About Zeus

Zeus, my medium-to-large sized pittie mix.

When did you lose Zeus?

June 23, 2026

At which stage of pet loss grief do you feel you are currently at?

I'm going through most of the stages at once- denial, anger, bargaining, depression- haven't gotten to acceptance quite yet- that one may take awhile...

Craig and Zeus' Story so far

Our favorite activity was walks around the block- he had a slight hip displacement and couldn't walk too far at a time, but he absolutely LOVED wearing his special harness with "ZEUS" in block white lettering against a purple background.

We would also stop for cheeseburgers on the way home from every visit to the vet or groomer- he hated getting in the car on the way TO the vet/groomer, but couldn't jump in the car fast enough on the ride home, because he knew he was getting his all-time FAVORITE snack! :)
