German Shepherd urns, sized to them.
Most German Shepherds weigh 50 to 90 lb (23 to 41 kg), so they need about 58 to 102 cubic inches (950 to 1,670 ml) of space. Our Medium urn holds a dog up to 66 lb (30 kg) and our Large up to 88 lb (40 kg). For a big male over 88 lb (40 kg), ask us before you order.
We sculpt each of our photo urns from your German Shepherd's own photos, so it is a likeness of them, not a breed model. Enter their weight below to check the size.

Choosing for a German Shepherd, answered plainly.
What size urn does a German Shepherd need?
Most German Shepherds weigh 50 to 90 lb (23 to 41 kg), so they need about 58 to 102 cubic inches (950 to 1,670 ml) of space. Our Medium urn holds a dog up to 66 lb (30 kg) and our Large up to 88 lb (40 kg). For a big male over 88 lb (40 kg), ask us before you order.
Allow one cubic inch of space for each pound they weighed when they were well, plus a tenth, plus 3 cubic inches. Use your German Shepherd's own weight, not the breed's: your vet will have a record of it. If they were close to the top of a size, choose the next one up.
Can you make an urn that looks like my German Shepherd?
Yes. We sculpt it from your photos of them, so it shows your German Shepherd, not a stock figure.
Send a few clear photos and we design it for free; you pay nothing until you say yes to the design. Making takes 10 working days from your yes.
What if my German Shepherd weighed more than 88 lb (40 kg)?
Ask us before you order, and we will tell you what we can make for them.
Can the urn go outdoors?
Yes: the stone takes rain and frost.
The urn does not seal out rain, so the ashes stay in their sealed bag inside it.
