Respectful Equine Burial Options to Honor Your Horse
The bond between a horse and their owner is something truly special, forged through years of dedicated training, companionship on the trail, and an ineffable connection. So when the heart-wrenching time comes to say goodbye to your noble equine friend, you want to provide them with a dignified and honorable final resting place.
At Graver Horse Removal, we understand just how deep the human-horse relationship goes. Horses become members of our families, beloved for their strength, spirit and undeniable heart. Our equine burial and cremation options allow owners to lay their faithful companions to rest in a respectful manner befitting of the endless love and loyalty they provided.
On-Site Private Burial
For many owners, being able to bury their horse’s remains at the property where you shared so many cherished memories together can make the grieving process a little easier. We facilitate private burials directly on your farm, ranch or facility grounds with digging and preparations tailored to your preferences.
You can choose to have the burial site in a favorite pasture, paddock or tranquil corner of your land. We carefully lay the remains in a respectful natural pose with the option to include personal mementos like saddles, blankets or treats. The gravesite area is restored leaving a peaceful resting place.
Pet Cemetery Burial
If you prefer having your horse laid to rest at a licensed pet cemetery designed specifically for animal interments, we can transport them to a third-party location you select. Most pet cemeteries offer burial plots for horses with optional services like:
– Engraved headstones or memorial markers
– Perpetual gravesite care and upkeep
– Beautified grounds with trees, flowers, benches
– Option for future animals to be buried nearby
Many owners appreciate having a designated cemetery providing a permanent memorial site they can visit.
Cremation Services
Cremation is an increasingly popular option that allows you to keep your horse’s remains for home memorial options or spreading on treasured trails. Many equine crematoriums offering:
– Private Cremation: Your horse is cremated alone, with the complete ashes returned for keeping or scattering.
– Partitioned Cremation: Remains are co-mingled during group cremation, with a portion of the ashes returned.
– Printing of hoofprints, plaster showpiece cremains, cremation jewelry and other keepsake options.
Whatever your burial preference may be, our equine removal specialists make sure your horse receives the utmost care and dignity through their final journey. Contact us to discuss options and pricing for honoring your horse’s one-of-a-kind spirit and memory.
