He continued: “So for all of you who are missing a dog in your life that you loved dearly and lost, then my heart goes out to you.”
‘I’m sorry if this video makes you cry. You probably will,” she continued. “But yeah, let me know how you feel and remember we’re in this together.”
Then, in a lengthy caption, she wrote: “Losing a beloved animal friend can be very difficult. Like any family member, loss can never truly be overcome, but can instead be replaced with gratitude for having been given the great privilege of having your love and your light in his life.”
‘Betty was the dog of my heart and I still think about her every day. Some will say she was “just a dog,” but those of us who appreciate the joys of canine companions (or all animals) know they will always hold a special place in our hearts.”
Before adding: ‘I hope you all watch and subscribe to RescueVet on YouTube and I apologize if Betty’s story (viewable since Wednesday) leaves you crying like it did me. Much love and happy Easter, Dr. Sx’.
Followers rushed to the comments section to wish Scott well while also sharing memories of their own four-legged friends.
Writing: ‘Never just a dog, unless you have one, you will never understand the joy and unconditional love they bring’: ‘Bless you, she is still with you and always will be, but it is so hard to let them go. Sending love xx’: ‘No amount of time can erase the love and memory of a beloved pet, last year I lost 3 and it never seems to get easier.’
Last year, Scott was forced to travel to war-torn Ukraine after seeing heartbreaking photographs of pets abandoned after people fled their homes in fear.

He left his wife Zoe, 45, and their four children at home, despite their protests, and flew to Eastern Europe in a bid to rescue animals that had been injured when bombs fell on the country’s cities. .
Partnering with charity Breaking The Chains, which is made up of ex-servicemen, Scott aims to bring abandoned and sick dogs back to the UK to rehome, with some now paraplegic and reliant on wheels to get around.
He said Sun: ‘Everyone said I was absolutely crazy to go to Ukraine, because it’s an active war zone, but I felt obligated.
‘I have been an animal lover all my life. Animals helped me when I was a child, struggling socially.
‘They never judged and are always there to give that unconditional love. Animals are sentient beings. They have emotions, they have feelings, they feel fear.
“And they are caught in this war and they also suffer alongside the Ukrainian people.”
