When the time is right, Sherpa's gonna send you a wonderful companion to fill that back seat - not to replace him, but for you to share all the love and kindness you have in your heart.
I agree. Some day a little friend will come along and you will know. Many if us have been there. From time to time I see a movement out of the corner of his eye, there is nothing there but I know it is my Sammy, just checking up on us.
@@joannacurran8475 You are wording my experience as well; I hear a sound, see a shape, and know it's my doggos keeping an eye out for me, and somehow it is very comforting. I know what Jamie is going through, and my heart bleeds for him, but it will get mellower over time.
guys, too soon for this. when you lose a friend of over a decade, you don't just go find a replacement. please give jamie the time he needs to mourn his friend before encouraging him to move on to another pup. please. 🥀
Jamie you have to stop feeling bad about grieving, he was an integral part of your family. Those of us that have lost both pets and humans know exactly how you feel. He will always be right by your side protecting you. That he loves you is completely obvious in all the work you have done with sherpa. ❤❤❤
@@Robert-hn3gq this made me cry, when my dog passed away my mum had to hang up the laundry in the backyard for months I couldn't go there. It took me months to find the strength to go there and it's now over ten years since we said goodbye to that girl and my mother has passed away since then too three years ago.....
When I lost my dog I dug him a grave and buried him in the woods well away from my house. While I was digging it started to rain and I got all muddy. Finally I had him in his resting place and went to the house. I took my muddy boots off and left them on the front stoop. I had a bottle of wine and slept. Woke up the next day and went to the kitchen without my glasses on and saw something dark on the stoop through the window and opened the door to let Max in, and saw my muddy boots and remembered he was gone. Very tough morning. Hang tough Jamie, Sherpa wants you to have happy memories and not regrets.
It's brutal & there's no way to avoid those sudden harsh reminders. I remember finding a whisker stuck in one of my jumpers not long after I lost my 19 year old cat & just breaking down howling over it. Just have to be as kind to yourself as possible, I agree & think on the happy times.
Jamie - there is no right and there is no wrong to grief. Let it take you. It is meant to be painful but it is a healing pain so just go with it. Follow your instincts. Know that through the pain is love. ❤
Sherpa was sitting on a cloud saying to you " dad, I loved my garden. I loved patrolling it, laying in the shelter and watching you doing some gardening. I love you dad 💙"
He's around. The first dog we had used to sleep in our bed. When we had to say goodbye, I was in bed trying to sleep. All of a sudden I felt something jump on the bed. I looked back and nothing was there. I know it was our pup letting us know he was ok.🐾❤️🐾❤️
yes ,I agree , I have left much of my baby girls things out , it helps a lot, not for everyone I know but for me it is reassuring to see boo's things around claire
@@veganvocalist4782 ITA 💯 my heart passed Feb, 2020 and I still have her blankies on the corner of the sofa, where she loved to sit. I don't think, I'll ever put them away.
I'm a grown man- an outdoorsman, and ex-infantryman, and I am sitting here crying with you again. I'm so glad you mowed Sherpa's "toilet" into the lawn. As that beautiful garden grows, it grows as a monument to Sherpa, and to you, and the love you shared. Give yourself time, there is no rush at all to tidying up; it was one of the hardest things I had to do when my Soul Dog passed. We mourn with you Jamie, and you are in my thoughts and prayers. Thanks for sharing Sherpa and your life with us.
I’m weeping again due to these beautiful sentiments. Sending my love and prayers to aid you in returning to full strength, along with our Jamie. Warm hearted gentlemen both. Teresa
Hang on Jamie, a door to the future is going to open, and Sherpa will always be with you. There’s no time limit on love! You may just have to ask yourself, “What would Sherpa want for his Daddy?” Someday your heart will swell even bigger❣️🥰😍 Thank you Sherpa for being a loyal friend, dog, child, to Jamie. You taught him well, angel!
It is clear Sherpa loved his house and garden so I'm sure he's still there in his favourite spots watching over you. Those we love never leave they're all around you and especially in your heart ❤️
Dear Jamie. As everyone has said, there is no time limit on grief. There is nothing you are required to do or say. Sherpa was a huge part of your life. His loss is a great one. I don't know if this will give you comfort, but Buddhists believe in reincarnation after 49 days. The mourning period is 49 days. On the 100th day, people are assured that their loved one has been reborn. Sherpa is with you. He will always be with you. Don't push yourself to move forward. It will happen. Do not feel bad about breaking down. Your grief is your love.
The places that Sherpa used to go, patrol & sleep will always be Sherpa places even if you do mow the grass or move Sherpa's things. Life without your bestie will be weird for a while - just remember he's still with you in spirit.
Sherpa is chewing on chicken balls wagging his tail in heaven. You can be proud that he had a wonderful life Jamie. He will always be with you in spirit mate. Take good care of yourself….
