  1. When looking for an urn for your pet, make sure that you also pick one that symbolizes his/her personality. For example, your dog is a bit outgoing; make sure that you look for a wooden urn that provides a space for a picture. You should paste the picture of your dog while playing around your backyard, or playing fetch on the beach. Some urns don't provide have picture spaces, so you better look for one, or better yet, contact someone who can make it for you.
