After your dog pass away what can one do with the body?

The Ladron animal clinic has a crematorium for animals.

Memo buried one of my dogs at a farm and I buried my other dog at home and created a new garden to remember her.

Lovely thought, Ann. I know how you miss her!

Ladron wanted $1800p when we lost ours and Pepe did it for $550p cremation that is.

I have always cremated my own pets in my fireplace and then scattered the ashes NOB. Have not had to deal with this since arriving here.

I am sorry but I will have nightmares about this thought tonight.

[camillenparadise]

That's two of us.....

[Luke]

Make that 3 of us. Also, I am not completely sure about this but I think that maybe the Ladron's cost is more because they will do one animal at a time so that you are only getting your pets remains, if that is important to you.

I'd like to hear more about DIY pet cremation. I assume this is for a small pet?

[gogirl]

Make it 4 of us! Just the thought of stuffing my beloved pet be it small, medium or large into the fireplace is just creepy. Just my opinion.

Please please please - respond to this by PM. No disrespect to anyone, but clearly a lot of us are uncomfortable with this discussion. Thanks.

When I had to have Sonja euthanized on 26 December of last year, Ladron's charged $1,800 (I think or was it $1,200?), which included a beautiful ceramic urn. They do them individually so the urn only contains Sonja's ashes and is not mixed with any other animal.

I also would rather have my pet cremated individually and not mixed with who knows what. Just my feelings. Sometimes you do have to pay more to get it done right.

Thank you Ray S. I have saved this information for when it's necessary.
since our Petey is a 90 lb yellow Lab - this is not a small problem for an old
lady with no yard space.

Dr Pepe has a "ranch" and he buries animals there. He did that
for our dog.
