Fenix Lumiere 'Happy Dog'

09/18/2026

If you still feel guilty about your soulmate animal’s passing — even though part of you KNOWS you did nothing wrong — this is for you.

And even if you did make a human mistake, this is for you too. ❤️

Because guilt after losing an animal doesn’t run on logic.

You can have ten people tell you:

“You did everything you could.”
“They knew how much you loved them.”
“You gave them an incredible life.”

And you can KNOW they’re right…

while somewhere deeper inside, your body is still screaming:

I failed them.

And that’s where guilt can become something even more painful:

Shame.

Guilt says: I did something wrong.

Shame says: There’s something wrong with me.

I should have known.
I should have done more.
I should have noticed sooner.
I made the wrong decision.
I failed the one being I loved more than anything.

And that shame can be incredibly isolating.

Because we would never look at someone who gave absolutely everything they had to something and call them a failure.

And yet that’s exactly what so many of us do to ourselves after losing our animals.

We gave them our ALL.

We rearranged our lives for them.
We worried about them.
We protected them.
We researched.
We made impossible decisions.
We stayed up at night.
We loved them with everything we had.

And yes, sometimes we made mistakes.

Because we are human.

We were never designed to love perfectly.

Maybe part of being human is making mistakes so that we can finally learn what compassion and forgiveness actually mean.

But when our soulmate animal dies, somehow all of that humanity can disappear.

And instead of remembering a lifetime of love, our mind finds one moment, one decision, one thing we wish we had done differently…

and puts our entire relationship on trial.

That is not healing.

And you probably won’t think your way out of it.

Because guilt and shame aren’t simply asking to be reasoned with.

They’re asking to be felt, understood, held with compassion, and finally released.

That’s a completely different process.

This Saturday, I’m holding a free 90-minute live gathering devoted to exactly this:

Why guilt and shame can become so consuming after pet loss, why they can stay with us even when we logically know we did everything we could, and how we can begin to actually release them from the body instead of endlessly trying to argue with them in our minds.

Comment GUILT to join us. It’s free.

There’ll be live Q&A, too. ❤️

And when you register, you’ll receive The Blue Healer book free — whether you join us live or simply watch the recording afterward.

Saturday · 9 AM PT · Free

If guilt has had a grip on your heart since your baby died…maybe it’s time to stop putting yourself on trial.

Maybe it’s time to let their love back in. ❤️🐾

📷 : me and Fenix after Ellie passed… (Ellie was my daughter that passed away when she was only 6 months old. We had to let her go because she was in pain and fear with multiple declining brain conditions)

Fenix was so sad (even though he was telling me often he didn’t want her to stay — he likes being a one child family) and words can’t express how much pain I was in. I just wanted to stay in bed and be with Fenix all day.

Hope to see you Saturday xoxox.
Love Fenix’ mum Dr Zoë Lumiere 👩‍🦰

Fenix is so happy because he was once abandoned at Carson Animal Shelter but rescued by our favorite rescue organization, 💙

He and his sister Nube were almost euthanized. They were trembling, couldn’t stand, and were so unwell that distemper or parvo was feared. Their survival odds were low.

But swooped in and saved their lives. The community donated, prayed, and showed up for them. And somehow… they rallied.

Two months of intensive care and thousands of dollars later, Fenix and Nube were ready for adoption. And in a beautiful twist of fate, they were adopted by two couples who are friends.

So now it’s more than puppy playdates. When one family travels, the other steps in. Siblings reunited. Always together.

Love saves lives 🐾✨

Adopt… Don’t shop 🛟 🐶

We Love You 🙌 ❤️

Please don't get upset with us. 🥺🐾

Me and my mum just love animals so much that sometimes we can't help but be their voices.

Because most animals aren't like me.

They don't have millions of friends watching out for them.

They don't have a family obsessed with them.

They don't have a warm bed, a safe home, or a mum who tells them they're perfect approximately 700 times a day.

And before you ask…

Yes. Me and Mum are vegan. 🌱

We try our very best not to pay for animals to be harmed or exploited.

BUT WAIT.

Please don't leave.

You absolutely do NOT have to be vegan to care about what I'm about to tell you.

Actually, that's why I'm telling you.

Because there is something happening to millions and millions of baby chicks that most people don't even know about.

And there is finally a way we can help change it.

Okay. First I have to tell you the disturbing part. 😢

When chicks are born into the egg industry, the females can grow up to lay eggs.

But the males can't.

So male chicks have historically been killed shortly after hatching simply because they can't lay eggs.

I'm not going to describe how they're killed here. It's awful, and you can read about it at the link if you choose to.

But now for the REALLY GOOD NEWS. ❤️❤️❤️

WE HAVE A BETTER WAY.

It's called in-ovo s*xing.

This technology can determine the s*x of a developing chick while it's still inside the egg.

That means the male eggs can be identified before those chicks ever hatch — instead of allowing a tiny baby chick to hatch only to be killed because he's a boy.

And this isn't some imaginary technology we're hoping will exist someday.

IT EXISTS.

It's already being used.

And now we need egg companies to know that people actually want them to use it.

That's where YOU come in. 🐣❤️

Will you give me 20 seconds?

There's a petition in the comments.

You can read everything if you want to learn more, or simply go to the Take Action button, fill in a few little boxes, and add your name.

That's it.

You don't have to become vegan today.

You don't have to agree with Mum and me about everything.

You don't have to change your entire life.

We're just asking you to stand beside us on this one thing and say:

If there's a way to prevent this suffering, let's use it.

Please comment DONE after you sign so I can give you a virtual Fenix kiss. 😘🐾

And thank you for using your voice for some very tiny friends who don't have one.

Love,
Fenix 🐾❤️🐣
and mum Dr Zoë Lumiere
and my friends Mercy For Animals 🫶

This is disturbing. But my mum asked that I let you all know. 😬

As you can see from this photo, she has absolutely no boundaries when it comes to meeting another dog.

I’m not the jealous type. I have millions of you who love me. I’m secure. I’m fine. I’ve done the work.

But apparently, if you bring your dog anywhere near my mum, there are a few things you should be prepared for:

She might say hi to you.
She will ABSOLUTELY say hi to your dog.
She will immediately start speaking in a bizarre voice she has specifically selected for your dog.

Tiny dog? High-pitched squealing.

Big dog? Weirdly deep voice.

Medium dog? Could go either way.

Please understand: she genuinely believes your dog requires its own dialect.

She will try not to ignore you completely.

No promises.

She only has so much attention available, and approximately 97% of it has already been allocated to your pet.

At some point, she will ask your dog:

“Do you want to come home with us?”

Please don’t panic.

She has no actual intention of stealing your beloved family member.

Apparently she just feels it would be rude not to offer.

If your dog has a disability, is a rescue, is elderly, looks slightly misunderstood, or has one wonky ear…

Cancel the rest of your day.

You’re not going anywhere.

She may kiss your dog.

She may hug your dog.

She may tell your dog how beautiful they are.

She may begin discussing their emotional life with them.

Again, you do not need to participate.

And finally, if at any point during this interaction you hear my mum say:

“I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.”

Please don’t make it weird.

She’s talking to your dog. 🐾🥰

Anyway, this has been a public service announcement from a dog whose mother has absolutely no chill around dogs.

If you see us out, you have been warned.

Fenix gets 3 a day. He can’t prance for long. So 3 times a day or more… this is our life.



FYI — Fenix has a neurological disorder called Cerebellar Hypoplasia which affects his coordination and balance. He’s not in any pain, has full life expectancy and is obvs 🙄 living his best life.
