  • If she loved her dog THAT much.. Then she should of gotten it taxidermied instead. That way it still looks alive. 

  • Sticker shock aside, if these mummies can last as long or longer than the Egyptian specimens.... these artifacts will become curiosities..if not antiquities in themselves.

  • How do the majority of people sit behind their keyboards and type such slander? Different people feel different things, they have different beliefs and go through the process of grief differently. I for one am so thankful there are so many options when our loved ones pass... I'm a hobbyist taxidermist and was going to taxidermy my lizard. Now he's cremated but you know what, I'm so thankful there are the options there. Everyone needs to learn some respect... blessings to those dealing with loss.

  • omg the guy sounds freaky!!! im scared.

  • you'll still feel the same way either if you mummify, cremate, or bury your animal. let the owner decide. and if your pet was just as close to you as you are to it why not.

  • looks like this dog just drowned-.- and talking to this poor dog? people can be stupid as hell!

  • mother fucking assholes im gonna get a knife open ur pants and put it in ur ass u assholes get a heart and a life u dicks if i was there i would get my poop in a plate and then make u eat it and take my pee and make u drink it instead of pepsi u dickheads doing that to innocent animals u freaks mother fucking assholes

  • $25,000 ? I guess some people have just too much money to play with

  • that is just WRONG

  • I wanna mummify my hamster....

  • wierdos

  • :/ This is weird. Whatever happened to the shoebox-in-the-garden treatment?

  • I love my pets and all, but this is absolutely ridiculous lol

  • i wouldv rather get the sports car

  • no, just no.

  • ....Yeah, I'd rather send the cat to college for that sort of ridiculous rich person cash.

  • This isn't wrong. Death is just another step. The Egyptians had that knowledge long before we did. I cremated my cats that died of leukemia and have them here with me right now. This is far from what I did, but another form of it. Is it wrong to want to hold onto something for as long as you can? To have your companion that went through everything with you, saw you cry, saw you happy, etc?

  • ewww this doesnt give beloved pets to rest in peace this is awful do it like most people do bury a hole in the ground and bury it...

  • what..the...fuuuuuuck...  o_o

  • What the heck!? How can people working on this can enjoy doing it? It´s this some kind of art or what! What is next? People mumificated by gold?! -.-´´

  • 25k?? man i would just put mud and dry it JEEZ

  • dear god. I will never see my dog, Sitka, the same again O_O"

  • this is just wrong

  • I would have done this for my cat 12 years ago if they had it in my town. What a way to keep them with you. And most towns and citys do not allow you to burry your pets in your yard anymore. They toss them all in a furnace and up they go. So whats better?

  • Interesting yet disturbing!

  • I just threw up in my mouth a little bit

  • I don't really have a problem with this I mean some people need that kind of closure, I wouldn't do it though, however if this catches on and someone kills their pet just to mummify it to be "cool" or something, then I would probably Vomit. A lot.

  • WHY WOULD YOU WANT A DEAD DOG IN YOUR HOUSE STILL O.O

  • This woman must have an organic brain disorder that is dated back to the Pharohs.

  • diseased

  • YOU ARE EVIL I DONT THINK THAT DOG IS VERY HAPPY

  • CRUEL YOU FUCKING TWATS

  • o____O; that's here in utah??? ehhhh i hope i dont suddenly see mummies at my friends houses....

  • i would not like this, not the way god wanted death to look like...

  • This is no different than embalming a corpse. Except that they dont then put it into a casket (rendering the embalming process absolutely useless btw) and then drop it into the ground. It is a practice that pre-dates cremation AND ground burial.

    You people are just mad that you dont have 25 large to drop on the mummification of Bowser the Schnauzer.

  • i bet soon theyre going to mummify people...

  • 25,000 dollars? These sick fucks are just playing on people's grieving of something they have become attached to. I love my dog to death. But I'm not going to pay 25, 000 dollars for some sick fucks to mummify him and assured that I can never move on.

