Now I can’t say for sure, but somebody once told me that the Bible states that only the souls of humans go to heaven.
No matter who or what you believe in, I think that that would lead us to have a far more different relationship with our dogs.
Whether you have grown up with dogs, only recently become owned by a dog, had Heinz variety mixed breed dogs, or one or more of the hundreds of pedigree dog breeds out there, we all know that they are all different.
What makes them all different ?
There has nearly always been a dog in my life and currently I share a house with four dogs, an aunt (kind of) , mother and 2 pups from our first and only litter to date.
Do they all differ from each other, hell yes.
Is that a result of genetic make up, socialisation, position in the dog “pack” I can’t say, but for me to think of them as being soulless is impossible.
By taking complete care of your dog in areas such as nutrition, exercise and veterinary care , we are looking after the basic elements of responsible dog ownership, but to really obtain the full benefits of owning a dog, I think it’s paramount that you connect with it’s soul.
If we treat our dogs with love & respect you can be sure that they will reward us by sharing their soul, and if you have taken the time to read this blog, I guess you believe the same.