Please don’t feel badly about getting emotional, Jamie. Heck, I am still crying over Sherpa-you are more than entitled to do so, too! It is always so hard to put their things away. I packed up my Suzi’s little outfits and leads and stuff and it was so painful. But her ashes are next to me as I work, with her collar and her photo. She is there with the ashes of her siblings that passed before her, and their collars and photos. I miss each of them every day. But what blessings they brought to my life, just as Sherpa did to yours. Love and hugs, Carmel. 💜💜💜
@@CelticAngel2530 I'm so sorry honey. Loss is never easy and everyone deals with it differently . I really hope you'll be ok. I lost both parents, both brothers, a BFF and all 3 of our dogs in the last 15 years. I get it. It just sucks!! You're in my thoughts and prayers
Jaimie, I lost my 17 year old doxie, Buddy, May 13th. His remains will be scattered with mine. Right now, they are in his bed next to my desk with a toy. There are toys all over the house, and I will keep his favorite clothes. I talk to him every day. I have no idea when the tears stop. But this weekend, I am going to start dog sitting. I think it will help. Buddy and I used to watch your and Sherpa's videos together ❤️. Bless you, Sweet Man. He will be with you forever.
Jamie, making that final decision is the last gift we can give our dogs,even though the grief tears us apart. Your love for Sherpa and the bond between the two of you shines through in every video. Sherpa will always be in your heart, and ours. ❤
Only people who truly love their animals like their own kids and treat them like their family would understand the pain and the grief you’re going through. Am broken hearted for you 😢 Sherpa was a huge character and not seeing him anymore in your videos is truly awful. The silence and the emptiness are so huge. Nothing and no one could ever replace,your beloved dog. Thank you for sharing beautiful Sherpa with us 💔
Jamie.. You have so much love to give. I fully understand that it's too early to go and get a new dog, but with all the love you have to give, and with your love for going on walks.. please concider visiting your local shelter and take one of the unfortunate doggo's there out for a walk. They could really use the excess love you have. You could even tell them about Sherpa. Sitting alone with all the grief isn't healthy. Give an unfortunate doggo some attention and share your grief, and they will help you in return.
💙💙💙💜💜💜💜 Thank you so much for checking in with us so regularly, it's essential for me personally to know you're any semblance of okay but are still getting by.
Good idea. My sister had her cat buried under their oak tree in the yard because he always played with and chased the squirrels around its base and up the trunk.
On the other hand: my hubby did a rebellish thing, instead of that he buried his father's last beloved dog in the garden of the house where that lovely dog lived his happy life, my hubby eventually buried the ashes in his owners grave, near the gravestone. (You aren't excatly supposed to that...) And a good decision was that, because the graveyard is still open, but the house with garden by and by was sold, because the relatives wanted it sold for the money they could get and share. Sold to the highest bidder, no relation. There the ashes are under a lovely rosebush on a stem from the garden of said house.
I found that the deep hurt that came from the emptiness of familiar places where my pup had been was eventually taken over by the good memories. It took a long while but I didn't like the idea of not being where he had always loved to be. On our walks, in the house, in the truck. When the feelings aren't so raw Sherpa's quirky, funny, rumbly presence will take over the space in your heart that hurts so much. They heal us even when they aren't with us.
Jamie love, you have no idea what Sherpa has meant to me for the last several years. I have metastatic ovarian cancer and for years I’d sit and watch your videos while getting chemo and radiation treatments. My team of chemo nurses and even some of the oncologists would sit and we went on all yours and Sherpa’s trips around the world and now my heart is so broken for you over losing your best friend. I’m grieving right along with you Jamie and that boy of yours is forever in your heart, his fluff around the yard and even his 💩 poop will bring life to Mother Earth and this is the circle of life as we know it. I live in the 🇺🇸 USA in a small sea coastal town called, Westerly, RI. I am 70 years young my dear and today is my 21st Cancerversary of my diagnosis of Ovarian cancer. It is because of Sherpie i am still here. I have come close to death a few times but im still here Jamie and it’s because of Divine Intervention and great doctors. I loved Sherpa and if you would allow it, may I send you a small gift I’m making just for you? Chin up mate, we all love you and you are never alone. 🤎🤍🩶
My heart goes out to you Jaime 😢 Taking a shower yesterday the shower door shook. I right away thought of Cookie. She always head butted the shower door as if to say Enough!!! Love ya 😘 Cookie and Sherpa the King of Goodness ❤❤❤ Jaime hoping your heart will heal. Thank you for sharing your pure Joy Sherpa with all of us. Joan
When my once-in-a-lifetime kitty died, I was devastated. It took me 10 years to get another cat, but when I did, I sorely regretted waiting so long. Nothing will ever fill that void, but having something to care for and continue the legacy sure does help. You're doing so well. ❤
My Tinker cat was that perfect mesh of souls for me. I met her just a few months into my marriage, and I realize now that she's gone, I'd kept track of how many years I'd been married by how old she was. And now, I figure it out by 17 plus how many years she's been gone. For me, she was my perfect match. I have always been able to bond with non-human souls on some level or other, wild or domesticated, but Tink was... that was a once-in-a-lifetime bond. Soul deep. I lost part of myself when she left me. And I'm crying again, as I have often lately. 5 years later. I still love you, Tinker bug. Always.
