We buried our dogs when we were kids in our yard. Mum and Dad still live there and it's been paved now.
I had Our Guinness cremated and it cost $200 for that. Vet didn't charge me though since i'm basically putting his son through Chef School.
Since I rent, I would never bury my dogs (or any other dog) on my property. I'll be having Cordelia and Gen cremated (as well as Shelby and Kate).
And yep, it is illegal to bury a dog on a residential block, but I've never heard of anyone being in trouble for it. Then again.....depends on the circumstances too.
I know someone who supposedly buried 11 dogs in her yard in one afternoon.......I think THAT amount of dogs being euthanased in one day should be thoroughly investigated by the RSPCA including Exhumation of the bodies now. But thats another story. :shakehead:
