Turns out the big and tough former Dallas Cowboy has a softer side. I had my 16 year old dog, Mojo, cremated upon his death a few years ago. He rests in a pine box on the mantle.

When my beloved Scruffy and Breezy die, I will have them cremated and when I die I will be cremated also. Our ashes will then be mixed together and scattered.

Unfortunately all of this animal concern is ripe for co-pting by PETA and the 'animal rights' extremist crowd. As a result we end up with laws that favor animals at the expense of human lives, health and property rights. Animals do not go to heaven. God created them to serve mankind in numerous ways and we can certainly be thankful for that and take care of them.
Christianity is our foe. If ANIMAL RIGHTS is to succeed, WE MUST DESTROY THE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN RELIGIOUS TRADITION." - PETER SINGER ("Father of Animal Rights"

To paraphrase Will Rogers, if my cats and dog don't go to heaven then I want to go where they go.

I can sure relate, we just lost our dog Louie several weeks ago to cancer, and last week nearly lost our other dog who has had bouts of pancreatitis and now has diabetes. We always say "no more pets" after losing one, it's so hard, but there's always another who needs a family.
Just about all of our pets have been rescues of one type or another. Louie was an hour from euthansia at the pound 3 years ago when he was bailed out by a friend who knew we would take him. He had a great three years until his recent illness, and was such a wonderful pet, can't imagine not having had him.

G-d Bless him for his loss, and more for his caring. I love my cats and will have them placed in a proper place.

I now have the ashes of 5 beloved animals in the bookshelf waiting until they will be buried with me.

I get sad and empty feelings just thinking about the time ahead when my dog will leave me.
I know it will happen but I try not to dwell on it and instead thank God for each day that he gives me with my furry friend.
