the trio
I love dogs. I forgot how much I love dogs. The past 3 days I have been dog sitting for some close friends of mine, and have been eating it up. They are an interesting trio, Bo, the biggest is a beautiful golden retriever who is super loyal and a tennis ball addict. Lulu, is a younger redish in color retriever who is affection crazy and who could probably power most of north phoenix where you able to harness her excess energy. Lastly (but arguably my favorite), comes in Vienna, a very aged but adorable dachund who's tail is in constant motion and who seems to absolutely adore me. I can't tell you how therapeutic their presence, love and affection have been. The only down side...Lulu's runs in her sleep which means that I get woken up several times a night to my side (and apparently her footrest) being raked raw as she twitches and growls at some phantom critter. My hear is full, and I'm a little bummed to be giving them back up . You sure dog's don't have souls? I'm no longer so convinced (:))

I don't know all the details of it all, but animals in heaven is a Biblical concept. I don't know if "soul" is right since I generally consider "soul" to be unique to people. But I think the beauty of animals is that they're not born in sin... they're raised by PEOPLE into it.
We just dog sat for one of our friends too and I felt emotional when he had to leave. They're such awesome friends. Definitely a gift from God.
:D
