Default Shot Shell Reloaders?

I was wondering if anyone here might be able to load some shells for me.
Here is the catch. And I'm not sure if it's too weird to ask. I have heard that some have had their pets ashes loaded into shot shells. I have recently put down my hunting dog of ten years. I was hoping to have some of her ashes put into a box of 12 gauge and a box of 16 gauge. (one for pheasants and another for ducks and geese.)mind you I dont know how many ashes there will be. I pick them up today...
If anyone is willing to do this please let me know. I of course am willing to cover all costs and am not sure on the legality of buying handloaded shells but if it is legal would be happy to pay for services as well.
She was an amazing friend and hunting partner and deserves another hunt or two.
A box of each would be great but if someone could do any, that would be very meaningful to me.

Thanks for looking.

RH

I see Cat has been in touch, so likely a bit late.
I can do 16ga for you, If your in Edemonton or area I will be down sometime in next few weeks and I will help you load them, I can bring sum bismuth and with you old friends ash as buffer, she can "go get em" one more time.
kind regards.

I would like to thank you all for your offers. Between losing Daisy and having our first child, it has been an emotional roller coaster of a spring.
I would especially like to thank the gentlemen that took me up on this request. It means very much to me that I get to again hunt with Daisy.

I participated in the SCI pheasant hunt this year with a fine group of people.
Pictured below is Daisy's first kill of the year. This picture is up in my office and reminds me not only of my first dog but also of the generosity of another hunter. Thank you again RH.
