Pet cemetery guardian

Limestone poodles, spaniels and hounds with baskets of flowers greet visitors at the entrances to this secluded wooded site, built as a memorial to the pet dogs Marjorie loved throughout her life. Her last dog, Scampi, was laid to rest in the Pet Cemetery in 1972.

A beautiful shot and a poignant one too. Anyone who loves dogs enough to have these memorials is a good person in my books! V

Well, a well trained little guy, he learned the command ... Stay! I bet you could also put a 'cookie' on its nose and he won't even try to eat it! Great catch Helen
