Do all dogs go to heaven as some say? The only thing I know about dogs in heaven is my dog is there now, waiting for me and my family.
I can’t make a scriptural case for all dogs going to heaven, but I can make a scriptural case for my dog—whose earthly body is buried in my back yard—waiting for me now in heaven, for I have asked my Father who art in heaven for this desire of my heart.
In John 19:26, Jesus said with God, all things are possible. Manifesting my dog in heaven falls under the category of “all things”, so of course God can do it. But would He do it?
Jesus said this:
“…whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.”
—Matthew 21:22
Having my dog with me in heaven falls under the category of “whatsoever”, so if I ask my heavenly Father for it, believing it, I shall receive it! Amen! The same can be said for any believer and for any prayer of the heart for that matter! Matthew 21:22 is a blank check. If you write out a check with the pen of faith, God must, and will, honor it and He will do so with joy and love!
But make sure to write out the check, for Jesus said this:
23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.
24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
—John 16:23-24
You believers with beloved pets, do you want your dog who has died (or will die) to be waiting for you when you get to heaven? Ask your heavenly Father for it, believe it, and He will give it to you amen! After all, will your joy be complete without your little (or not so little) buddy with you in eternity? Ask of the Father your heart’s desires so that your joy may be full!
“Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”
— Psalm 37:4
At the core of this question about dogs in heaven is your relationship with your heavenly Father. Jesus said you must become like a child to enter into the kingdom of heaven. Would a child believe God could and would bring their dog to heaven and give him an immortal dog body? Yes. Would a child hesitate to ask God to bring their beloved dog to heaven to be with them? No.
God loves us more than we can fathom. If your relationship with your heavenly Father is what it should be, if you treat Him truly as your Abba, if you ask and believe as Jesus said then the answer to the question about will you see your beloved dog (or dogs) in heaven is yes, yes, yes, a million times yes! And he (or she) will be in his prime for there is no death or decay in heaven!
What about cats? Do they go as well?
It is possible. If a believers asks the Father for it and believes it, then yes.
