I have a black lab/German Shepherd mix and a German Shepherd waiting for me.

They are indeed waiting for you. In the meantime they are frolicking about and eating choice dog food. It probably ain't Alpo either, possibly a thick juicy T-bone or ribeye.

BLEED. I'm sorry for you loss my friend and hate to burst your bubble, but no, there are no dogs or and other animals in Heaven. MAN is the only being that God gave a soul to. I'd like to see all of mine too. I'm on my 9th reading of the Bible and can't remember ever reading about any animals in Heaven. Hope I'm wrong. I had a long talk about this with a Pastor years ago, this was his opinion too. CHARLIE.

Hello Charlie :) Jesus rides a horse out of heaven, and in the place where we will be privileged to spend an eternity with God following the resurrection and judgment of all at the end of this age?

The wolf will live with the lamb, and the leopard will lie down with the goat; the calf and young lion and fatling will be together, and a little child will lead them. The cow will graze with the bear, their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox. The infant will play by the cobra’s den, and the toddler will reach into the viper’s nest. They will neither harm nor destroy on all My holy mountain, for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the sea is full of water. Isaiah 11:6-9

I now see oldehennew beat me to it :D(y):geek:

I've yet to see any scripture that supports animals have souls. Animals are referred to in heaven but it still requires a bit of imagination to think of that as any sort of evidence that animals have souls.

Mines an unpopular opinion (and that's all i, or anyone else here, have, opinions) because i think most people Want animals to have souls. And since there is no clear evidence people will interpret it as they wish it to be.

The Bible does not explicity say "Animals/Pets go to Heaven." However, there is alot of support that animals have souls and spirits. There is a lot of support presented on this site: https://www.rainbowsbridge.com/


(Job 12:9-10 KJV)
"Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this? In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind."

Job 12:10
In his hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind.

Revelation 5:8-13
"All creatures recognize Jesus as the Savior of the world and praise God right along with redeemed men.

Psalm 145:-9-10,13,15-21 AMP
Though all creatures are subject to man's cruelty, God loves all His creation and has made plans for all His children and the lesser creatures to enjoy His eternal Kingdom.

This verse is very convincing to me that God intends for pets/animals who have already lived and died to enjoy His Eternal kingdom. I do not believe this verse refers to "new" animals created specifically for Heaven. This verse is also drawing a stark contrast - though mankind treats animals like trash, God values animals and has created a special place for them.

I'm on dog number 3 in my life, dogs are family.....sorry for your loss. Maybe this will bring a smile, I found it funny. It's not real of course, these signs can be generated but that doesn't take away from the humor.

The code doesn't work, google "dogs go to heaven sign war".

Yes, of course. In her book, 'Within Heaven's Gates', Mrs Springer says a girl arrived in heaven before her family. She seemed timid when all of a sudden a favorite family cat of hers who had passed, ran and jumped in her lap. She was immediately joyous as others then came over to share in her delight. Some of us may of had closer pets than friends, and God would bless them with their beloved fur friends:love: and the pets would deserve it for being loyal companions.
