Gray Beard Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 My In laws have two or three dogs buried in the back yard. They probably won’t be able to stay in that house for more than a few years at this point. I imagine the memory of what dogs were buried and where will be forgotten. We have ashes in a nice box on a bookshelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marv's Neighbor Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 4 cats in the yard. I wish I still had 2 of the 4. Had several great dogs but never considered burying a dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coloradobillsfan Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I had a tiny catfish that lived 15 years - impressed me so much I couldn't bear to flush him so I buried him next to our apartment building. A few months later, I come home from work to find an excavator in the yard - they're tearing up the whole place including my makeshift plot to fix a drainage issue LOL I wonder if he's haunting them for disturbing his peaceful rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Yes. Leni (pretty sure not a He: Lenny, but one can't be too sure)... A brown anole. She hitched a ride north from Florida, via eBay 10 years ago on a chair, furniture. Lived a fine life eating crickets in a terrarium for almost 3 years. She's in a jewelry box buried in the garden. May her soul rest in peace! She looked like this: 57 minutes ago, row_33 said: Nope, they go to the common ash heap at the vets. Despicable! 2 minutes ago, Augie said: Never have.

Same deal except it was a Betta for us. I worked with a guy whose dog was getting close to the end so in preparation he started digging the hole in his backyard....with his dog watching. I always thought that was messed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Gal Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 My last dog's ashes are in the curio in the living room. Current pooch will be buried in the backyard as hubby says. "That is [dog's name] backyard, and he will be buried there so he can always watch over it." (The time is very close, so why we are having these discussions.)

CookieG Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 2 cats and our beloved Coonhound, under a Mulberry bush. After he was put to sleep the vet asked if we were going to bury him in our back yard. I reminded him it was against a city ordinance. He just put his hand on my shoulder and said, "eh, do it at night.". 2 days later we received a sympathy card from his office, signed by everyone who works there.

billrooter Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 My dog Bear is buried in the front yard, he was about an 18 pound Pomeranian. His brother from another mother Finn will be near him hopefully in the very distant future. His resting place is under a tree had to fight the roots buryiing him but yard is only three quarters an acre was just the best place for him.

Punching Bag Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 At least one of my daughter's guinea pigs were buried in backyard. We bought her a guinea pig for birthday and not too long after my wife wakes me up - there are mice in guinea pig pen. I went down to check and told her it is not mice, she had babies. Evidently we got a breeder from pet store and with it a buy 1, get three free sale. As they got older one was too interesting in siblings and we wanted no West Virginia guinea pigs and it was shipped out to relative. Evidently we were wrong about the behavior we observed for that guinea pig ended up being a female and we know that because it gave birth. When my wife's Koi died I think she buried it in backyard. It was so big it filled entire length of 50 gallon fish tank. It died because during a storm it would thrash around and flip itself out of tank and it did it one too many times and died before my wife could get it back in tank, While not a pet we found a lynx (bobcat) stuck between two fences at back of yard where it died. We could not get it out without taking down fence so we just buried it there including both sides of fence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I have a dog buried in my side yard ..... but it's not my dog. The original owner buried the dog there around 15-20 years ago, I'd say. I only realized it after uncovering a little grave marker that the owner before me (2nd owner; I am the 3rd) either planted grass over it, or just allowed it to be covered over the years. I keep it exposed as much as I can out of respect. As far as my pets, I've got 3 urns full of cats' ashes on my dresser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hammersticks Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Buried my mini-dachshund in the side yard. Had to put her down after she bit 4 or 5 people...the last of which was my son. Spent thousands of dollars on dog trainers, psychologists, and eventually doggy Zoloft. I never liked that stupid dog anyway. She was a little !@#$.
