The headline read "Dogs in Heaven? Pope leaves Pearly Gate Open." To console a little boy whose dog had died the Pope said "paradise is open to all of God's creatures." So perhaps there is still a chance for our late Scottish Terrier, Bonnie Lass who departed this world ten years ago at age thirteen. The Vet who put her to sleep told us her ashes would be disposed of at sea whereupon a relative commented "My Bonnie lies over the ocean." Bonnie bonded to the family and snapped at everyone else so we have always thought she might be languishing in Purgatory. But now redemption may be at hand thanks to Pope Francis.
