My Pug Scoop (Precious Scoop has passed... )

Vicki, I have kept some fur from my Barkis since he passed nine years ago. It is in a little painted bowl, and open to the air. So far, it has stayed just exactly the same.

Sending you tons of hugs,
Marianne

Vicki:
Since a dogs hair is living when they are with us it would probably deteriorate some if left out, but would still be ok I would think. I keep Tipper's sealed up as I want to try and keep her scent on it. Sending you hugs, and thinking of you all the time. Blessings

I have looked at this site http://www.gatewaypetmemorial.com/ several times and am going to buy a necklace with Keesh's ashes. Is there something like this in your neighbourhood?

Thanks everybody. I have 2 separate little patches of fur. The hospital gave me some in a plastic pill container the night Scoop passed. The next day I knew he was still at the hospital and I asked if I could get some more. They put that in a plastic zip bag. The fur in the container kind of clumped together and then separated into 3 little clumps. The fur in the bag seems to be going all over the bag. Just don't know what is the best.

I thought about a piece of jewelry to put some in. Just not sure how well fur will go in a necklace. I would like a heart with a paw print on it or a paw shaped necklace.

Vicki, I just wanted to extend my sympathy on Scoop's passing. I don't get on here much and read your recent posts. I am so sorry.

Sending hugs, peace and mercy.

Love, Sharon, Norman and Millie

Dear Vicky
I cry with you. Your baby is now at peace. My Apollo died Sept 9,2012, and the pain and grief still is there. I received a beautiful heart necklace with paw print which says "always in my heart" the heart separates and has a tiny urn. I put Apollo's fur in it, wear it around my neck and hold it a lot. I also put some of his fur in a velvet little bag have it hanging on my car mirror and reach out for it often, also his collar is on my car rear view window. My dear do what ever you need to keep Scoop close to you. No words I can say will make it better. Know Angel Scoop is being greeted with love by Angel Apollo. He is watching down on you know. Write to him, and let your feelings out. We are here for you. With love and sympathy.
Sonja, Angel Apollo.

Sharon and Sonja,
Thank you for your kind, loving words.
The past, almost 4 weeks, have been really hard. I miss my Scoop so much.

Marianne, That's good to hear that Barkis' fur is still the same after 9 years.
It seems like it will be OK in a vial or open to the air.

Sonja, I saw a necklace on Amazon that sounds like the one you described. I like that one but I wasn't sure if the fur would go in the urn since I thought it was made for ashes I was afraid it would be too small. Since you have some of Apollo's fur in it maybe I'll give it a try.

Bob and Moo,
I thought that was so neat that you have Lulu's baby teeth. I wish I had Scoop's. This might sound strange but I did keep some of Scoop's nail clippings from one of his last clippings that we did.

Sending hugs and prayers to you Vicki, this is so hard when they pass, and hard when they have the disease, really no winning in this journey.....I think its cool what you save of Scoops no matter what it is...I wish this would get easier, but it doesn't seem to for right now....take care.....