Jamie, you have every right in the world to still be grieving! Sherpa will ALWAYS BE YOUR BEST FRIEND!! You spent 13 WONDERFUL years together, adventuring, and then made a beautiful home & gorgeous garden for him! I LOVE the little bottles of his fluff! Larry will definitely appreciate you giving him one. I truly believe Sherpa is still with you and always will be. Your friend from the 🇺🇲 R.I.P PRECIOUS SHERPA 🐾🐕🦺💔🌈🕊😘💖
Jamie, I sent this before but in case you didn’t see it- Sherpas always in front of you to guide your path, always behind, to never lose sight of you, and sits by your side until the day you’re together again. ❤🌈❤️I believe this with all my heart for any of us that has lost our babies.
Sherpa's spirit is always with you. Look for the signs. You may dream about him, feel his presence or even smell him. He will never leave you. He loves you as much as you love him. One day he will send you another pup to love. RIP Sherpa ❤️🙏
Jamie do what I did. Adopt 2 cats of the same litter. Sit and watch them play. I did it. Grieving will be easier for you. CATS are healing animals. Don't go get another dog. You're too sensitive. It's time to take care of YOURSELF JAMIE ! YOURE still young and handsome. Time flies. Im 72 y.o. It seems like I was 30 yesterday. May God be with you on that quest of yourself ! He's got a plan for you. Sincerely Johanne from Canada.
@johannebernier3089 yes, sometimes I think it's best, when you lose an animal, to get one of another species. Doesn't feel like you're replacing your baby, but you still get companionship and get to give a great life to a babe
I lost my pup five years ago She is still alive to me in my memories A once in a lifetime pup is always loved and missed Sherpa lives through you and your memories
Give him time folks. It might take quite a while when you've lost the best dog ever. It took me two years before I could say my dog's name without crying.
Jamie, when you were outside and said "Sherpie, where are you, Buddy?" He did answer you ...inside the house when you smelt his fart! You knew it was him! Sherpa 🐺 will always be at your side or patrolling his garden. So, keep talking to him. ❤
Jamie, when my first dog passed away in 2019, I was devastated. My mum insisted I was depressed and paid for me to see a counselor. I told her what happened and how I felt and what was going on, and she said, " You are grieving. It looks like this. It is different every time, and it is different for every person. " I didn't want food, or another dog, or anything at all except to hold Oliver in my arms again. After a few months, I realized I needed another dog in my life, to help me be my best so I could continue to look after my cats. When the time was right, I adopted my current pup. I thought I'd feel sad forever, and I still miss Oliver, and I still think of him when I pass the place where he collapsed, or where we just sat when he was tired, but I'm sharing our favourite places with Wheeler now, and my heart feels mostly just love for them both. The pain of the loss eases over time. Sending love and strength ❤✊️
Jamie, you gave him a rich, full, beautiful life. Keep a dream journal by your bed. Write down the dreams you remember when you wake up. Sherpa will find away to visit you in your dreams.
Jamie sherpa is supervising you cutting his big green bed and thinking please look after my garden so I can see what you are doing. Please continue to upload videos
Jamie, I was going to suggest doing something similar volunteering in someway, not necessarily with animals if that might be a little hard, but maybe doing some voluntary work in another capacity. This may get you out of the house and meeting people and just passing the time and getting your mind off Sherper. It just may help and maybe worth a try. Best wishes. ❤❤❤🙌🏻
I think breed rescue fostering might be good Husky are hard to place and need people who can work with them But he needs a break and time I think sometimes years between animals Fostering is hard as well.. ibhavent done it but a friend who does says it is intense
I have fostered dogs in the past - always ended up adopting. It is a good way to see if there is a fit. I love the idea of you volunteering at an animal shelter. You would be among like minded individuals. Even introverts need other human interaction occasionally. 🥰
Jamie, please do not apologize for your grief. It's a natural human, with a heart, reaction. We pet parents understand. It's lonely to go home and it's empty. When you smell Sherpies sent (good or not so sweet), or when you think you feel something brush against you, I think that is their way of letting you know they are still with you. I'm feel quite certain, that, if you felt like you wanted to reach out to any of us to chat or vent, it would be perfectly fine. We're all here for you.
I miss seeing Sherpa lying in the backyard when you pan around. I keep thinking I'd catch a glimpse of him patrolling the perimeter or relaxing by the door 😢. The Polaroids and the bottle fluff are both priceless to you as well as his millions of fans.
Jamie, I lost my guy after 14 years start of June. I was devastated and still am. A good friend of mine suggested leaving items of his around the house as a gentle reminder. I couldn't bear to cleanse my life of him. I keep his blanket on my bed. His stuffed bear remains on the floor where he left it. He will always be with you. Our beloved animals really become part of us. It's hard to let go. You have a worldwide ring or friendship, likely many dog parents too! We're here and Sherpa will always be there, every step of the way. Big hugs from across the pond friend.
