All Dogs Go To Heaven

Today Big Samson left this earth, in my arms, as is deserving of such a great and loyal friend. It was a very difficult day, needless to say.

You know, I've had people say to me, "This is why I don't get a pet." Well let me tell you, the few minutes or hours of heartache at the end of their life for us, is nothing compared to the joy and comfort they bring to us! They ask nothing, and in return give everything!

At the end I held him in my arms, and told him to say I love you to my dad who passed in 1999, and my yellow lab Sadie who died in 2009 at the age of 14. He will see them I know, because all dogs go to heaven.

I know this, because the great God who created them knows they deserve nothing less!
