I always figured if I passed before my golden retriever I’d spend time tossing balls and Frisbees in dog heaven until she arrived. She’s gone now waiting for me.
The ultimate reward. Living your afterlife with dogs of your choice. Heaven knows I miss my German Shorthaired Pointer. Keep waiting boy; It won’t be long now.
The Bible speaks little about this; but the Living Bible paraphrased translation of Romans 8:19-22 says “… all creation is waiting patiently and hopefully for that future day when God will resurrect his children … even the things of nature, like animals and plants, suffer in sickness and death as they await this great event.”
My old hound Mr. Duke passed Saturday morning. We read this and nine other comic strips every morning for eleven years. He now runs the Elysian Fields free as can be.
Rusty, our Dane Shepherd loves playing catch/fetch with a frisbee. Unfortunately he loves playing tug-of-war with the frisbee after he retrieves it. We go through a lot of frisbees. Tennis balls too.

If none of your past dogs come running for you at the Pearly Gates, you don’t come in.

Wiley, you DO know what halos were supposed to represent, don’t you? Definitely not frisbees to be chased by your dog – in Heaven or otherwise.

Are those people Frisbetarians?

Well, most dogs are in heaven now. Sadly some of them are in the other place.

That’s not my dog. He says, “You threw it, so you fetch it!”

That’s pretty much the only reason I would consider believing in an afterlife. We’ve enjoyed the company of so many wonderful critters.

If there are no dogs in heaven, I ain’t goin’
Masterskrain Premium Member about 1 year ago
As long as there are more Dogs in Heaven then modern “Christians”, I wouldn’t mind going there. The dogs are MUCH more honest and MUCH better company.

I just hope when I get there my dogs are still as happy to see me. You know. The vet and all that.

As my grandfather said, “If there ain’t no dogs, it ain’t heaven.”

When it comes to playing fetch, my dog just doesn’t get it.

If I believed, I would need asbestos cats and dogs. That’s alright, I’ll be in management, not shoveling coal.

Well, halos were invented by painters long, long ago to designate certains figures in their paintings as “holy”.
Night-Gaunt49[Bozo is Boffo] about 1 year ago
Halos don’t look like that except among cheap stage plays. Also angels are a very different species from humans.
