The pet cemetery

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.

The dacha is in the background.
