Pet urn 'Bobtail / Old English Sheepdog'

The portrait that deserves its place

A Bobtail is not just any dog. That distinctive coat, the bounding energy, the way he filled every room he walked into, none of that can be replaced. This pet cremation urn does not try to replace it. It simply shows him as he was: recognisable, present, and entirely yours.

Hand-crafted in Italy

This ceramic urn is shaped and painted entirely by hand by a single artist in Italy. Every detail of the coat, the posture, and the colouring is applied with close attention and real precision. Ceramic demands patience and skill at every stage of its making, and you can see that in the finished piece. No two are exactly alike, which gives each one its own quiet character.

The base as urn

The base of the figure serves as the urn itself. Your pet's ashes are held inside, and the base can be opened by unscrewing the fixings on the underside. The urn is suitable for use with or without an ash bag.

More than a memento

If you are looking for something that genuinely reflects the bond you shared with him, a portrait that actually looks like him carries a different kind of weight to a generic figure. It becomes a place in your home where his presence stays real. The multicoloured finish is painted to the breed standard, which means the likeness to a Bobtail is immediate and honest.

Placement and care indoors

This urn for ashes is designed for indoor use. Ceramic is most stable in a settled environment, away from direct moisture and significant changes in temperature. Choose a fixed spot where the piece is not at risk of being knocked, a shelf, a sideboard, or inside a display cabinet all work well. Kept in the right conditions, it will hold both its quality and its dignity over time.

A place that suits him

The Bobtail was a breed with a strong personality and an unmistakable appearance. This figure is not a generic dog shape. It is a portrait of this breed specifically, and that distinction matters. If you would like to add his name or a date, a small memorial plate or name plaque can be considered as an addition alongside the urn, a personal touch that makes it entirely his.
