"Dogs do understand death. It’s always important to let them meet the departed person if they were very close. That final moment helps them realize and slowly accept that their beloved human will never return. Today, singer Zubin Garg’s family did something so compassionate and touching  they made sure his beloved pets met him before his body was taken for the final rites. Such gestures speak volumes about love, loyalty, and respect for the bond between humans and their dogs."