  • Yea how selfish! do u think the poor dog would want to be violated like this! fucked up

  • i want my dog and guinea pig mummified.i wonder if they mumify humans?

  • yup.....this is fucked up.

  • Beurk!

  • Thats sick. I can't believe people think keeping a mummified corpse around your house is a good way to remember someone... Now there bodies will be left on this earth to be traded or rot. I'm getting cremated then dumped in the ocean or crushed into a diamond that my family can sell or keep, I don't care, cause I'll be in VALHALLA WOOTNESS!!!

  • LET THEM REST IN PEACE!!

  • she is totally sick women she need a doctor immidietly....hahahhahaa

  • fuck that shit no animal is worth 25k.what a bunch of dumbasses.that ugly lady preffered a stupid dog mummy over a sportscar>? looooooollllooolololooooooolll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­looooooooooooooooooooooollllll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­looooooooooooooooooooooooooolo­lolololooloooololllloooooooooo­ooolllllllllllllllllllllllllll­lllllllllllllllllllllooooooooo­oooooolllllllllllllllllloooooo­ooooooooolllllllllllllllllllll­llllooooooooooooooooooooolllol­olololool dumbass granny lololololololololo

  • I think I will just have my kitty cremated and probably buy an urn in an Egyptian cat styled urn. Less expensive.

  • great niche market... xP

  • that woman will likely just throw her mother in a box when she dies and she does that for her dog!!!! lol

  • this is kind of... sick. But whatever, to each his own, right?

  • omg if u ever respected ur pet u would have buried it normally u monsters

  • Have you guys every thought that maybe people just like their pets better than humans, I would say to the dick who said help people around the world does nothing but post useless comments @hlwanmoe1981 I loved my dog better than majority of people and I would rather save the life of my pet than any useless human, look at what we have done to destroy this earth. Fuck mankind I am rolling with MANS BEST FUCKING FRIEND!

  • @DJaneWonderfalls, SAME :D

  • i dont like it id rather the body go to the earth

  • do you think science one day will have the ability to raise dead beings ???

  • @learning112233 no, it'll never happen, once ur dead ur dead, god takes ur spirit no human can make tht spirit return unless god sends it back

    Blessings

  • my next job!

  • this is good for the economy , employs people.

  • Bull Shit......this is beyond Pity.Now she can sleep with a mummified dog next to her.

  • @monopily6 You have to be kidding.

  • @shaneuk666 LOL!!!

  • Yeah lady, if your dog knew it was being mummified it probably be thinking- WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING TO ME?! Fucking sick

  • WTF

  • this is cruelty for the corpse..

  • This is kinda...Creepy!

  • she must have thousands of $ to throw away!

  • 25,000!!!!!!!! bloody bring you dead pet round my house and ill wrap it up for a tenth of that lol thats crazy, and it dont suprise me one bit that its in america

  • sick

  • I could never do that to my dog or cat!

  • Did this guy choose his name??? Pompous ass!

  • This is SO weird.

  • $25,000... just oh my gosh! D: I'm dying to get braces for my teeth and it's only like $5,000.. give me some money lady! I won't waste any of your money for sure with braces..

  • 1:05 WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE

  • @v4lkyr i find this distrubing animals deserve to be burried just as we do i dont like cremations that take place and this is just as sick as people that make jewelry out of the ashes of dead people!!

  • Spend the money on loving another animal! Not unnecessarily mummifying yours. It's just weird. It's called pictures and memories. You don't do this with people

  • Mummifying your own pet. It can't get anymore epic than that. Imagine having a dead dog sitting next to your TV, lol.

  • THIS IS CREEPY!!!

  • wow wtf man? Were that dog still alive when they put it in the water?

    WTF.

    FKEN EVIL PEOPLE!

  • @209hmonggirl the dog was obviously dead!!!!! they just treat the dog like a living one......

  • wow man 25,000$ :S just do the pet a favour and let them rest in peace not be your toys!!

  • just bury your dogs in the back garden like normal people you freaks.

