For a week a few months ago, we looked after the pet dog of my friends, Evelyn and Gordon. Chewy proved to be a great hit, apart from the night I had to take GV Boy to casualty,when in our absence she howled all night, much to the neighbours' annoyance.
Sadly, Chewy has had to be put down. The humans she lived with loved her, as did we. She'll be missed.
Here's the question. Do dogs (and cats, and all other pets/creatures) go to heaven?
Why would you doubt this GV? God gave us dugs to teach us about faithfulness and trust and unconditional love, so that those who do not know the meaning of Jesus know what we're talking about when we mention His nature!

So do monkeys (but not, hopefully, creationists ;-))

God promised that heaven's perfect. So I feel as confident telling a four year old there'll be train sets as I am there'll be dogs. Mostly labradors. And they'll have big open fields and balls, squirrels, seagulls and rabbits to chase too. It wouldn't be perfect without them :-)
