Statue of a Molossian hound. Roman copy after a Hellenistic bronze original thought to date to the second century BCE; the muzzle and one leg are restorations. The dog sits and gazes up to the sky with its mouth slightly open.

We aren't the only ones to mourn pets, the Romans did too! They could be just as sad as anyone alive today when their dog died.

From poetic epitaphs to funerary monuments, beloved dogs were honoured by the Romans who cherished them.

a rusted, half destroyed sign which once read something like, "dogs must be leashed at all times". enough of the face and finish has rusted off that it now says, "dogs at all times".
