comfort for people at a time when they will most certainly need it.”

Dawns book is available to purchase from our shop, and is also available on Amazon (both paperback and kindle versions) with all profits going to animal charities.
