Making A Memory With Custom Dog Urns

By Ann Ross


Losing a pet is something you may think you will never get over. In time, you will. However, there are some things that help that happen faster. Anything that helps keep their memory alive helps. One of these thing is one of the custom dog urns. The many styles and prices that are available make it easy to find something that will work for you.

Any number of materials are used to make these urns. One is a folded silk box that is very elegant. Cardboard that has been printed with a poem, a picture of your pet, or any such thing makes a lovely box and is very inexpensive if finances are a problem. Wood is also reasonable, and makes a very beautiful box with the proper finishing. Different woods give a different look, but about all of them are reasonable. Also available are the many appropriate metals, such as bronze and pewter. About any metal that is used for caskets can be used for these containers as well.

These containers are made in almost every geometric shape, leaving solid surfaces on which to put pictures and sentiments of your choice. Some even can be decorated with pictures using a picture of your pet as a pattern. They can be done in charcoal, colored pencil, or other mediums. If you don't have a picture of your dog, they can use your directions and their knowledge of the breed's looks to make a good likeness.

Sometimes these are made much as a sculpture of your pet. The shape of your dog, or the breed if you don't have a picture of yours, is sculpted to sit on top of a base. Sometimes, generic shapes that mean something to you in reference to your pet may be used You can often choose what you want, or from a selection.

These are good if you were too upset when the pet died to save the ashes. One should not feel bad if they did not save some of the ashes because the degree of distress often make it difficult to make decisions or think straight about things. In that case, you can write a memorial letter and put in the regular urn if desired, or just have the urn made as a statue without an opening and keep it in memory.

Costs vary for these urns, from an extremely low budget to an extremely high one. Quality does vary with cost, but even the inexpensive ones are still nice. The finish may be much nicer for the more expensive ones, but even on the cheaper ones, they look nice.

You can order these urns from online sources as well. Of course, they are not totally customized, but they can be personalized with your dog's name and the date of death. You can even, on some of them, add engraved personal poems or memorial sentiments of your choice. You can also personalize it by adding a poem or memorial sentiment that you personally write and is something that will remind you of your time with your pet.

A cremation urn is not the only way to commemorate you beloved pet, but it is a good one. It gives you a pleasant memory of your dog, and also serves as a conversation piece. Talking about a loss is a good way to handle it, and the urn gives you a chance to talk to someone who sees it and starts a conversation. It gives you a chance to share pleasant memories of your pet.
