Dogs in Heaven?

Over the years people have approached me about running for various public offices in Pennsylvania, but I’m not allowed to.  The Pennsylvania Constitution says that people can’t be disqualified from running for office on the basis of religion as long as they believe in God “and a future state of rewards and punishments,” which I assume means you have to believe also in a heaven and a hell.  (See Article I, Section 4).


Now I read that the Pope told a little kid that heaven will admit dogs.  Just when I was starting to come around to thinking maybe heaven wasn’t such a bad idea, I find out that dogs would be there.  Pit bulls?  Rottweilers?  And if dogs, probably cats.  And what about my chickens?
