When we had to put my cat down the vet gave us a small clay disc that had her paw prints in it and her name in it. I cried for an hour when she came over and delivered it.
How very sensitive of you. I like to think of this as a physical reminder of all the memories they had with their dog, and something to remember him/her by. As someone who has lost two cats, one of which had to be put down, I'd have absolutely treasured something like this, I think it's compassionate and rather beautiful.
I guess there's two kinds of people. You say, oh how nice. I instantly think, what if the paw print imprints the dog ghost to you. That's too spooky for me
I wish I would have been able to do something like that for my first dog. She was hit by a car and we had to throw her away in the garbage

My dog died in her sleep. She was old and sick. We gave her a funeral in the backyard with our other pets. I would've loved to have something like this to remember Luna with.
