 Amazing Little Book! June 21, 2006

Just yesterday, I had to put down my best friend of over 14 years. A very good friend of mine gave me a copy of this book that very morning, she knew how much this old dog meant to me.
I read it and even though I cried like a baby, it left me with a good feeling.
I recommend this book for adults even more than for kids... if you have ever or are about to lose your dog, it's warmth and simplicity make it very comforting and therapeutic.
I took it with me to the vet's office, and before the deed was done, I laid down next to my old guy on the office floor and read it to him, and told him how one day we'd be together again. I think he understood.
People can be transient, hypocritical, downright nasty and fleeting with their emotions and affections. The love of a dog for it's person, however, is possibly the purest, simplest and most honest love on this earth. Dogs are the kind of creatures that can make even the most skeptical believe in the existence of a higher power. Their love is absolutely unconditional and utterly faithful. God bless these beautiful, unique and wonderful animals... they abide...

The author wrote this God-blessed little book after having a wonderful vision of her beloved dog Martha in the arms of an angel; it turned her bereavement into inspiration. It should lift the heart and spirit of anyone who reads it. I would like to make several recommendations here since there is no category as of yet specifically on animal afterlife, on-line (or in any other lists for that matter). Because of this and the fact that there are so few books written on this subject, those in grief over the loss of a pet often find themselves desperately searching, and miss out. I would therefore like to list all the books that I know of dealing with afterlife of animals. Amazon.com has sites on all of them. You can visit each site to learn more on each respective title. "Cold Noses at the Pearly Gates".Excellently done:inspired compassionate, fully-Biblical "The Soul of Your Pet". Convincing, credible evidence regarding animals' existing after death.Interactions with pets that have passed on. Will defy skeptics. "Will I See Fido in Heaven?". Solidly Christian, inspired,loving. "For Every Dog an Angel". Angel stays with pup from birth, on. Written for children, adults will love even more. Wonderful! "Dog Heaven". For children; adults will enjoy as well "Cat Heaven" Children/adults "All Dogs Go to Heaven". Well-known, has a story-line.

I've purchased three copies of this book so far and am thinking about having a couple on hand for the occasion when someone has lost a beloved pet. It expresses beautiful sentiment and provides much needed comfort and hope. It's very appropriate for a family with children, but also is nice for adults, too. I highly recommend.
This is a wonderful little book May 9, 2001

If you have lost a special pet, no matter what your age, you need this book. Even though it is a children's book, it helped me find comfort in my grief over losing my special little guy. In the book, Christine Davis, describes the very special dog in your life as your "Forever Dog" and that you will see him or her again, along with all of your other pets, when you cross the angel bridge. I have bought a number of copies and given them as gifts to people who have lost their pets. Everyone has been touched by this absolutely wonderful little book.
A Simply Beautiful Inspiring Book for Grieving a Lost Pet May 12, 2000

I lost my ten-year old golden 1 1/2 years ago. She was not only my friend, but a part of my family. I miss her every day. If you feel you had a connection to your pet, this book will reconfirm those feelings. It gave me comfort and left me with a warm feeling in my heart about my lost friend. This book will make you smile and cry about the loss of your pet. The book is about the connection you have with your dog, and that not only do dogs have guardian angels, but they are our guardian angels. It is not a religious book, yet it will touch you deeply. I believe my friend is still with me, and now I know that I am not alone in that feeling. It made me smile, brought a tear to my eye, and comfort to my heart. A beautiful book.
