Review # 1 was written on 2019-03-25 00:00:00 Adam Hibner Thanks to my Goodreads friend, Ann-Marie for suggesting this book to me! I read this quick story aloud for my little Papillon, Blondie, so she could hear the words!💖 Cynthia Rylant does a wonderful job in painting what "Dog Heaven" is like for young and old. I can see why children would love this and being an adult I was comforted! I read the Kindle version on my Amazon Fire device so the illustrations were extremely bright and cute. My favorite illustration was the dogs sleeping on clouds for their beds and turning around and around to find a comfortable position! Having just lost Blondie, yesterday -Sunday morning - March 24, 2019; less then 2 months shy of her 15 year birthday, I am grieving as all pet owners do and my side kick is no longer here but this book made me feel better! The grief is still there but this story made me think not just of my loss but of others too, like my Goodreads friend, JV who just this last weekend lost her dear Lucy!💖 It also made me think of Dogs without homes and they have a home in Heaven. I can not highlight in my Kindle but I enjoyed every colorful page of this book. Thanks again to my dear friend Ann-Marie and her suggestion of this story which is what I needed for this lonely Monday morning; alone for the first time in almost 15 years and my dear Blondie watching us grieve for her on Earth! God Bless you little good girl Blondie! You are greatly missed!💙💙💙

Review # 2 was written on 2008-08-26 00:00:00 Trevor Bates When our beloved mess of a dog died, this is what our vet sent us. 5 stars for the vet, 5 stars for that limpy dog of ours, and 5 stars for this book. Gave us a really great cry, fond thoughts and loud laughs of the big ol' lug of a one legged dog that was part of our family, and peace knowing that he's a pimp now, struttin' his stuff with a lotta bitches and fat healthy legs (the pimp cane is fo' show.) You go Turk!
