What do you all think about cremating a dog?

A general forum for the discussion of hunting with beagles, guns, clothing and other equipment and just talking dawgs! (Tall tales on hunting allowed, but remember, first liar doesn't stand a chance)

What do you all think about cremating a dog?

Post by WSRandy »

First I hope you all had a good Christmas!

Now with that said, any of you ever had a dog cremated? I have always been told if you bury a dog new life will grow from that spot, any truth in this? Kinda like where the red fern grows ;)

Thanks and see you all,
Randy

Randy come on now if you would just do what I said to do you should do it would make him feel much better. Melissa said that its possible her aunt had it done to a dog. But still should try the home remedy i had said.

Randy,
I have 7 or 8 urns of friends long gone on my bookshelf. It is a personal decision with no right or wrong answer.

Danny......... :lol:

Doc.......you made me feel better! I thought I was being a sensitive geek for a bit, glad to know someone with the hound sense and knowledge of animals like you thinks like me sometimes, I was starting to think I wasnt cut out for this ;)

I am glad I didnt decide to get into raising cattle instead of beagles.......I would have had 20 year old cattle running my farm, lol.

Thanks and see you all,
Randy

Lots of people have urns.

I spread the ashes in favorite running grounds instead.
