So hear me out, I would like to get my dog stuffed. He’s 17 years old (we think). I brought him home from the shelter 15 or so years ago and my sister commented, “You would get the ugliest one they had”. Shaky at best reasons I want to preserve him through the ages: 1) There will never be a dog as unique and awkward as this dog, I feel that needs to be preserved 2) He could be dressed for different occasions and become the afterlife of the party 3) I would like to make my children’s/grandchildren’s inheritance contingent on displaying him prominently in their home as a way to troll the generations long after I’m gone.

BUT, turns out stuffing a dog is very expensive. I thought I would see if anyone else would like to contribute to preserving our dearest Chico into the ages.
