Putting the poor pupper to rest

I had my dog cremated and the vet had an option to pay $100 more, and someone from the local wood working high school team designed and builds the cremation box. I did that and now she’s in a beautiful cremation box that’s well made and local. I think it’s a good way to honor my dog, I miss her everyday

I've had one cremated and I've been meaning to take some of the ashes and make a glass sculpture for something permanent, and then go release her ashes out somewhere. Others have had backyard.

There are several companies that will take ashes and make jewelry, paper weights, ornaments, sun catchers, etc.

You can get them cremated but I've always gone for the "ask someone with a car to drive me out into nowhere and pick any ol spot that isn't too close to water". Depending on timing this sometimes requires me to wrap them up and pop them in the freezer for a couple days which isn't stellar feeling but gets the job done

For a fee you can work with your vet, or sometimes even county/city programs, to cremate your pet after they die.