Jamie, I lost my dachshund, Oliver last year. I'd had him for 15 years (although he was 17). He was one day from being put down at the shelter I rescued him from. He was mommy's boy from that day on and my cuddle buddy. I had him throughout most of my abusive marriage, moving out and divorcing my ex, getting the divorce, reconnecting with my childhood sweetheart, moving to a new city and starting a new chapter in my life, moving in with said childhood sweetheart, us becoming a couple and therefore a family, and him gaining a big younger sister when we rescued a boxer from a homeless person. Thankfully, our boxer was a wonderful sister and protector for him for the last few months of his life. I was so grateful to have my now fiance with me when Oliver passed in my arms (at the vets office). I also had my fiance with me that whole day to comfort me. I was a wreck for a while after. I still cry over missing him just over a year later. He was my baby. The same way Sherpa was your baby and best friend. It's going to take quite a bit of time for you to move on and not be so sad. Don't apologize for it. You love him and that'll never stop. My fiance and I are sending our condolences and hugs to you. Sincerely, Robert & Christina in Fort Worth, Tx. 🤗
Took me more than one year to grieve my cat Halley. Now I am okay. Believe it or not she has reincarnated and is back with me, slightly different look but same energy and same eyes, I recognized her immediately and my mum recognized her too. I send you love, light and courage ❤
Jamie, I know how hard it is when your best friend is gone… everything reminds you of him. Don’t be afraid to find a new friend! 😊 Sherpa wouldn’t want you to be sad or lonely. ❤❤❤
My son lost his best friend 5 years ago, and his brother came to him one day with a puppy. He's been living with that puppy for 5 years now, and Bucky is the best friend of all of us now. Be patient. The dogs we get to love come into our lives by God..❤❤❤🐾🐾
Sherpa’s spirit is with you, Jamie. He was everything to you & everything you did was for him. Let yourself grieve. Don’t ever feel bad for taking your time with it. Are you going to bury his ashes in his garden?
Don’t feel bad or apologize for grieving Sherpa. At some point he will send you a new friend to care for and love as you do Sherpa. He’ll always be in your heart.., that love never goes away.
Have you seen all the tributes to Sherpa? I have seen at least 10. That's amazing. Sherpa has affected so many people's lives, from all over the place thanks for sharing him with us for all these years. may GOD have mercy on your heart
Jaime, we all grieve on our own time-lines. Just take a day at a time. Memories will startle you. You'll hear their collar jingle, their bark, their feet click on tile. Remember the good times and the love. ❤
I know how hard it is on July 31st three years ago I lost my best friend Charlie. People say it gets easier in time but it really doesn't. Peace and love to two of the best dogs in the world Sherpa and Charlie boy we will miss them both.
Jamie, don't rush the grieving, nor the deep cleaning. Just take every day as it is. Maybe some volunteering at a shelter, or a quick escapade alone, some training, or a new wood project. But don't feel bad for being emotional. Heck, most of us come here and shed some tears, so you are super entitled to be sad. But also do something nice for you. Go watch a movie. Go eat somewhere fancy. Go swim and dive. You have every right to be sad but you also deserve to be happy. ❤ Hugs from Argentina.
We are all here for you Jamie, loving and supporting you. Please keep in touch with us. I have cried so much since hearing the sad news of Sherpa. He will forever be loved and missed. Such an amazing, wonderful boy. Sherpa knew how much you loved him Jamie (and always will love him). Take care, stay strong - we are all with you xx
Take your time for grieving, Sherpa was a big part of your life. You where a team. He will never leave you, he will always right by your side. You was a very special and good daddy to him. You are a wonderful man. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sherpa is with all of the snowdogs, shiloh, Oakley, and Shelby and phil,running and playing in the snow they will wait for their humans to join them with joy. Angels of love.I know you will shed many tears,hold strong. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Every dog is different. A new four legged will never replace Sherpa but will help you heal. I know it's too soon. Most of us out here know your pain. My dog is 21.
After we lost our dog, we swore that we could never get another. We have two now. You can never ever replace Sherpa. All that you can do is love another. Give it a bit more time. Sherpa wouldn’t want you to be without another dog to love. You will be able to talk to the new dog about Sherpa and all the places that you went and did together. It will feel like it’s the three of you.
My nephew had to 'release' his big Labrador from pain, 6-7 years ago. He said he couldn't, wouldn't...... but I just got a group text from him an hour ago. A big silly pit or Rottie mix showed up a few days ago. He took him to the dog shelter with the choice to take the dog back if owners don't show up. Seven days later, the dog is playing in HIS creek now then zooming all over the place, and slobbering on my nephew. I guess this beastie knew he was needed there.

There's no timeline for grieving, and losing a pet hurts more than losing a person. Pets give us unconditional love, unlike people.
Absolutely ❤

Sherpa was a part of my, and many people's, daily life and thank you for still uploading videos of him. Lord Sherpa is still with us in spirit.
It is clear Sherpa loved his house and garden so I'm sure he's still there in his favourite spots watching over you. Those we love never leave they're all around you and especially in your heart ❤️
❤
Dear Jamie. As everyone has said, there is no time limit on grief. There is nothing you are required to do or say. Sherpa was a huge part of your life. His loss is a great one. I don't know if this will give you comfort, but Buddhists believe in reincarnation after 49 days. The mourning period is 49 days. On the 100th day, people are assured that their loved one has been reborn. Sherpa is with you. He will always be with you. Don't push yourself to move forward. It will happen. Do not feel bad about breaking down. Your grief is your love.
The places that Sherpa used to go, patrol & sleep will always be Sherpa places even if you do mow the grass or move Sherpa's things. Life without your bestie will be weird for a while - just remember he's still with you in spirit.
