After a pet pᴀsses away, it can be comforting to visit their graveside to pay respects. But one dog’s very special burial site has become a favorite spot of local dog lovers in the area, drawn to his unique grave.
That’s quite an honor, and it’s clear Rex was very much loved in his time and meant a lot to his family. He is believed to have belonged to a fruit merchant named John E. Stow, who died in 1884.But while Rex, and all those who knew him, are long gone now, this dog’s gravesite still gets plenty of love from visitors.
In Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn there is a gravestone for a dog named Rex. People bring him sticks and place them at his feet because he is still a good boy. cc: @dog_rates pic.twitter.com/0GhxcZwjSz
