I had calls when I was in the business. I would NEVER do that. You cannot recreate the animals persona etc.... Maybe the wrong word, but all it will be is a stuffed canine. Not your old pet. No way I would do that.

I've seen a few too unfortunately and none were done very well either.

I have had GSP's that I loved more than most people. No way I would disgrace them in that manner.

I hear they mount pets and farm animals all the time down South. Cousins and siblings too.

Creepy. Would you do that with your mom or dad?

We have planted a tree over their grave on the last two...

Red Dogwood over Cricket (she was a red dog).

Marsh grass over Judge (our Chessie that was "dead grass" color).

A persimmon over one of Laura's favorite cats...

That kinda thing.


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Hah!

Skin ‘em out and hang that pretty Golden’s hide up on the wall. Maybe a nice throw for the couch.

😂

Buddy in high school had 3 past family dogs hides mounted to the wall in their home. Very strange family.

Cool picture of the rock, tikka. That is a neat formation.

Knew one taxidermist who refused to mount deceased pets.
Knew another one who welcomed the business. 😖

I'm 73 years old. I've lost a LOT of very dear, beloved pets.
As much as I loved them and missed them, I DO NOT want to step in the house and have "Rover" tug at my heart strings....AGAIN! One heartbreak is enough!

....nor would I want to have my parents or grandparents "mounted"!

Several years ago I hunted with a guy that did pet taxidermy as his main job, and he had lots of business.


Laws aren't preventative measures. In other words, more laws won't prevent gun crime from happening.

Momma has two cats and a pet door. They come and go as they please. I often threaten to turn the two of them into mittens. When she sees them bring a big fat vole in from outside, she almost agrees.

Is that the same?
