Dogs and cats are more than just pets for many people; they are members of the family. Dogs become mom and dad's companions, a child's best friend, and everyone's emotional support. Losing this cherished family member can be as tough as losing a human family member at times.

It's critical to convey your grief for someone's loss in a way that doesn't seem trite or cliché. We understand that it is often easier said than done, so here are 3 dog loss poems to express your deep condolence message and words of sympathy for loss to a friend or relative who has lost a cherished animal family member.

Don't Cry Sweet Mama Please Don't Weep

Don't cry sweet Mama, please don't weep.
Please try dear Mama, to get some sleep.
I know you're sad, and its because of me.
But don't cry Mama, for now, I am pain free.
I know you miss me, and I miss you too,
No one could have loved me more than you.
I know of some dogs that run away to die,
But not me Mama, I looked you straight in the eye.
I didn't want to leave you, but my body lost the fight.
And now my dearest Mama, you mourn me day and night.
You wished you could have given me a bit more time to live.
But Mama, believe me, I had little left to give.
I am glad you took me on that day, there was no other choice.
I would have told you to "do it" - if I had a human voice.
Don't feel guilty Mama, I know it broke your heart.
I was always going to leave you first, we knew it from the start.
But what a life you gave me, it really was the best.
Not many have a life like mine, for that, I am truly blessed.
I hope one day I will see you again,
With a smile upon your face.
But for now, I will snuggle up inside your heart,
My very favorite place.

Waiting at the door

I was just a pup when we first met,

I loved you from the start.
You picked me up and took me home, 

And placed me in your heart.

Good times we had together, 

We shared all life could throw.

But years passed all too quickly, 

My time has come to go.

I know how much you miss me, 

I know your heart is sore

I see the tears that fall 

When I'm not waiting at the door.

You always did your best for me, 

Your love was plain to see.

For even though it broke your heart, 

You set my spirit free.

So please be brave without me, 

One day we'll meet once more.

For when you're called to heaven, 

I'll be waiting at the door.
