Coco
“My hooman told me that I have taught her the importance to take a step back and appreciate the little moments that we have together. That we pups bring immense joy and love to their lives.
It’s important for mental health to take a step back, to reflect and breathe and enjoy these moments and be grateful for the joy and love that our pups bring into our lives. It helps us stay balanced and grounded.”

Baco & Abbie & Spike (2010- 2023)
BACO:
“I found Baco in a Belgium petstore, surrounded by at least a hundred other pups... but from the moment our eyes met.. we only had eyes for eachother.. and I knew he was coming home with me, one way or another.
At the time I was in a relationship I didn't wanna be in.. but I always have put others needs before my own. Maybe the root of my anxiety and depression problems anyway.. let's not open that door
Back then nothing was going right, a bunch of chronic illnesses were getting worse, getting new ones.. losing my job and my sanity all at once..
I was having very bad anger issues..
Baco, taught me patience, unconditional love and learn to live in the moment again. And after a while, he gave me strength to end a bad relationship.
We've been through a lot together.. we've build or home and family together but also lost our family.. saying goodbye to Diablo, Nicky, Delaja and his other half Pelle.
But after all that, he still stands tall, plays, loves and lives his life to the fullest.
And be there for me, pulling my mind out of dark places in this difficult yourney that's called grief.
While grieving his own grief..
If he can do all that... what's my excuse for not doing or atleast trying to do the same?!
Because our lives, especially their lives are so short.. we gotta savor each moment.
Get that extra walkie in... When leaving the house, go back for the extra cuddle and tell them you love them so so much 10 times.
Give em that snackie, give yourself that snackie don't be so tough on yourself.. make mistakes, forgive yourself and cry or scream when you feel the need to, but after, shake it off and keep going..
That is what he has and keeps teaching me.
I dont know where I wouldve been without this boy.. and I hope he still has many more happy and healthy years with me because he is the best co-pilot in this crazy world and the one that keeps me sane(ish) ”
ABBIE:
“Abbie's story begins before she was born.
I lost my souldog, my babygirl Pelle unexpectedly last November and only 5 months earlier my other sweet girl, Delaja. Now left with 2 old boys that seriously don't like each other and the silence... oh man, the silence without my silly and very lively girls, was just the salt in this big gaping wound in my heart and soul. The first month I was in the darkest place I have ever been. And that for someone that has been dealing with depression since being a little girl. But I immediately felt like I needed a new little girl, not just for me, but for Baco too. After a bit of research, I realized that it was unaffordable for me at that point. (Christmas and Covid Prices), which put me down even more..
Fast forward to April this year…April 7th to be exact.. that was my lucky day, I found an ad with maltese pups I could afford. Immediately I called and made an appointment for the next day.. And there was Abbie.. Oh lordy, she was the most perfect little girl. And when they handed her over to me, I cried many happy tears.. I still do some days (fun fact. She was born on valentine's day) She has brought so much joy and extra love back into our home.. but as the wild child as she is, she also keeps me on my toes and challenges me like no one has before. And I LOVE every bit of it...
Our new chapter has begun... follow our journey over at our account “
SPIKE— Spike passed on to the rainbow bridge on Feb 13th 2023. His memory and story live on.
"What to say about this handsome little dude.
I don't have a "how he has helped me" story, just because Spike has always been a bit off a challenge. And it's more of a story how I try to help him story.
He is not a fan of the little ones running around running the household .
Maybe its because he was 8 months old when he joined our family and because of that he was the odd duck out? And just didn't have the bond with the little ones, as Delaja had.
But he always had his sister, which he depended on alot. He only wanted cuddles from her, always layed down next or on top of her. They rough played all the time.. She used to wash his face and ears daily.. and he loved everything about it.
Since she has been gone, he has lost a part of himself.. I've tried to "replace" her, but it's just isn't doing it for him.
But he loves his walkies, snackies and most of all his nappies and I always have to be in the same room as him, or he just panics and cries.
But we are in this grief together and I will never give up on him.
It is because of him that even on my bad days, I get up, and go out, because that's his happy time. And to see him happy, makes my heart smile. I'd do anything to see him get over this heartache of missing his sister.
He is gonna be 12 years young this August..
I hope he finds his peace with "just us" one day and has many more happy and healthy years with us.
Together we grow, learn and love.”

