My dog is getting awfully old, and the time is coming where she will probably pass away next year. I was wondering what do I do with her body after shes passes, because i really don't know what to do with it. Is there a place i can call? IE: the humane society? animal shelter"
we live in south. california
- thanks

You can Bury her on your property
or find a cemetery if you prefer.
You can cremate & keep the ashes in whatever you choose or dispose of them however you choose.
You can take her to a local Vet or animal shelter & ask they dispose her. They will charge a fee.

Hi,
When I had to have my 5 year old lab put down due to canceer we took him to the vet.I dont know what its like in south carolina but he buddy was cremated.I kept the ashes and buried them.That way is costly but the vet can dispose of body aswell,this is cheaper.
I have a new dog now and if she ever dies I will be burying her in my yard.We have llots of property
good luck

Depending on where you live you can have the choice to bury it where ever you choose or at a pet cemetary. Or most vet offer cremation where when your dog finally passes you can take it there and they can get it cremated and you can get the ashes back.

You mean you don't know? Dude you're from CALIFORNIA- don't you know the "cool thing to do with your pet?" is to freeze dry them in the position you most want them to be in?
Otherwise, pay the 200 and have the body cremated.
Or, if you don't like your neighbor, have your dog put down, then throw the body in the neighbors swimming pool then sue them for killing your dog

Call the humane society. It is legal in my state to bury your pet in the backyard. I used to do it in Californias over 20 years ago but I don't know if you can anymore. I grew up in Azusa.

Most likely u will have to put her to sleep.Alot of times they hold on so long that they are suffering.So you would take her to your vet. The best thing to do if she dies at home is to bury her in your backyard so you can know where she is. Otherwise call your vet.Good luck

If you live in a place that will be pretty permanent for you, then find your favorite tree or bush, dig a hole underneath it and bury the dog. Or you can buy a pretty bush or small shrub and bury it under that. Or talk to your vet.

When I lived in Texas, there was a pet cemetary. Call your vet and ask for advice and I'd recommend you do this ahead of time so you're aware of the options.
