How to Select the Right Metal Pet Cremation Urns

There are not many occasions more traumatic than losing a nearby individual from the family. For many pet owners, losing their long-time companion can be a source of tremendous grief, but deciding what to do with their pet's remains only adds to the trauma of the experience. This is why many are turning to professional memorial designers to guide them through the process of selecting the right Metal Pet Urns for their beloved pet's remains.

How to Select the Right Size Metal Cremation Urn for Your Pet

When considering a memorial for your pet, size is the first consideration. The size of the urn you will purchase will ultimately depend on the size of your pet. For example, toy poodles may require a little dedication while Great Danes will require an extra-huge urn. A general guideline for choosing the correct urn for your pooch is to recollect that 1 cubic inch rises to 1 pound of weight. A 20-pound pooch will require 20 cubic crawls of room or more. An 80-pound dog will require an 80 cubic inch urn. However, urns are not the only options for memorializing a dog. Smaller keepsake urns and scattering tubes allow a portion of your pet's ashes to be spread in a beloved place while retaining a portion for a memorial in your home.

Selecting a Memorial is a Design Decision

Pet urns for ashes do not have to be kitschy, shaped like a pet, or overly-simple. In fact, it is essential to select an urn that you will want to display in your home. From natural to modern, square to round, the variety of urns on the market are as varied as the design tastes of pet owners.
