[quote=Anonymous]We just went through this. We waited. It was the right call for us. But if I had a child who might feel guilty about having enjoyed camp when their dog was dying, or a child who had a strong need to be in control of things, I might make a different choice. We had our dog cremated and had the ashes in a nice container along with printing out some photos and keeping a clip of her hair, so when our children got home we had tangible artifacts. We also picked up all the dog toys, but kept them easily accessible in the dog's crate so our children could pick out any toys/mementos they wanted.[/quote]