Bella
“My world was an Oyster and I found my pearl.
When corona hit, I started working from home. It was amazing at first, but slowly it became monotonous. Things I love became things "I have to do ". We started talking about getting a dog and my dream girl was a golden. We found the most beautiful golden and brought her home.
The first night was so exciting and in the morning we wake up to poop on my cats beds. Puppyhood felt impossible and honestly led me to feel depressed. It felt like Bella would never be potty trained. We threw out so many beds, carpets, and couches I’ve lost count. puppy class was no help to us, nothing helped, no advice worked. I was losing track of my life. I was so frustrated, I put on weight, and we doubted our decision every day for three months. To this day puppyhood is a black mess in my mind.
One day Bella pooped outside when I took her out and it was the first glimmer of hope. I thought maybe we will be the happy family I had imagined. Slowly we saw better days together and now she is my best friend and a literal 4 legged version of me. With ever fur she sheds she shares happiness and joy. She is my sunshine and the bond we have created is unexplainable. There are so many reasons to be happy and she is mine . We live for the moments thats impossible to put into words. In this uncertain world even if everything fails and falls to pieces I have my happiness inside— a golden heart. she reminds me to be teenager again and live a carefree life and throw happiness around like confetti. The thing that kept me going was that Bella never gave up on me. She always stood by my side and never let me be alone. This will always be my motivation to move forward and she will alway me my rock.”

Louie & Alfie
“ I came into my Mom’s life right when she needed me most. She had recently said goodbye to her 15yr old dog, and then suddenly lost her own Dad who had just turned 60. I was her light in this time of grief. I lick her face when she cries and I sit next to her and keep her company when she feels down.
I am her constant reminder to smile and enjoy the little moments life has to offer. Even if that “little moment” involves me chewing some of her home decor 😈
She often catches herself smiling, as she watches my cute little bum wiggle during our daily walks. I have quite a sassy little personality, and together we make quite the pair!”

“Lykke has helped with my mental health by making me being more active and outside. She encourages me to go on walks( even though I really don’t want to), go on hikes and generally keeping me in active. Because of my heart condition I don’t work anymore, and it really has helped me getting a dog, to be more active in the everyday life and she is someone I can share my adventures with, really an adventure buddy. She is my best friend and a cuddle bear. Now we go on walk everyday, either nearby us or we travel to beautiful destinations. Lykke loves being outside and thats helped me a lot too🌸”

Mika & Kimchi
MIKA
Mika is an 11 y.o shiba inu lady. She was adopted by her hoomum and hoodad in 2017 in Hong Kong where they were living. Here is their story from Mika’s mom’s perspective:
“I was never a crazy dog lover until I got Mika. Life had been going towards a dead end until Mika became the reason I woke up every day. She is the reason I smile, she is the reason I get up and go out, she is the reason I love to relax at home too. I kiss and hug her soooo many times a day. Even though she doesn’t always reciprocate, she still makes me smile. After a long stressful day at work, I always look forward to going home because there is a furry butt welcoming me, and to brighten up my evening. She really is my therapy dog!
Life has been really challenging since we moved to Amsterdam especially during the pandemic. I also struggle with social anxiety and depression which makes it difficult to connect with others. Mika helps me so much to meet new people and interact with others in general. I really wouldn’t know what I’d do without her.
Mika has also improved the relationship between my partner. We hardly argue because our lives revolve around the love we have for Mika.
I don’t know how many years left she has with me, she’s 11 now…so I’m trying to enjoy every minute with her as I can, as if every day with her is the last ❤️ “
KIMCHI
“We saw a photo of a shiba up for adoption on Facebook and we had to go and visit, the rest was history! Here is Kimchi, almost 2 years old. He was miraculously rescued from a kill shelter in Korea and we found him in a shelter in Germany. He’s such a goofball, playful and cheeky. He came with a big package, full of behaviour problems and physical. It can be draining sometimes but it has definitely taught us to persevere and to have a lot of patience….and remind ourselves how Mika has become the perfect dog that we think she is and Kimchi could one day be the same.”