Sherpa is chewing on chicken balls wagging his tail in heaven. You can be proud that he had a wonderful life Jamie. He will always be with you in spirit mate. Take good care of yourself….
Please don’t feel badly about getting emotional, Jamie. Heck, I am still crying over Sherpa-you are more than entitled to do so, too! It is always so hard to put their things away. I packed up my Suzi’s little outfits and leads and stuff and it was so painful. But her ashes are next to me as I work, with her collar and her photo. She is there with the ashes of her siblings that passed before her, and their collars and photos. I miss each of them every day. But what blessings they brought to my life, just as Sherpa did to yours. Love and hugs, Carmel. 💜💜💜
Me 2 i love Sherpa and i had book in my Book
I agree! I know many of us are still crying, myself included.
Right??? That's when the onions hit me again. 😭😭😭
❤
Am with you, as am still crying over Sherps :(
Dear sweet Jaime, it takes time to learn to live without them. It's never an easy transition. You'll get there.
That's so true. I needed to read that myself as I am trying to transition from not having my BFF.
@@CelticAngel2530 I'm so sorry honey. Loss is never easy and everyone deals with it differently . I really hope you'll be ok. I lost both parents, both brothers, a BFF and all 3 of our dogs in the last 15 years. I get it. It just sucks!! You're in my thoughts and prayers
Jaimie, I lost my 17 year old doxie, Buddy, May 13th. His remains will be scattered with mine. Right now, they are in his bed next to my desk with a toy. There are toys all over the house, and I will keep his favorite clothes. I talk to him every day. I have no idea when the tears stop. But this weekend, I am going to start dog sitting. I think it will help. Buddy and I used to watch your and Sherpa's videos together ❤️. Bless you, Sweet Man. He will be with you forever.
Jamie, making that final decision is the last gift we can give our dogs,even though the grief tears us apart. Your love for Sherpa and the bond between the two of you shines through in every video. Sherpa will always be in your heart, and ours. ❤
He's walking beside you always.
Tears are falling here in the US
Big time! 😢😢❤
You never get over loosing someone so special, you learn to live with the loss.....but you never forget ❤
That's the honest truth.
Hey Jamie, try to look at it this way. By cutting the grass you're redistributing all the Sherpa goodness back into his garden that he loved so much.
Cry it all out Jamie. Don't feel rushed or silly about how you feel. We cry right along with you.
Only people who truly love their animals like their own kids and treat them like their family would understand the pain and the grief you’re going through. Am broken hearted for you 😢 Sherpa was a huge character and not seeing him anymore in your videos is truly awful. The silence and the emptiness are so huge. Nothing and no one could ever replace,your beloved dog. Thank you for sharing beautiful Sherpa with us 💔
❤❤❤❤❤ for the dog the whole world loved.
Our beloved Sherpa is everywhere. Even in our hearts. Which are broken! 😭😭💔💔❤❤
😭💔
Grief is hard, you were the best Dad to Sherpa, you gave him everything, he is no longer suffering, it takes time and you will heal.
Jamie.. You have so much love to give.
I fully understand that it's too early to go and get a new dog, but with all the love you have to give, and with your love for going on walks.. please concider visiting your local shelter and take one of the unfortunate doggo's there out for a walk. They could really use the excess love you have.
You could even tell them about Sherpa.
Sitting alone with all the grief isn't healthy. Give an unfortunate doggo some attention and share your grief, and they will help you in return.
My heart aches, too, Jamie.
Sherpy will always be patrolling his garden and accompanying you on outings! His spirit is bonded with you forever! 🕊️🐶❤️
💙💙💙💜💜💜💜 Thank you so much for checking in with us so regularly, it's essential for me personally to know you're any semblance of okay but are still getting by.
absolutely we need to keep checking in with Jamie because we love him too ❤
I think when you get his ashes you should plant a tree in your garden dedicate to Sherpa. That way you can see him all the time.
What a lovely idea
I love this idea 👍👍👍
Good idea. My sister had her cat buried under their oak tree in the yard because he always played with and chased the squirrels around its base and up the trunk.
Yes, ashes will give the tree a good healthy transition into the garden. How lovely its growth will be.
On the other hand: my hubby did a rebellish thing, instead of that he buried his father's last beloved dog in the garden of the house where that lovely dog lived his happy life, my hubby eventually buried the ashes in his owners grave, near the gravestone. (You aren't excatly supposed to that...) And a good decision was that, because the graveyard is still open, but the house with garden by and by was sold, because the relatives wanted it sold for the money they could get and share. Sold to the highest bidder, no relation. There the ashes are under a lovely rosebush on a stem from the garden of said house.
I found that the deep hurt that came from the emptiness of familiar places where my pup had been was eventually taken over by the good memories. It took a long while but I didn't like the idea of not being where he had always loved to be. On our walks, in the house, in the truck. When the feelings aren't so raw Sherpa's quirky, funny, rumbly presence will take over the space in your heart that hurts so much. They heal us even when they aren't with us.
