Grieving Stray Dogs Show Up at an Animal Lover’s Funeral (PHOTOS)
It can be easy to forget the details of a conversation you had with a person or what they were wearing, but you never forget the way they made you feel. Especially if that person was exceptionally kind, compassionate or sympathetic at a time when you really needed it. And this can be applied to humans and animals alike.
Margarita Suarez of Merida, Yucatan, Mexico, was an animal lover through and through. Whenever a stray dog or cat showed up at her door, Suarez would welcome them with scraps of food, a drink of water and a kind smile. This was a daily routine that she followed, much to the gratitude of these stray animals. Suarez also had a habit of bringing a bag of food with her when she ran errands, just in case she found an animal in need.
Now that’s a true animal lover.
Sadly, Suarez passed away recently, but the impact of her kindness was not quickly forgotten. On the day of Suarez’s funeral, a procession of dogs appeared out of nowhere.
At first, family members assumed the dogs belonged to the funeral home owners.
But it quickly became clear that the dogs were there to pay their respects.
Once Suarez’s family members realized what was happening, they welcomed the dogs. The dogs stayed until three in the morning, a true showing of their gratitude for her kindness.
What a beautiful showing for such a wonderful soul. Rest in peace Margarita.

What a load of crap………..some people will believe anything. "the dogs were there to pay their respects." …………….give me a break. I wonder who set this up.
You are such an A–hole . Your probably an abuser to animals. My dog rode in the ambulance to the hospital with me as he would not let the paramedics touch me so once I got into the er my husband took him home. He protected and loved me and now he is gone after 9rs. This is not a set up as dogs and other animals feel it when someone who has loved them is gone. Spell GOD backwards. You would probably be lucky to have a dog pee on your grave. Hope you do not own any animals.
Yeah, You are an ASSHOLE. Dogs will pee on your grave including birds, cats, rats only if you keep this kind of stupid mentality. Next time, don\’t post a crappy comment, got it? Be good, be kind. Thank you.
This is why I love all animals, all nature, why I am a pantheist. They are smarter, kinder and wiser than us. Who among us turns the other cheek when someone strikes them, kicks them, starves them.
Thank You Bea! I had to look the word "pantheist" up as I\’ve never heard or seen of it before. It describes EXACTLY what my soul believes to be true; I just never could put it in a one-word description. I plan on using it & hope others will wonder what it means & do the same. ~Namaste~ <3
This is why I love Dogs and all Animals!!!! That is why I am an Animal Advocate!!!! We must protect them!!!!
