The Municipality sends the project to port, area towards Pobbia. The costs are still to be defined, the inauguration in September LA SENTINELLA IN UN MINUTE
PALAZZO CANAVESE
The first dog cemetery in Palazzo Canavese will open, almost certainly in mid-September. The cemetery area for four-legged friends who pass to a better life will rise along the road to Pobbia, a hamlet of Azeglio, a few meters from the human cemetery of Palazzos and from the lake of Palazzo.
The mayor Silvano Signora explained the reason for this initiative: «The works started six months ago and should be finished by mid-September, then we will do the inauguration – explains Signora -. An area will be created in which everyone, from Biella to Ivrea and also from Turin, will be able to bury their four-legged friend, upon payment of a fee. The amount will be decided shortly. The animals, in full agreement with the ASL, which will provide the appropriate bags, will be buried on the ground, complete with a commemorative plate. We have planned a tree-lined area, and benches located throughout the area, in addition to the construction of a small house for the toilets. We wanted to create this particular type of cemetery a few steps from the other human municipal cemetery precisely to allow everyone to visit both their deceased and, after a few meters further in the direction of Azeglio, also visit their friend. on all fours. It is an extra service that we wanted to offer to all those who love animals and always want to commemorate them, as they rightly deserve, as is done for humans ». That of the canine cemetery in Palazzo Canavese is an absolute novelty and a very important sign of civility and respect for dogs, “which will thus find rest in an area where all those who have known the animal will be able to visit it”. Dogs will no longer be buried in private land, where, moreover, there are precise rules to be respected and not always possible, but finally they will have a dedicated area. Because if it is true that the death of a relative always leaves an unbridgeable void, that of a pet is no less. Those who love cats and dogs know how their absence can become a boulder for a family accustomed to that sincere and unconditional warmth. But if there is always a cemetery for people to gather in prayer to feed the flame of remembrance, unfortunately cemeteries for animals are rare.