    

  • a sports car... to a dead dog?---25000

  • Thats just wrong. On so many levels

  • I'm disgusted whit such people! Just let the poor animal rest in peace! If you really loved a pet , you'll never forget it! I mean this is sick! Why don't you use the money and help people and animals that are alive and need help! I just don't understand people like those!

  • What a waste of money....anyways, love how the people are wearing gas masks while the woman is exposed to whatever they are protecting themselves from :P

  • this is evil...bury them...i feel bad for those dog

  • sick! go give that thing a proper burial or cremation instead of decorating its body in your lawn as a showpiece......that will rest the poor animals soul.!

  • @nrgshkl093 egyptians believed mummification did let the soul rest... just an f.y.i

  • This Is So Cruel!. What Ever Did Happen To R.I.P?!

  • thats wrong n sick thats god's animals ur playing with n ur smileing like its a GOOD thing well its not i agree with hlwanmoe1981 n that poor dog ( white ) there are lots of ppl out there with no food like hatiti if my cat died i will let her die in piece not in a fucking MUMMY there were not born as a mummy they should not die as a mummy thats all I HAVE TO SAY

  • Will people just let animals rest in piece too and besides this is sick

  • aww :) i wished they would do that when people die XD!

  • Why? Why the fuck, would you mummify animals? I know this may sound kool, but mummifying animals is a disgrace to the human world,Go ahead and mummify me, idk, but when it comes to animals, everyone who's done that, can go fucking mess up their world, ( Also we have technology, that has industrialized are living bodies, make us live longer, why don't we use it with death also, but not following a past culture, like Egyptians, while doing it)

  • Hm, I want to be mummified too now

  • thats just sick.

  • who is sitka ??!?!?

  • I cried at the part With the real dog. Sitka was it? I can't imagine my baby puppy dying. I wouldn't want my babies body to just not be able to take it's natural course no matter how upsetting it is.

  • i would never do that that is what they did in the past but today we give them a proper way to let them rest in piece

  • i don't mind how people would do that for there pets its pretty cool to my (fan of Egypt history) but 2500$...that's a lot for your dead pet don't you think and i think that lady at 1:16 needs help 0.0

  • Why are so may people against this? fair enough if you think its weird but its not as if the're harming the animals in any way

  • 25000 dollars, THESE PEOPLE ARE SICK!

  • aw. these pet owners really love their pets so much! i'm not sure how i feel about this, but it makes me happy to see people who love their pets so much!

  • Yes worth the money if you work there and earn a lot of other peoples money...

  • Basically they're removing these people's ability to let go of things they love. In my opinion, not completely healthy, mentally speaking. But it makes for a good conversation piece when you have a dinner party...

  • I don't hold a grudge on these people because they mummyfi their pets.But i wouldn't do it, because pets,in my opinion should be burried.If you mummyfi your pet,it doesn't seem anymore like your beloved pet,it seems like an object.I don't want to objectify my pet.Just sayin'..

  • money money money

  • truely i wouldnt do that

  • ehh?

  • what do u smile blond of shit?!?!?..this is a dog..and he need his regolar putrefaction...and now..thx of u..he have lose it.. fuck u and your genealogic tree!

  • Not any weirder than taxidermy, or people freezing their heads/bodies, people.

    Grow up.

  • @bestleftunknown i dont see the big deal if the pet is dead then why not? these people need to grow up but thier prices for this are outragouse

  • Dont Worry, they only mummify when they die.

  • They would mummify their animals, because they believed they would live in the afterlife. Usually Egyptians mummified their cats beacause they worshipped them. They believed they were the gardians of the underworld. So their is nothing grose about it to me. I love studying Ancient Egypt.

  • this people is fucking crazy!!

  • are you saying the lifesize gold cat and dog are real?i mean real?but like gold plating you dead cat?

  • who would want to mumify ur dog or cat?

  • thats fcking sick!!!

  • i can't believe someone would do that to their animals thats not right back then i understand but now...wow what are people thinking

  • OMG holy sht....

  • "Service that she gave me.." What service?!

  • um ew!

