One of the most painful events in my life was losing my special girl, Dixie, to a horrible illness. A loving, gentle Pyrenees not even 9 years old. To be able to arrange such dignified and compassionate handling to honor her, and receive such kind, caring support, was absolutely phenomenal. I didn’t feel ok leaving her with the vet to handle cremation. I wanted her with me and to be involved in her aftercare. Words cannot express how comforting that was to call Faithful Companion while I was experiencing such tremendous grief and have them give me options to help. Everyone I spoke with was genuinely wonderful, both drivers were so caring, and I am very grateful. The driver ensured I knew my options and that everything was correct. I was able to place her in her casket and add a few fresh roses. Wrote a note on the inside of the lid to her. Helped carry her to the vehicle which was a nice minivan. Of course I can’t bear to think about losing another right now but when the time comes it’s incredibly helpful to know I now have a plan in place that really honors how much they mean to me, and allows me to focus on holding them, caring for them one last time and saying goodbye, rather than figuring out what to do or who to call. Can’t recommend Faithful Companion enough.
