What do I get someone whose dog just died?
Asked 3 years ago
Hello guys, my friend's dog just died -she got hit by a car- and he is distraught. Are there any keepsakes or gifts that you can recommend I buy him?

You could get your friend a commissioned pet portrait or painting, a shadow box pet memorial, a photo frame with a picture of their dog, or a memorial stone for their garden. You could order a special blanket with a photo of their pet printed on it, a keychain with an engraved pawprint, or a symbolic piece of jewelry, perhaps with their pet's name. You could also donate to a local shelter in their name.

There are many gifts for when someone's dog dies. You can give them a piece of jewelry that presents their pet, like an engraved keychain or pendant, or get a stuffed animal made that looks like their dog. You could frame a photo of them and their dog together or have a portrait painted of their dog.
