The Pet Loss CompanionAbout this episode
Join family therapists and authors Ken Dolan-Del Vecchio and Nancy Saxton-Lopez as we share stories from Kelley about her family's beloved little dog, Truffle, and Amanda about her family's beloved cat, Leon. The title for this episode is a question asked by Kelley that we're sure resonates with all who've recently lost an animal companion. Reach Ken at kenddv@gmail.com; Nancy at nsaxtonlopez@csmpc.com We are happy to announce our affiliation with Bereave, a company that offers beautifully crafted granite pet memorial plaques.
