A prayer request for dog lovers
Ellie:
Jassy, Have and will pray for you and your dogs.
We had a beautiful black Labrador.He loved to stand in the spray of sawdust from the chainsaw when my husband was cutting timber...quirky.....he had a wicked sense of humor...every Friday night he waited in the dark at the front of our house for a couple of guys who walked home from the pub late at night. We would hear a deep "woof, woof". Then we would hear "That (expletive) dog, he gets us every time.!" I know that dog laughed and smiled.
We do love them and they are such friends to us....
Peace to you...Ellie....

Jassy, I think God answers prayers concerning animals! One time about 15 or 20 years ago we bought some goats..We bought a male and a female..I loved the tv show "Moonlighting" the main characters names were Dave and Maddy so that's what we named the goats! Well it happened as naturally as could be in a few months Maddy gave birth to twins! (the vet told us that goats rarely have twins!) soon after they were born we saw that they needed special care..So we brought them in the house..Maddy just wouldn't take care of them!! People laughed at us for bringing the goats in!! Talk about the Beverly Hillbillies! :) in a while one of the babies started acting weird and just fell over and died!! So we concentrated on the other one...within hours that baby started doing the same thing...we gathered around that baby goat and put our hands on him and asked God to heal him and let him live! the little goat lay on the floor quite lifeless until we prayed for him...suddenly without warning the baby goat jumped to his feet and started jumping and running!! That was the funniest thing and the most wonderful thing for our children to see! Some friends were there and prayed for the goat with us..the children were so amazed saying how Good God is to listen to a prayer for a baby goat!!
As a side note...the baby lived in a box in the house until he was strong enough to get around, the kids wanted to name him Lazarus, because he was brought back from the dead..I said, "No, let's do like the indians and we'll name him according to his character in a few weeks! Pretty soon we had to watch him very closely because he would try to jump up and sleep on the couch! he got into everything and made all kinds of trouble...well I told my kids...the time has come for the baby goat to have a name and to move outside where the goats belong!! His name? Well as I was getting him off the couch for the 100th time..I said "You are nothing but a little Holy Terror!!" So it was decided..His name was Holy Terror and we called him H.T. for short!! hehe! True story...I promise!!
So YES! I believe God hears our prayers for those we love..even if it's an animal!!

Hi all
I left it for a few days before letting you know but on day after I posted Sarah, the one with hip problems was bouncing around like a spring lamb. Albeit it gingerly. And Jas the sick one was doing the same.
The problems are still there, especially now we are going into our winter. But I feel different and so do my dogs. That black cloud has lifted.
This whole situation got me back on my face before the Lord and made me sensitive to others again and what they are going through. Sometimes I get wrapped up in my own little world and forget what is going on outside. Then my little world gets threatened and God got me praying for everybody except myself this last month.
I am humbled that God saw fit to use my animals to get me to pray and ask others for prayer. And then He answered those prayers. I feel a great sense of belonging and warmth whenever I think of all of you on this forum. God bless you all richly and Roy, I am also praying for your Mastiff.
