A Dog’s Prayer
Treat me kindly, my beloved master, for no heart in all the world is more grateful for kindness than the
loving heart of me.
Do not break my spirit with a stick, for though I should lick your hand between the blows, your patience
and understanding will more quickly teach me the things you would have me do.
Speak to me often, for your voice is the world’s sweetest music, as you must know by the fierce wagging of
my tail when your footstep falls upon my waiting ear.
When it is cold and wet, please take me inside… for I am now a domesticated animal, no longer used to
bitter elements… and I ask no greater glory than the privilege of sitting at your feet beside the hearth…
though had you no home, I would rather follow you through ice and snow than rest upon the softest pillow
in the warmest home in all the land… for you are my god… and I am your devoted worshiper.
Keep my pan filled with fresh water, for although I should not reproach you were it dry, I cannot tell you
when I suffer thirst. Feed me clean food, that I may stay well, to romp and play and do your bidding, to
walk by your side, and stand ready, willing and able to protect you with my life, should your life be in
danger.
And, beloved master, should the Great Master see fit to deprive me of my health or sight, do not turn me
away from you. Rather hold me gently in your arms as skilled hands grant me the merciful boon of eternal
rest…and I will leave you knowing with the last breath I drew, my fate was ever safest in your hands.

Prayers and Positive Words for When Pets Go Through a Hard Time

My Backstory

About six months ago, I went through a horrible scare. My cat was struggling to pee. I took him to the emergency veterinarian, and he was treated overnight to help him relax. Hours later, I went home with my cat, and as soon as I got home, he was doing the same thing—squatting in random parts of the house and struggling to pee.

It was scary for me to watch. I knew he was going to need more care; however, my veterinarian’s instructions were to wait a few hours to see if his condition would improve and see if he was just getting used to the drugs and the anxiety of going to the vet.

I was back at the emergency vet in about five hours. My cat hadn’t improved. He wasn’t eating.

After several trips to my regular veterinarian and the emergency veterinarian, and two rounds of a catheter, it was discovered that he had tiny stones that were blocking him. He needed surgery. I was overwhelmed by the cost of the treatment and scared that my cat wasn’t going to survive.

I’m happy to say my cat is still alive thanks to the attentive care he received. One of the things that helped me calm down was reading prayers online about pets. I wasn’t sure how things were going to end, but praying comforted me. It gave me the ability to trust rather than fret. I had to accept the chaotic situation.

I want to give back by offering hope to those who might be going through similar awful situations. I hope you can find prayers or positive words here to let you know you’re not alone. Others have been in the same situation. You can adjust the prayers as needed.

Each paragraph is a different prayer you can repeat. I found it helpful to play soothing music off YouTube and to repeat prayers I found online because I had a hard time coming up with words of my own. Strength was failing me after multiple trips to the vet at odd hours of the night and struggling because I was losing sleep.

I hope the prayers below help you to find some peace and hope. Please remember, no prayer guarantees a particular outcome.
