I loved this episode where an old man and his dog went raccoon hunting and died in a creek. He was saying he didn't have much time for God because he didn't think it was fair that he couldn't have his dog with him. However, Psalm 36:6 says, "Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your justice like the great deep. You, Lord, preserve both people and animals." Also, Isaiah 11:8 says, "The infant will play near the cobra's den, the young child will put its hand I into the viper's nest." Therefore, the angel in the episode had it right that your pets will be in Heaven.
Take care and God bless.

Interesting perspective.
