Water Burial

Water Burial

Although not a traditional burial, a water burial involves scattering ashes over a body of water, creating a meaningful tribute to your beloved pet. This option holds special significance for dogs that loved swimming in rivers or accompanying you during fishing trips. While New Mexico may be far from the ocean, it is essential to note that the Federal Clean Water Act still governs regulations for scattering ashes on inland water. To scatter ashes on a river or lake, it may be necessary to obtain a permit from the state agency responsible for managing that specific body of water to ensure compliance with the law.
