Like the old man in that old Twighlight Zone episode, if they don’t let my dog in, it ain’t heaven.

“Like the old man in that old Twighlight Zone episode, if they don’t let my dog in, it ain’t heaven.”

A good book on the subject was called, “Cold Noses at the Pearly Gates” Although I would not agree with 100% of the liberties he takes with this book, I would agree with him that our beloved pets were chosen for us, and God is powerful enough and loving enough to give them to us again in Heaven.

The death of your beloved pet can be one of the most heartbreaking losses you’ll ever endure. But recovery isn’t only about closure. You also want to know where your best friend has gone.

After the intense, unexpected grief he experienced following the loss of his own companions, animal lover and biblical scholar Gary Kurz set out to prove that there are indeed pets in Paradise. After devoting countless hours of research, he now shares his inspiring insights to bring you a richer understanding of animals and their souls. You’ll finally find answers to common questions about animals and the afterlife—and you’ll also get a 30-day devotional to help you work through your grief.

If you’ve ever loved and lost a pet, or if you know someone who has shared a special bond with a furry face and a cold, wet nose, you’ll welcome this amazing book’s reassurance that love and loyalty are truly eternal, and that someday, you and your pets will be together again.

Gary Kurz is a retired Coast Guard officer who served his country faithfully and honorably for over 30 years. He and his wife have a love for animals and a concern for others who share their love. He lives in Manhattan, Kansas, near Kansas City. Visit his website at www.coldnosesbook.com.

I think that that was the best episode I ever saw.

Of course, I’m a bit biased, because that’s the type of people I grew up around in the East Tennessee mountains.

They’re all but gone now though.
