About this episode
The holidays can be one of the hardest times to grieve the loss of a beloved pet. The joy all around can feel heavy when the one you love most is missing. This is my second Christmas without Max, and I still cry — often. The grief doesn’t disappear just because time has passed. If you’re feeling this too, please know you are not alone. In this very special and deeply personal episode, I’m joined by pet loss grief counselor Beth Biglar , who offers compassion, understanding, and gentle guidance for anyone navigating pet loss during the holidays. We talk about love, loss, and how to move through this season with kindness toward yourself. Beth also shares her 12 Days of Christmas support for grieving pet parents — small, meaningful ways to help you cope, one day at a time. This episode is meant to hold space for you. To remind you that there is a dog-loving community out there, ready to support you, to listen, and to walk beside you through the grief. This is also the final episode of the season . As we close out this year, I want to thank you — truly — for listening, for sharing, and for being part of A Dog’s Devotion . Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas , and sending you love and peace during this tender season. If this episode helps you, please consider subscribing to the podcast and the channel .
