What to do with your dog when he dies

What is a girl to do? When you spend your days buying and curating your personal taxidermy collection, what do you do when your beloved hairless dog dies? Thankfully Colonel Sanders is alive and kicking but everyone always asks “Will you  have the Colonel Stuffed?” This is a more perplexing question then you would think. My worry is that even an expert taxidermist would transform the Colonels human-like skin to the slick plasticity of  trophy pike. After a road-trip to New York and a visit to the MOMA my worries were solved. Not to stuff the Colonel, but to strip him! When our favourite companion and Conservatory greeter sadly dies we will have his bones stripped and reassembled in a glass domed jar with brass plaque. Taxidermy done well can convey charter and evoke emotion. I think I would prefer to remember him alive but am too sentimental to hide him under ground.
