Do dogs go to heaven?

There is no such thing as a 'bad' dog, just a 'bad' owner!

And as all dog-lovers know, hell is a place with no dogs...

If the lion will lie down with the lamb (the wolf will dwell with the lamb, I think) there's surely room for all the creatures?

And when those dogs meet Saint Peter at the pearly gates, he will greet them with a big smile and say how welcome they are; he'll show them all the facilities and explain gently that although the food is of an excellent standard, the cats had to have first choice as they had instructed Soop and Pheonix to send their orders on ahead.

The lion will lie down with the lamb, but the lamb won't get very much sleep... said Woody Allen!

From the way Heaven has been described - it sounds icky.

Well, I hope Woody Allen feels the same, as I'd rather not have him anywhere near my dogs......

Well, I really hope they do as along with all the people I would dearly love to see again my 'animals' various are certainly on that list as well. I heard a lovely story once about a Clergyman who had a very feisty Tom-Cat, who was at times, a bit much on the hissing/claw front, but nonetheless dearly loved. When this cat died the clergyman was heard to remark to a sympathetic friend, that he sincerely hoped that there was a corner of heaven especially reserved for a repentant Tom-Cat!! I hope so too.

That made me laugh out loud, just what I needed. I did not think that the Catholic church had a sense of humour but maybe I mixed with the wrong type of nun!

I wonder if dogs can be reincarnated?
Our little sweetheart border collie is nearly 11, and she might outlive me , or not. If she doesn't I hope to have another bc with her lovely nature, to remind me of her.

We had 5 dogs here for Christmas day - they all entered into the spirit of things, and behaved beautifully. Well, other than my adolescent cockapoo, who by 5 pm had enough of all these other dogs wandering around in his kitchen, and snapped at my sisters elderly westie. He is the naughtiest dog I ever shared my life with, and need to improve a bit if he is ever to be admitted into the place good dogs go. Still, he's a long time to learn, fortunately, as he has a lot to learn

There are no bad dogs, just bad owners! I think ALL animals go to heaven, what a poor place it would be without them I heard a story once about a Vicar who had a particularly 'cross/cranky' tomcat, and when this cat died, the vicar was heard to muse that he hoped that there was a small corner of heaven that God had earmarked for a repentant tomcat!! AL my dogs and cats will be waiting for me particularly my last little girl (dog) who died 12 days ago.

Oh dear, I'm clearly losing it, as I posted about the tom cat before!!!!

I'm not convinced there is a heaven, but if there is and dogs aren't allowed, I'm not sure I'd want to go there.
