When a pet dies, it is natural to want to honor him or her with a proper burial. We understand that pets are members of the family, and laying them to rest is an important part of the grieving process, and gives a sense of closure so that the pets' people can begin to heal. We want to help.

Burying Recommendations:
Before digging push down with your shovel in a square shape the size width and
length hole you will be digging. This will allow you to try to remove the grass and
some top soil intact for placement back over the grave
Using the shovel, pry up the grass and topsoil in sections and place on side for
reinsertion later
Dig a hole 3 feet deep with enough room to fit the casket on for width and depth
Place the casket in the hole and fill dirt around the casket and above the casket,
pausing for the next step when you have about 1 inch of dirt on top of the casket
Sprinkle the soil at this point with lime to prevent other animals from scavenging
your grave site
Fill the rest of the way with dirt, compacting it as you go
At the top, place your grass and topsoil pieces back down. Lightly water your
grass in that area for the next few days (intensity of watering depends on season
and breed of grass) to try to reduce the shock of uprooting and give it a better
chance of taking hold again
