There are new reading recs by yours truly up today on The Shepherd! This list is for all you parents and grandparents and aunts and uncles and caregivers who need to have hard conversations with little ones about pets dying. I was inspired to pitch a list of my own after reading my friend Tove Danovich’s list of books about animals that help us understand ourselves better.

If you haven’t checked it out before, The Shepherd is a really cool website to find books to read! Authors recommend lists of their favorite based on different themes, and you can sort bookshelves based on topics such as “dog books” or “books about death.” Check it out!

That golden retriever walking on the sidewalk.
That shaggy black dog standing on the sidewalk.
That golden lab at the soccer field.
That old black lab at the playground.
That very old poodle at the playground.
That Great Dane hanging out at that bar.
That Miniature Pinscher Chihuahua mix at that party.
That ancient Basset Hound sitting in a yard.
That Pit Bull mix sitting in that parked car.
That Boston Terrier I decided should be named Ralph.
