Default Nikka...and soon to be Titan's...memorial garden pics

Wanted to show you guys a couple of pics of where we laid Nikka to rest in our backyard and the BEAUTIFUL stepping stone I had made for her. It even has a place where we connected her dog tag to at the bottom.

We buried her 2 weeks ago yesterday, got the new puppy the very next day...and then Titan died 2 days later. It is still SURREAL that I am going to have to order another stone and bury my boy. I had JUST felt a bit of peace finally laying her in her resting place after 2 months of grieving hard for her unexpected loss. Those 2.5 days I had after her burial with the new puppy and Titan were the happiest my husband said he had seen me since Nikka died in April. It's no wonder I experienced what shock feels like for the first time that night at the emergency vet clinic when Titan was put to sleep. Life can be SO cruel....

Such a beautiful stone you had made for her As well as a beautiful area to lay them down. Looks very peaceful.
This puppy is really lucky to have you as her forever mom
Hugs and happy thoughts being sent your way from Jersey!

I just hate coming into this forum. But I couldn't resist your thread, and am glad I looked. That stepping stone is absolutely lovely and a truly wonderful memorial to your beloved pet. And the tag thing is VERY awesome- how special!

Can I ask where you got it made? I would love to get one for my lab Belle who passed away earlier this year.

That is a beautiful resting place that you have there, and the stones are awesome. We have statues over the graves of our lost babies situated in the ivy under the pine trees. The little one in the picture is now buried above her big sister.
