[quote=Anonymous]Personally, I would just take a picture of the dog at the new house with it's new owners. If/when your child asks, say "Doggie is living with Beth and Jim now. Here is a picture." Maybe even stick it on your refrigerator. Just acknowledge their feelings like you would if they were missing a family member you haven't seen for a while. "Oh, you miss doggie. I miss doggie, too. Doggie is playing with Beth and Jim." As long as you are calm and not sad about it, your child will work through their feelings. [/quote]
