When
you lose your horse, your treasured companion, it can be just like
losing your best friend. However, it is a reality and responsibility
that you ultimately accept when you choose to share and enrich your
life with a horse.
What can be even more painful, is that until now, there have been very
few options for handling your special friends when they pass away.
Whispering Pines Animal Crematorium, owned and operated by John
Silva is a state of the art facility available to horses and other
animals (small and large) from the entire New England Region and
beyond.
Cremation is a wonderful option to perpetuate your horse’s memory
because:
• Horses are cremated in entirety
• Each cremation is a private cremation
• Cremains are returned generally within 48 hours or less
• Your horse’s cremains are returned to you in a hand crafted
permanent wooden urn made from fine wood with raised panels
Coping with the loss of a horse is an emotional experience, because in
addition to your loss, there is the sensitive nature of handling the
deceased horse. Whispering Pines makes every effort to handle your
horse with the best of care.
There are several options available for your consideration
given each individual circumstance. Some of these are as follows:
• If it is humane for the horse to be transported alive to Whispering
Pines, arrangements can be made for a veterinarian to perform
euthanasia upon arrival
• Whispering Pines can provide transportation services from your farm
to the crematorium
• Euthanasia can be performed by your veterinarian at your farm
• In a situation where the horse has a scheduled euthanasia,
Whispering Pines would like to be “on alert”, so we can coordinate
with you and your veterinarian an appropriate pick-up time. Please
call our office at 603-516-0340 to schedule. Whispering Pines business
hours are Monday thru Friday 9:00am-5:00pm.
