One thing is for certain: We love our dogs. They are wonderful creatures with golden hearts. Our dogs are there for us through thick and thin. Even when we’re cranky, our pups don’t mind. Our dogs’ compassion often overshadows whatever we’re going through. They lift us up, guide us, slobber us with kisses, and embrace us with cuddles. A dog’s love is pure. Their love doesn’t come with conditions or stipulations. Dogs are the epitome of loyalty and peace. That is why this epic poem written by Paul Harvey means so much to us and needs to be shared over and over again!

Harvey wrote ‘So God Made A Dog,’ and it brings tears to our eyes every time we read or hear it. Here it is:

“And on the 9th day, God looked down on his wide-eyed children and said, ‘They need a companion.’

So, God made a dog.

God said, ‘I need somebody willing to wake up give kisses, pee on a tree, sleep all day, wake up again, give more kisses, then stay up until midnight, basking in the glare of a tevelsion set.’

So, God made a dog

God said, ‘I need somebody willing to sit, then stay, then roll over. Then with no ego or complaint dress in hats they don’t need and costumes they don’t understand.

I need someone who can lift spirits with a lick. Somebody who, no matter what you didn’t do, or couldn’t take, or didn’t win, or couldn’t make, will love you without judgment just the same.’

So, God made a dog.

God said, ‘I need somebody strong enough to pull sleds and find bombs, yet gentle enough to love babies and lead the blind. Somebody who will spend a day on a couch with a resting head and supportive eyes to lift the spirits of a broken heart.’

So, God made a dog.

It had to be someone who would remain patient and loyal, even through loneliness. Somebody to care, snuggle, and nuzzle and cheer and charm and snore and slobber. And eat the trash and chase the squirrels. 

Cats As Live Bait to Choking Dogs: Why Wasn’t He Stopped Sooner?

Despite a history of violent behavior towards animals – including a widely circulated video showing his pit bull brutally mauling a helpless cat – this individual continued to harm animals without earlier intervention from law enforcement.

Somebody who would bring a family together with the selflessness of an open heart. Somebody who would bark, and then pant, and then reply with a rapid wag of tail when their best friend says, “Let’s go for a ride in the car.”

So, God made a dog.

Harvey’s poignant words couldn’t be more accurate. Dogs are heavenly beings sent from the Big Man himself. They are Earth-Angels who transcend everyone and everything. Do you love your dog? Do you believe your pup was sent by God?
