Woman Arrested Following Fake Dog Cremation Scandal

Woman Arrested Following Fake Dog Cremation Scandal

Submitted by K9 Magazine News Editor on September 14, 2009 – 5:39 pm


A 34-year old woman has been arrested for alleged fraud after dogs
were found dumped in a field after their owners believed them to have
been considerately cremated.
K9 Magazine reported on the shocking case earlier this month,
following the case of an owner from Nottinghamshire who was informed by
the RSPCA that her dog’s body had been discovered in a field. It
later transpired that the owner had been informed that their dog, a
Border Collie, had been cremated – they had even received the
supposed ashes of the much missed pet.
The dog was supposed to have been cremated at Peak Pet Cremations in Heage, where the owners had paid the bill for the service.
Police would not confirm whether the woman arrested, who is from Heage, worked for the company.
The The Association of Private Pet Cemeteries and Crematoria (APPCC) have made the following statement:
Given the news of the recent arrest the APPCC feels reassured that
the authorities are taking this case seriously and the families
involved can take some solace from the hope that those responsible for
this atrocity will be appropriately punished.
Although we understand that Ambivet had offered to cremate both dogs
free of charge through the company that they are now using, the owners
have instead chosen to use the services of a member of the APPCC;
Nottingham Pet Crematorium – a specialist individual pet
crematorium in West Bridgeford established by John & Rita
Harbury-Carlisle in 1994.
John Harbury-Carlisle says

“In contrast to the companies used by many
veterinary surgeries we look after every pet individually with the
dignity and respect they deserve and do not carry out mass cremations
or dispose of clinical waste. We wanted to give some comfort to both
the families involved in this tragic incident and have provided our
services free of charge.”
Kevin Spurgeon, a Director of the APPCC says “We are glad we
have been able to restore some of the owners’ faith and shown
that at least some pet crematoria do care, are professionally run and
can offer a genuine service to pet owners wanting an individual
cremation. Like all our members, Nottingham Pet Crematorium adheres to
a strict code of practice. We feel it is a shame that at present
Ambivet have not chosen to offer Nottingham Pet Crematorium’s
personal and specialist individual services to their clients alongside
the company they are now using.”