Minnie
Minnie and I share a lot of memories together and I hope there will be so much more!
Most of the days with Minnie were fun and full of love, but I can remember our hard times.
First of all, Minnie had health issues. The worst thing was that she had a tumor and that was very very hard for me. She had only few more months to live. I was devastated… I managed to find a good vet and he did a surgery. He saved her life. That hard period only connected us. There were so many happy tears when she was recovering and that gave me a new purpose in life - to give her the best life I can. Minnie knew I've done something to help her and she is paying back with love every day. She is my true hero, because she won that health battle!
On the other side, there was a period when I had a bad job and was so stressed and dissatisfied. Minnie was always with me. We created our little world where I could talk everything to her and it seemed like she understood all. She would cuddle with me, give me kisses or just napp. She gave me peace. Cuddling with her took all of stress away.
These years were anything but perfect. Some days I was so stressed, sad and I didn't want to get up and go to work. But in those moments, there always was one wet nose beside me. She didn't want attention, she didn't want to play or brang me toys, she just wanted to let me know that she is there. I could see compassion and understanding in her eyes…. She has never judged me.
We passed all of it together. Now I have good job and I am trully happy. On the other side, Minnie is one healthy and happy dog. I was there for her and she was there for me. Now I never feel alone. I am much more caring because of her and tend to help stray
dogs as much as I can.

Oblak
“Oblak is a bichon frisé from Novi Sad, Serbia! We got him completely unexpectedly and with no experience with owning a dog before, but it was the best thing that has happened to us.
At that point in our lives, we were both struggling with our mental health due to very stressful studies, we both lost someone dear in the family and had a traumatic experience. Oblak came to us at the perfect time and ever since then he’s been an emotional support pup for two medical students!
It was hard in the beginning adjusting to taking care of another being, when I sometimes didn’t have motivation to even care about myself. There were many sleepless nights, “Why did we get a dog” thoughts and “How to teach my puppy this and that” google searches, but we quickly realized we wouldn’t have it any other way.
With his little fluffy tail, most adorable eyes and thousands of kisses daily, Oblak could make every single day the happiest one! He’s always there to snuggle up when we’re studying and taking him on walks and play dates has been the highlight of our day. Seeing him happy makes us even happier! He motivates us to get out of bed when we don’t feel like it, brings us his toys when we feel down, and who could ever be sad when he wags his little tail?
We couldn’t have asked for a better pup and we’re doing everything we can to make his life as exciting as he made ours! We had no idea you coud love a pet as much as we do, and we’re cherishing every moment with him.☁️
Oblak’s wearing his harness set in design “Paws in the Clouds”. We chose it not only because it’s beautiful, but because the meaning behind it is to love yourself the way your dog loves you! We’re often too hard on ourselves and this is something we should be reminded of daily.”

Guido
"Guido is a tricolour bassethound and we live in Italy, he's so sweet but also so stubborn.. He came into my life all of a sudden, I saw his picture on the breeding page on facebook and I immediately fell in love with him. After just a few days he was at home with me. He is my first dog, it wasn't easy at the beginning but we slowly got to know each other and established a very good relationship within a short time, now we understand each other with just a look.
I am so grateful to have him in my life, without him it would be much harder to face the difficult days!
He is always by my side, both when I am happy and when I am sad and I couldn't ask for anything better 🩵

Waldo
“Waldo came into my life in 2019. I had been wanting a dog of my own for many years, but the circumstances were never quite right. That finally changed when I moved to South Orange County in 2019. I went to the local animal shelter one morning “just to look”, and Waldo was literally the first dog I met. His sweet disposition melted my heart. I already had lunch plans with friends that day, so I told the shelter that I would think about it, and come back later that afternoon. To which they emphatically replied, “Dogs like this don’t last! If you like him, take him now, because he won’t be here when you come back.” So I texted my friends to tell them I’d be late, and I would be bringing a date! Rescuing a dog that had been in and out of several homes wasn’t easy at first. I couldn’t understand why anyone would give him up until he started tearing up my carpet, and chewing my furniture and baseboards. He pushed me to my breaking point, but I couldn’t bear to give up on him. So I hired a local dog trainer, who was so patient, and used positive reinforcement to help me break some of his bad habits. She also taught me a great deal about what he needed from me, and how to improve my communication with him. Thanks to her, Waldo’s behavior was completely transformed, and now I can’t imagine my life without him. He’s like a son to me, and we do almost everything together. Now we share amazing adventures, and enjoy exploring together, whether it’s in our community, or someplace further away, like Northern California, the Pacific Northwest, or even the Grand Canyon. He even puts up with my crazy ideas for his Instagram pictures! Waldo is truly my shadow, and I’m so grateful to have the honor of being his mom!” -Jackie, Waldo’s mom