Oh Jamie...Its so hard to get used to your best buddy leaving. But I'm sure he is right there with you. He would'nt want you to be so sad. 💞🐕
He will make himself known when you least expect it (even farts).❤❤
So hard to lose a fluff-maker, even when it means gaining a guardian angel. I'm sure he still patrols his garden and walks beside his dad.
Jamie love, you have no idea what Sherpa has meant to me for the last several years. I have metastatic ovarian cancer and for years I’d sit and watch your videos while getting chemo and radiation treatments. My team of chemo nurses and even some of the oncologists would sit and we went on all yours and Sherpa’s trips around the world and now my heart is so broken for you over losing your best friend. I’m grieving right along with you Jamie and that boy of yours is forever in your heart, his fluff around the yard and even his 💩 poop will bring life to Mother Earth and this is the circle of life as we know it. I live in the 🇺🇸 USA in a small sea coastal town called, Westerly, RI. I am 70 years young my dear and today is my 21st Cancerversary of my diagnosis of Ovarian cancer. It is because of Sherpie i am still here. I have come close to death a few times but im still here Jamie and it’s because of Divine Intervention and great doctors. I loved Sherpa and if you would allow it, may I send you a small gift I’m making just for you? Chin up mate, we all love you and you are never alone. 🤎🤍🩶
My heart goes out to you Jaime 😢 Taking a shower yesterday the shower door shook. I right away thought of Cookie. She always head butted the shower door as if to say Enough!!! Love ya 😘 Cookie and Sherpa the King of Goodness ❤❤❤ Jaime hoping your heart will heal. Thank you for sharing your pure Joy Sherpa with all of us. Joan
Sherpie- Forever in our hearts❤
He's still there patrolling his garden watching over you
Baby steps... You're grieving. It's OK! Keep moving. Keep talking. We're here; listening! 🤗🌼🌟
❤
When my once-in-a-lifetime kitty died, I was devastated. It took me 10 years to get another cat, but when I did, I sorely regretted waiting so long. Nothing will ever fill that void, but having something to care for and continue the legacy sure does help. You're doing so well. ❤
Well said! 🙏
My Tinker cat was that perfect mesh of souls for me. I met her just a few months into my marriage, and I realize now that she's gone, I'd kept track of how many years I'd been married by how old she was. And now, I figure it out by 17 plus how many years she's been gone. For me, she was my perfect match. I have always been able to bond with non-human souls on some level or other, wild or domesticated, but Tink was... that was a once-in-a-lifetime bond. Soul deep. I lost part of myself when she left me. And I'm crying again, as I have often lately. 5 years later. I still love you, Tinker bug. Always.
Jamie, you have every right in the world to still be grieving! Sherpa will ALWAYS BE YOUR BEST FRIEND!! You spent 13 WONDERFUL years together, adventuring, and then made a beautiful home & gorgeous garden for him! I LOVE the little bottles of his fluff! Larry will definitely appreciate you giving him one. I truly believe Sherpa is still with you and always will be. Your friend from the 🇺🇲
R.I.P PRECIOUS SHERPA 🐾🐕🦺💔🌈🕊😘💖
Please visit and volunteer at a local Dog shelter Jamie.. There are so many dogs that needs a dad like you ❤
Jamie, I sent this before but in case you didn’t see it- Sherpas always in front of you to guide your path, always behind, to never lose sight of you, and sits by your side until the day you’re together again. ❤🌈❤️I believe this with all my heart for any of us that has lost our babies.
❤
@@c_larsen❤ That's beautiful and thoughtful for Jamie and Sherpa 🐺.
Sherpa's spirit is always with you. Look for the signs. You may dream about him, feel his presence or even smell him. He will never leave you. He loves you as much as you love him. One day he will send you another pup to love. RIP Sherpa ❤️🙏
Hang in there Jamie, 😢 we dog people are all saddened by your lost .
*pet owners... I don't believe that there's a difference between dogs, cats and other companion pets.
And kitty people too. I've lost a couple in my life.
I'm a cat, dog, spider lady and I empathize with him. I love all animals ❤
Jamie do what I did. Adopt 2 cats of the same litter. Sit and watch them play. I did it. Grieving will be easier for you. CATS are healing animals. Don't go get another dog. You're too sensitive. It's time to take care of YOURSELF JAMIE ! YOURE still young and handsome. Time flies. Im 72 y.o. It seems like I was 30 yesterday. May God be with you on that quest of yourself ! He's got a plan for you. Sincerely Johanne from Canada.
@johannebernier3089 yes, sometimes I think it's best, when you lose an animal, to get one of another species. Doesn't feel like you're replacing your baby, but you still get companionship and get to give a great life to a babe
It's rough, Jamie, but you gave him such a wonderful life! And vice versa.
Life is empty without them ♥️🐕💙..
I lost my pup five years ago
She is still alive to me in my memories
A once in a lifetime pup is always loved and missed
Sherpa lives through you and your memories
When you have mourned, please get another dog. You're too much of a wonderful owner not to get another dog. Do it for us, for you, and Sherpa's memory
and do it for the dog that will have the best life ever. it'd be like winning the lottery.
Give him time folks. It might take quite a while when you've lost the best dog ever. It took me two years before I could say my dog's name without crying.