  • why have to keep the dead body, when the spirit is already gone and only thing what keeps your loved one still a life is your own memories. the body just reminds you what you have lost and you just can not get griewing done, while the silent stare of the dead ones eyes is still there.

  • is it just me, or are others extremely disturbed by this.

  • @CatholicOrder a little yeah! That dude looked a little crazy.

  • if i died and i found out that i was being mummified i would haunt the person who did it and scare the living tar out of um.

  • Its wrong because if someone did that to your family member and used them as a statue you would think its not right

  • Not very original to the ancient Egyptian mummifacation. Oh well. =)

  • sick peoples..

  • IDIOTS::::

  • $25000 for nothing but just to make mummy pet? Come on....go around the world and help the people those are really desperate need help, they're starving and dying..guess that guy is cheating.

  • @hlwanmoe1981 fuck humans dude. I love hearing about natural disasters killing people.

  • @hlwanmoe1981 i agree with u on that mummy ur pet thing ^^

  • @hlwanmoe1981 so sell your computer and send your cash off to green peace, what does it matter what people do with the animal remains, at the vet they just get stacked up and cremated, as for going around the world and spreading wealth with 25 grand you won't be going to far or doing to much wealth spreading if you expect to get home

  • @hlwanmoe1981 There are always people like you on the net that are like "OMFG DON'T PAY £5 FOR THAT.. GO HELP PEOPLE IN AFRICA INSTEAD"

    It's easier said than done pal.

  • fuck these people, waste of money

  • in my opinion i would just let my dog rest the normal way.

  • An animal rescue organization could do a lot with $25,000. for animals living and present and suffering.

  • Must be the wives of bank CEOS. Doesn't this stink of CHASE.

  • LMFAO!!! HA HA HA

  • dis is a really good idea but wut sucks is dat its 25,000$ -.- they could atleast be like 5,000$ instead?but the reason why dis is good is because instead of burning ur dog into ashes or burrying him in the ground and NEVER see him again...this would be a good idea cuz u can always be with ur pet

  • that guy is creepy. who else thinks that this guy is one bad day away from mummifying all of his family?

  • that is SO FUCKED UP!! and the man's voice isn't helping!!

  • $20,000...could feed, clothe, and shelter...a real human being for a whole year!

  • wow the end is a creep

  • this is sick

  • waste of money !!

  • They are denying rights of other living being-we all have rights to either buried or cremated in order to belong to this world again. Very selfish people!

  • ugh so weird!

  • "i was gonna buy a sports car, but i made a choice." ha ha ha ha ha .... stupid...

  • sick

  • there are alot of freaks in this world.

  • WTF in utah mormon country no way they dont belive in this crap

  • This is friggin ridiculous!

  • Im sorry but these people are demented.

  • I agree. It's creepy!

  • im gonna mummyfied my cochroach

  • Great now I know were I can take grandma!

  • lol

  • lol...nice!lol

  • There they go again mummifying dogs, and to add insult build like Egyptian Pyramids. This is SACRILEGE! OPPOSITE PEOPLE

  • Americans... they dont know how to waste and keep their money.

  • and u really think people other then americans care about america LMAO what a shithead only an american would do that kind of shit because your all fucked in the head america is so poor you have to pay for healthcare pussies!!!

  • I bet you pay for healthcare to that might have something to do with your huge fuel taxes or maybe your huge excise taxes and income taxes. What is it that makes us poor? Is it the fact that our money is worth more than yours or that we export automotive labor to you because it's cheaper. In otherwords learn to read a paper once in a while, it may make you less ignorant...

    Douche Bag

  • That's just crazy!

  • "Ugh, I can't believe I spend my kids future education money on mummifying my dog!"

  • THAT FUCKING CRUEL!!!!!

  • what ever happened 2 RIP?

  • $25,000...THAT IS SOME PEOPLE'S ANNUAL SALARY. WTF? I AGREE WITH pablorainer, THESE PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE DONATED THAT MONEY TO A ANIMAL SHELTER TO HELP LIVING PETS!
