I do believe that dogs have souls, not like a human soul, but they have the ability to think, remember, show love, etc. I also know that God put the animals on earth for man's use, nut not abuse. Is there a heaven for dogs? I don't know, but I hope so, my Rusty was the bestand nost loyal friend a man could ever have.

No. A dog can be a little slice of Heaven here on earth through the joy they bring. Heaven is a place only of joy, no dog necessary.

Heaven is, I believe, incomprehensible to us until we get there. When we see God in full glory it will be like NOTHING we can imagine. So those of you that think heaven will b boring or not fun based on what the Bible says it will be like are not giving full credit to the awesomeness of the one that created everything. It will create a joy unlike anything or even close to anything we have experienced on this fallen earth. And the opposite is true of the other option. Happy birthday. The post does sound a little "I know and you don't because I'm holier than you."

Chapter and verse please. Exactly!
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

"Crediting the Awesomeness of God", can you elaborate on that?
I personally don't think we are going to care but I also don't think anyone is going to ruin their status to be there if they ask, "Where are the dogs?"

Well, considering God's covenant with Noah, I don't think either God or you will even think about dogs lol.

That said, if you wanted to see her as your Grandma Christ could make it happen already knowing the joy it would bring you.

Lets get deeper. What if someone who did you wrong found Christ later in life and is in heaven with you. And if you saw this person it would cause great grief. Is there a chapter and verse on this situation.

As an agnostic I don't necessarily believe or disbelieve organized religions' versions of the afterlife. I am curious about it though.
Do dogs and other non-human, higher-order animals possess enough cognitive capacity to be considered sentient beings? Are they self-aware? Do they possess a soul?
Do all humans possess sentience and consciousness to a degree that they should be considered sentient beings?
Eh...wot?

Is there a chapter and verse on this situation. That one can be found in the Lord's Prayer, "forgive us as we forgive." I don't know that what you stated would keep you out but it certainly would be reconciled before you roamed free to run into that individual if they were there. Mind you this is just a possibility.

look if it is the happy hunting grounds , we are going to need dogs.
now a different question.
do cows go to heaven ?
you see I don't think people want to think about something they eat as an equal or going to heaven , they just want to eat.
but dogs are food also for some.
when I worked on a farm as a kid I had a horse that was as friendly as a dog , he would come right over to me and follow me around , come see what I was working on his name was buddy and he was about 25 years old , had been the owners daughters but she was off to college.
and then Buddy got hit by a drunk driver.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

What most people aren't considering is that it's not just heaven forever. Heaven comes down to earth and earth is remade into a heavenly place. Most popular conceptions of heaven don't even begin to take this into account. We are talking a real place, not a misty dream on some cloud, strumming a harp.A real place with solid stones and jewels and water and animals, and everything that was good about earth. (well, apparently except for sex) And before someone says they don't want to go where they can't have intimate relations with their wife, consider being able to communicate love on a much deeper level than the physical. And think about what earth could be like with no hate, no fear, no anger, no death, no evil of any kind. All the good and none of the bad.
Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.
