Home Forums Birds & Dogs Hunting Dogs Pet Cemetery

I've always had my dogs cremated over the years but when my old Pete dog died this spring I decided to build him a coffin and bury him proper. Not a plywood box but a nice pine coffin with brass hardware and lined with his favorite old mi-surp wool blanket.
Naturally I needed a place to bury him so I went out back and picked a nice little spot overlooking the river and built a place to lay him and the rest of em to rest.
The grass has come in and it's starting to look like something so while I was out tending it today I took a couple pix to share with the other dog men around here.







A neighbor and friend painted this old saw blade for me a couple of years ago.
He's not the best painter but the saw's cool and his intention was even cooler so I gave it a few coats of clear enamel to preserve the paint and hung it up. I think it's fitting.



There's two Labs (father and son), three GSP's and a Mountain Cur buried there now.
They weren't the best hunting dogs in the world but they were good enough.
