The Watchers

Summerween Prompt: GRAVE

If you explore cemeteries, sometimes you will find dogs or sheep carved onto gravestones ( mostly for children )

It’s sad to say that most of the gravestones are very old- considering how how the mortality rate for children used to be, so there aren’t very many new ones and these older gravestones are fading with age.

The thing of it is, we put those animals there- the dogs, the sheep because of the religious significance and as far as dogs- for protection and companionship.
