Paws in Mourning: A Journey Through Grief and Resilience

By Monica Levert

Paws in Mourning: A Journey Through Grief and Resilience explores the way dogs experience separation and how their grief mirrors our own.

Through the story of Jerry, a spirited Samoyed mourning his companion Namkha, Monica Levert explores the nature of loss. "Grief doesn't always speak in words," she writes. "Often, it curls in corners, hides beneath beds, or sits calmly beside us, defying explanation." Weaving personal narrative with science, she draws on grief theory, neuroscience, and animal behaviour to show how dogs experience, process, and adapt to loss.

Literary and artistic references offer a gentle bridge between knowledge and emotion, while practical guidance helps readers accompany dogs through bereavement, separation, and change.

This is a lyrical meditation on vulnerability, memory, and the power of presence and attunement. It is for anyone who has loved and lost.