Yes by all means get a new pet ONLY when you’re ready!!! You were a wonderful pet owner & Sherpa would want you to dote on another
Yes, please ❤
@@gaileverettGail it took us two years also between our beautiful pups ….. ❤
Jamie, when you were outside and said "Sherpie, where are you, Buddy?" He did answer you ...inside the house when you smelt his fart! You knew it was him! Sherpa 🐺 will always be at your side or patrolling his garden. So, keep talking to him. ❤
Oh Thor. I am so so so so so sorry for your loss!!!!! I was really hoping he survived for more years!
Jamie, when my first dog passed away in 2019, I was devastated. My mum insisted I was depressed and paid for me to see a counselor. I told her what happened and how I felt and what was going on, and she said, " You are grieving. It looks like this. It is different every time, and it is different for every person. " I didn't want food, or another dog, or anything at all except to hold Oliver in my arms again. After a few months, I realized I needed another dog in my life, to help me be my best so I could continue to look after my cats. When the time was right, I adopted my current pup. I thought I'd feel sad forever, and I still miss Oliver, and I still think of him when I pass the place where he collapsed, or where we just sat when he was tired, but I'm sharing our favourite places with Wheeler now, and my heart feels mostly just love for them both. The pain of the loss eases over time. Sending love and strength ❤✊️
Jamie, you gave him a rich, full, beautiful life.
Keep a dream journal by your bed. Write down the dreams you remember when you wake up. Sherpa will find away to visit you in your dreams.
Yes, lovely advice. ❤
Beautiful advice ❤
Jamie sherpa is supervising you cutting his big green bed and thinking please look after my garden so I can see what you are doing. Please continue to upload videos
I believe Jamie will one day show off his new fluffy companion. I think he needs it more than ever...
Yes, Sherpa is just training him to be a good boy, then he'll send him to Jamie.
My heart hurts watching sometimes. It reminds me of those that I have lost. Painful😢 ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Sherpa is in good hands.
He had the best time .😊
We share these beautiful moments.
Ty
With love 🙏🏼❤️
Jamie please go volunteer at an animal shelter. I think it would bring you joy 🎉❤Sherpa always loved never forgot ❤❤❤
Yes, or maybe foster dogs in his lovely home.
Jamie, I was going to suggest doing something similar volunteering in someway, not necessarily with animals if that might be a little hard, but maybe doing some voluntary work in another capacity. This may get you out of the house and meeting people and just passing the time and getting your mind off Sherper. It just may help and maybe worth a try. Best wishes. ❤❤❤🙌🏻
I think breed rescue fostering might be good
Husky are hard to place and need people who can work with them
But he needs a break and time
I think sometimes years between animals
Fostering is hard as well.. ibhavent done it but a friend who does says it is intense
I have fostered dogs in the past - always ended up adopting. It is a good way to see if there is a fit. I love the idea of you volunteering at an animal shelter. You would be among like minded individuals. Even introverts need other human interaction occasionally. 🥰
Please, let him mourn in pease. When he's ready, he will take a step in a direction that suits him.
Jamie, please do not apologize for your grief. It's a natural human, with a heart, reaction. We pet parents understand. It's lonely to go home and it's empty. When you smell Sherpies sent (good or not so sweet), or when you think you feel something brush against you, I think that is their way of letting you know they are still with you. I'm feel quite certain, that, if you felt like you wanted to reach out to any of us to chat or vent, it would be perfectly fine. We're all here for you.
❤
Sherpa was truly one in a million and we all miss him so much. Hang in there Jamie we’re all behind you!
It’s been six years and counting… such an indescribable loss.
I miss seeing Sherpa lying in the backyard when you pan around. I keep thinking I'd catch a glimpse of him patrolling the perimeter or relaxing by the door 😢. The Polaroids and the bottle fluff are both priceless to you as well as his millions of fans.
Bawling my eyes out for the magnificence that was Sherpa.
Jamie, I lost my guy after 14 years start of June. I was devastated and still am. A good friend of mine suggested leaving items of his around the house as a gentle reminder. I couldn't bear to cleanse my life of him. I keep his blanket on my bed. His stuffed bear remains on the floor where he left it. He will always be with you. Our beloved animals really become part of us. It's hard to let go. You have a worldwide ring or friendship, likely many dog parents too! We're here and Sherpa will always be there, every step of the way. Big hugs from across the pond friend.