Leo
It started in 2020, august 10th I had to suddenly say goodbye to my first ever furry friend of almost 8 years, a bunny named Tulla. We were basically inseparable and I’m still grateful for the fact I was so close and knew her so well, because the morning of the 10th I noticed she wasn’t breathing properly. A bunny, being a prey-animal doesn’t show pain or discomfort easily to not show they’re weak, so Im very happy I noticed the slight breathing pattern on her chest was different than usual. So I called the vet and they told me to bring her in, they took her in for a check and after a little they came back they told me that she had fluid around her lungs and heart, it was too close to the heart for anything to be done. “The most humane thing would be to put her down”. That sentence broke me so much… For almost 8 years she had been helping me go through bullying and anxiety attacks, panic attacks, lonely times and just days where everything was grey and there was no hope left in me. I’ve struggled with these things for years and losing a safety like her was so crushing. I went into 10 days of almost total isolation where I stayed in my room, only came out of it for food or to go to work. I slowly but surely realized that, there was no way I could be without a furry friend after her, but another bunny would be too soon. That’s when a long search through litters made me find little Leo “Dark Blue Collar has a bobtail birth defect”. Only one in his litter with a short tail, the odd one out, PERFECT for an owner that’s also the odd one out And he’s helped me more than I’d ever think he would, he’s been trained to help me out during anxiety attacks or just consoling me through thought days. He’s the bestest of friends I could ever ask for and I’m just so grateful to him Enough of the sob story but, he’s a good boy and I wanted all of you to know that

Theodor
During the pandemic, despite the three doses of vaccine, mandatory in Italy because I am a teacher, I contracted a strong form of Covid. I was really sick, I had severe pain and I couldn't breathe. My whole life felt like it was escaping me, my thoughts were sad and dark, I was alone, isolated from the world and I was scared for my family. I often thought I couldn't make it, fear didn't let me think and be clear. So to get my head away from everything and recover I made a list of everything that I hadn't yet managed to do and that I absolutely wanted to do before I died. At the top of the list was "Being able to walk alone without being terrified of meeting a dog."
Absurd right? Even today I can hardly believe it and yet it was like this, I lived with this phobia for 50 years And so the next day I got in touch with a cattery and made an appointment as soon as I tested negative And then nothing was love at first sight, he chose me unaware of everything and I ....... and since then I have been cured, cured of my stupid fears

Buddy
“Hi, I’m Hanna from the account @bergspitz.buddy. I’m 19 years old and live in South Tyrol with my Pomeranian, Buddy. In this post, I want to talk about something that was unclear to me for a long time. Suicidal thoughts affect far more people than one might think, and sometimes, individuals aren’t even aware of it because it happens subconsciously. During the pandemic, I slipped into depression. Since going out wasn’t allowed, I spent most of my time at home, just lying around, being on social media, and started comparing myself to others. Of course, on Instagram, people only show their good sides, but I wasn’t aware of that at the time. I started becoming unhappy with my own life.
I increasingly began to see only the negative aspects of my life and considered my life not worth living. I blamed myself for my boring, miserable life to the point where I even began to self-harm. I burned myself. The only hours of the day when I didn’t think about hurting myself were the hours with my donkey, Elli. She gave me so much strength and the feeling of being needed. She was the reason why I decided not to end my life. Earlier this year, a little puppy joined us, who just turned 1 year old earlier this week. He was always there, immediately sensing when I wasn’t doing well and keeping me from harming myself. Since Buddy joined us, I haven’t hurt myself anymore.
Even when Elli (the donkey) passed away nearly 2 months ago, he gave me the most strength and forced me to keep going. My animals literally saved my life. Without them, I wouldn’t be here today.
Right now, I’m in my first year of studying psychology. After getting my Bachelor’s degree, I want to pursue a Master’s degree in clinical psychology and eventually become a psychotherapist. I want to save lives and raise awareness about these issues because it could affect anyone. Take care of yourselves!”

Skye
I'm Rebecca, soon turning 21. With my 10month old pup Skye. Though I haven't discussed it much, I've briefly mentioned about my struggle on Instagram a few months back.
Over the years, therapy has significantly improved my Social Anxiety. Getting Skye was a game-changer, boosting my confidence and reducing my dependence on others.
From 16 to 18, my anxiety led me to drop out of school three times. Now, I'm attempting it one last time in a field I'm passionate about, securing my job, which involves working with dogs and with minimal social interactions. Skye will be with me on this new journey.
During anxiety attacks, I prefer calming myself down alone.
To cope and find comfort, I turn to music, gaming, art, nighttime dog walks, and cherished alone time.
It's amazing how Skye, a dog I have 100% responsibility for, positively impacted my mental health, as noticed by my family.
