My neighbor is 94 years old and she lives alone. She had one daughter , that’s it, and she killed herself a long time ago. She had a dog that she owned for 16 years, it was like her baby. The dog just died last week ( well she had to put her down, it was suffering ) and she it beyond grief stricken. Anyway I had taken a photo of the dog ( cam out beautifully, up close shot..and blew it up and framed it for her. Well anyway she had her dog cremated and they gave her her ashes in a box, she said she wish they gave her a urn. Anyway I’d love to get her a small one but am on a tight budget, is there anywhere I can find such a thing? One for a dog? BTW- I know this sounds weird but this dog was her life…it was all she had.
Thank you all for your wonderful answers/links. Sorry about my spelling as well, guess I should of went back and proof read my question haha.
Most vet clinics offer them.
You also might find something resembling what they offer in a discount store.
It is your thoughtfulness that the woman will be grateful for.
It doesn’t sound weird at all.
Your shelter may have a referral for you too.
Urns? This is going to sound really weird but….?
Posted by admin | Under urns for dogs Monday Apr 19, 2010what size for a box style urn for my dog?
Posted by admin | Under urns for dogs Wednesday Apr 14, 2010My 110lb, 9 year old Rottie/GSD passed away and I am having him cremated. I originally ordered an Extra Large Cedar Box for him from the crematorium, but to save me $90 my highly skilled woodworking friend offered to make one for me so I canceled the order for the urn. I just need to know the dimensions he will need to build for an urn to fit that size of dog. Thanks!

Should Mike Vick build dog houses for the under privileged dogs?
Posted by admin | Under urns for dogs Monday Mar 29, 2010Vick says he will work construction 40 hours a week when released.
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/shutdown_corner/post/Michael-Vick-would-like-to-give-you-an-estimate-?urn=nfl,152547
all that tells me is he didn’t get in contact w/ reality while in jail. no one works construction for just 40 hours a week. ahhhhh
Who knows, Vick may turn himself around and become the Martha Stewart of dog house decorating and hostess etiquette. She, too, was "rehabilitated" on government expense.
Soon, a new monthly periodical – MICHAEL VICK LIVING
Features: Dog house seasonal decorating, food variety, food bowl settings, pooper-scooper designs – the possibilities are endless. Plus, a TV show where he displays and discusses all of his doggy crafts .
This idea has legs!
Dachshund (Dog Training)

Dachshund
“The dachshund is a short-legged, elongated dog breed of the hound family. The breed’s name is German and literally means “badger dog,” from (der) Dachs, badger, and (der) Hund, dog. While classified as a hound in English speaking countries, some consider the classification to be in error, speculating that it arose from the fact that the German word hund is similar to the English word hound. In fact many dachshunds, especially the wire haired sub type, exhibit behavior and appearance that is far more similar to the terrier group of dogs. The standard size was developed to scent, chase, and flush badgers and other burrow-dwelling animals, while the miniature was to hunt rabbits. Due to the long, narrow build, they are sometimes referred to as a wiener dog. Not withstanding the German origin of the dachshund’s name, within German-speaking countries the breed is known—both formally and informally—as the Dackel or Teckel.
History
———-
Some have theorized that the early roots of the dachshund go back to Ancient Egypt, where engravings were made featuring short-legged hunting dogs. Recent discoveries by the American University in Cairo of mummified dachshund-like dogs from ancient Egyptian burial urns may lend credibility to this theory. But in its modern incarnation, the dachshund is a creation of European breeders, and includes elements of German, French, and English hounds and terriers. Dachshunds have been kept by royal courts all over Europe, including that of Queen Victoria, who was particularly enamored of the breed. They were originally bred for hunting badgers by trailing them.
The first verifiable references to the dachshund, originally named the “Dachs Kriecher” (badger crawler) or “Dachs Krieger” (badger warrior), came from books written in the early 1700s. Prior to that, there exist references to “badger dogs” and “hole dogs”, but these likely refer to purposes rather than to specific breeds. The original German dachshunds were larger than the modern full-size variety, weighing between 30 and 40 lb. (14 to 18 kg), and originally came in straight-legged and crook-legged varieties (the modern dachshund is descended from the latter). Though the breed is famous for its use in exterminating badgers and badger-baiting, dachshunds were also commonly used for rabbit and fox hunting, for locating wounded deer, and in packs were known to hunt game as large as wild boar and as fierce as the wolverine.
Double-dapple dachshunds are prone to eye disease and therefore are rare. It is generally believed that the breed was introduced to the United States between 1879 and 1885
The flap-down ears and famous curved tail of the dachshund have deliberately been bred into the dog. In the case of the ears, this is so that grass seeds, dirt and other matter do not enter into the ear canal. The curved tail is dual-purposed: to be seen more easily in long grass and, in the case of burrowing dachshunds, to help haul the dog out if it becomes stuck in a burrow.[citation needed] The Smooth-haired Dachshund is a cross between the German Shorthaired Pinscher, and the Bracke. The Long-haired Dachshund is a cross between all the small dog breeds in the spaniel group, the German Stoberhund, and the Smooth-haired Dachshund. The Wirehaired Dachshund is a cross between the Smooth-haired Dachshund the Dandie Dinmont Terrier, and the German Wirehaired Pinscher.”

Will pet lovers help spread this?
Posted by admin | Under urns for dogs Friday Mar 26, 2010according to the interview linked bellow NFL star Joey Porter believes Micheal Vick, convicted of dog fighting and animal cruelty, should be forgiven and reinstated to his multi-million dollar NFL career. I believe anybody who thinks "All it was was dogs. They act like they don’t even like pit bulls anyway." and is willing to stand up for an inhumane being like Vick should feel the pain us animal lovers Boycotting anything with his name attached. What do you think? http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/rumors/post/Porter-on-Vick-All-it-was-was-dogs-?urn=nfl,123957
Micheal Vick deserves NOTHING !!!!!!
Who cares if he can throw a football..he should have thought about that when he decided that the lives of dogs don’t matter.