I still have my Snoopy's toys 🧸 all around the house 🏠 ❤
I can't see a video about Sherpie I still cry like a baby and I'm 52
Love you FOREVER Sherpina 😢❤
So sorry Jamie 😢❤
Jamie, I lost my dachshund, Oliver last year. I'd had him for 15 years (although he was 17). He was one day from being put down at the shelter I rescued him from. He was mommy's boy from that day on and my cuddle buddy. I had him throughout most of my abusive marriage, moving out and divorcing my ex, getting the divorce, reconnecting with my childhood sweetheart, moving to a new city and starting a new chapter in my life, moving in with said childhood sweetheart, us becoming a couple and therefore a family, and him gaining a big younger sister when we rescued a boxer from a homeless person. Thankfully, our boxer was a wonderful sister and protector for him for the last few months of his life. I was so grateful to have my now fiance with me when Oliver passed in my arms (at the vets office). I also had my fiance with me that whole day to comfort me. I was a wreck for a while after. I still cry over missing him just over a year later. He was my baby. The same way Sherpa was your baby and best friend. It's going to take quite a bit of time for you to move on and not be so sad. Don't apologize for it. You love him and that'll never stop. My fiance and I are sending our condolences and hugs to you. Sincerely, Robert & Christina in Fort Worth, Tx. 🤗
Took me more than one year to grieve my cat Halley. Now I am okay. Believe it or not she has reincarnated and is back with me, slightly different look but same energy and same eyes, I recognized her immediately and my mum recognized her too. I send you love, light and courage ❤
Jamie, I know how hard it is when your best friend is gone… everything reminds you of him. Don’t be afraid to find a new friend! 😊 Sherpa wouldn’t want you to be sad or lonely. ❤❤❤
My son lost his best friend 5 years ago, and his brother came to him one day with a puppy. He's been living with that puppy for 5 years now, and Bucky is the best friend of all of us now. Be patient. The dogs we get to love come into our lives by God..❤❤❤🐾🐾
❤️❤️
it is a part of my routine to watch your videos. still is. watching you vacuum sherpa’s fluff from the jeep made me cry.
Sherpa’s spirit is with you, Jamie. He was everything to you & everything you did was for him. Let yourself grieve. Don’t ever feel bad for taking your time with it. Are you going to bury his ashes in his garden?
Oh I'm just bawling my eyes out. My Mum's getting worried about me. It's tragic. Rest is peace Sherpee...love you forever.
Don’t feel bad or apologize for grieving Sherpa. At some point he will send you a new friend to care for and love as you do Sherpa. He’ll always be in your heart.., that love never goes away.
Have you seen all the tributes to Sherpa? I have seen at least 10. That's amazing. Sherpa has affected so many people's lives, from all over the place thanks for sharing him with us for all these years. may GOD have mercy on your heart
One day at a time, dearheart, one day at a time. Time doesn't heals all wounds, but dulls the sharpness of the pain.
So true 😢💔
Amen!
So true,.....so very, very true💔😥
Jaime, we all grieve on our own time-lines. Just take a day at a time. Memories will startle you. You'll hear their collar jingle, their bark, their feet click on tile. Remember the good times and the love. ❤
I know how hard it is on July 31st three years ago I lost my best friend Charlie. People say it gets easier in time but it really doesn't. Peace and love to two of the best dogs in the world Sherpa and Charlie boy we will miss them both.
Jamie, don't rush the grieving, nor the deep cleaning. Just take every day as it is. Maybe some volunteering at a shelter, or a quick escapade alone, some training, or a new wood project. But don't feel bad for being emotional. Heck, most of us come here and shed some tears, so you are super entitled to be sad. But also do something nice for you. Go watch a movie. Go eat somewhere fancy. Go swim and dive. You have every right to be sad but you also deserve to be happy. ❤ Hugs from Argentina.
we're here for you Jamie. Still missing Sherpa.
Hi Jamie we are all with you.. sending you hugs and love ❤ we all miss Sherpa he is with you for sure I am crying again 😢
You are definitely not alone!
We are all here for you Jamie, loving and supporting you. Please keep in touch with us. I have cried so much since hearing the sad news of Sherpa. He will forever be loved and missed. Such an amazing, wonderful boy. Sherpa knew how much you loved him Jamie (and always will love him). Take care, stay strong - we are all with you xx
Take your time for grieving, Sherpa was a big part of your life. You where a team. He will never leave you, he will always right by your side. You was a very special and good daddy to him. You are a wonderful man. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jamie you definitely have a lot of love to give another buddy. You will be surprised how another dog will help heal your heart and loneliness
Absolutely it takes me 2 years and I will never forget my boy but what a comfort to have my new Friend. Missing you Sherpa.🙏💔
Sherpa is with all of the snowdogs, shiloh, Oakley, and Shelby and phil,running and playing in the snow they will wait for their humans to join them with joy. Angels of love.I know you will shed many tears,hold strong. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Every dog is different. A new four legged will never replace Sherpa but will help you heal. I know it's too soon. Most of us out here know your pain. My dog is 21.
I was thinking maybe a rescue next time, whenever that is. Sherpa’s garden is perfect for that too.
After we lost our dog, we swore that we could never get another. We have two now. You can never ever replace Sherpa. All that you can do is love another. Give it a bit more time. Sherpa wouldn’t want you to be without another dog to love. You will be able to talk to the new dog about Sherpa and all the places that you went and did together. It will feel like it’s the three of you.
My nephew had to 'release' his big Labrador from pain, 6-7 years ago. He said he couldn't, wouldn't...... but I just got a group text from him an hour ago. A big silly pit or Rottie mix showed up a few days ago. He took him to the dog shelter with the choice to take the dog back if owners don't show up. Seven days later, the dog is playing in HIS creek now then zooming all over the place, and slobbering on my nephew. I guess this beastie knew he was needed there.
Lovely words Ember Teddy.❤
When they die, part of you dies with them.The wound will heal, but the scars remain❤❤❤❤
Don't worry about how long it takes. Grieve as you need.
