Just wow. I had a little dog born in 1985, that lived to be 18. This dog was born a year later. Her age is mind-boggling in dog years.
Our faithful companions all deserve a gentle easy end of life.
Sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss.
“As I tell everyone, if there is a Lord God who can make the heavens and the earth, then he certainly can have that Rainbow Bridge sitting there with all our four-legged family waiting for us when we arrive.”
I agree! If so, I’ll be greeted by an army of collies and shelties!
Interestingly, C.S. Lewis wrote (I think it’s in “The Four Loves”) about the possibility of our pets going to heaven.
I can see that. And, your answer is a wise response. The replies with invective are not wise. Each person is entitled to his or her opinion on the matter. The recent development in the country of wanting to finish off people with whom one disagrees is going to lead to bloodshed and folks better start realizing there are consequences to attacking people for little or no reason.
Indeed!
My B-I-L has great Danes. They are great. He just lost one and I said: Well you will get to see her again on “Rainbow Bridge”. I had to explain as he is staunch catholic. He said “no way” as pets don’t have souls. He said the beauty of dogs is that they are short lived and easy to forget. This former Catholic disagrees with him.
