Hello people.  My lovely dog has been diagnosed with cancer.  Its got me thinking about what to do with him after he has gone.  What happens does anyone know?  Do the larger vets offer a cremation service, or a temple?  What about burials, i was thinking maybe the beach (if we dont cremate) thats probably not allowed but im sure people would turn a blind eye and understand (would dig a deep grave for him)

 

Would you mind telling me what you did with your pets?  Any nice examples of where you scattered ashes or anything like that?

 

Anything else I should know about the whole thing?

 

He hasnt gone yet but he already had a kidney out and now has cancer and he is old (for his breed he is old but he is only 6)  so it wont be long, a few months I am guessing. 

 

Its all realy heartbreaking

Thanks Arjen.  Yah I would happily bury at home but we rent at the moment so thats not an option.  We are in Hua Hin, but there is a good chance we will be moving to Udon soon.  Thanks again.

So sorry to hear this.

 

Unofortunately I can't help with suggestions. Mine is buried right in the garden.

Klong Toei Nai temple in Bangkok does pet cremations.

 

I believe that if you request a pet cremation from Thonglor Animal Hospital, it's this temple that provides the service.

i am shredding a few tears for your beloved,i cant imagine what your going through.

i can only say if i am still around when its my boy,s turn[i want to go first] the wife who's a community worker has already spoken with the headman at the temple and yes my boy will be no different than any human,he will receive the full blessings from the monks and later cremated,i know most temple's have a place to cremate at the back.with his ashe's taking pride of place in the house.

TLS i only hope he doesnt sufer and is able to make his way over RAINBOW BRIDGE.

meatboy love me love my dog.

 

Having been through the same thing myself very recently, my heart goes out to you and your dog .

 

Here on Phuket its easy to arrange pet cremation and fortunately my vet made the arrangements on my behalf (I was incapable of talking about anything to anyone without bursting into tears), so I'd recommend talking to your vet as they will know whether or not its possible in your area.

Why shouldn't you bury him in your garden?  You don't have to ask your landlord.

Obviously I can't speak for the OP, but assume that the fear is that he will move and his dog will be dug up when new tenants move in and plant something (without realising) where his dog is buried?

If so, probably best to plant a large plant over the grave.  Less chance of digging up.

 

(Totally off topic, but I remember my grandfather, many decades ago, telling me about growing grape vines in Wales.  They'd plant the roots outside of a greenhouse, and put a whole dead sheep in the hole to fertilise the vine.  The shoots would then be lead through a hole in the side of the greenhouse to the inside and warmth.)

Know what you mean, but the new tenant may not like the large plant.

 

I'm not trying to be difficult as I've buried many pets previously with, IMO, the most beautiful/representative plant, shrub or tree possible - but having later moved, still get upset that they may well have been 'dug up' by those that moved in later .

Sorry to come in late on this.

 

I lost my golden retriever a couple of years back to cancer, and  I couldn't  bare to touch her after she had gasped her last breath.

 

My wife contacted one of the more established animal hospitals and sure enough, they had a service which included collecting the poor thing and then cremating it in a Buddhist ceremony. It wasn't expensive.

 

If you haven't already done so, I'm sure you can find a similar service in Hua Hin. There seems to be quite a demand for it.

 

They won't put them to sleep, but they will help after they die.

If you talk to the vet who is taking care of his medical needs, they can usually tell you about cremation facilities.  

 

My thoughts are with you.   I went through this with my dog of 17 years and losing him was absolutely horrible.  

 

I am so sorry for your heart break about dogs.

 

Some Thai Temples provided cremation for dog /Pet already.

 

For your choice about this matter  in future :

 

Near Sukhumvit area ( Bangkok) , there is one big temple and provide this service.

 

Yang Temple (วัดยาง),  Sukhumvit 77 road ( On-Nut 23)  Tel.no. 02-332-2499

 

Any call to them, please talk in Thai  only.

 

 

FYI: We just called and they still provide this service starting with 1,500B. Additional services are available.

Also the Wat near Ekamai BTS. The pet crematorium is at the back on the left hand site. Taken two there.
