Anyway, our friends invited my husband to come to their pet store and bless the animals this past Saturday. Hubby thought the idea a little unusual, but I told him that St. Francis did it, so why couldn't he? Plus, what better way to tell people that God loves their animals . . . and them, too. A lot of people won't mind going to a pet store, but they won't come to a church, and so . . . off he went, down to St. Petersburg.
Hubby says he prayed over 75 dogs--and their owners. I'm thrilled. He did mention, however, that most of the dogs were of the three-pound variety, so I'm thinking that I should have grabbed one of my pups and taken them down there to show those folks what a REAL dog looks--and smells--like. Hubby also came home with some lovely spray cologne that makes Babe smell like baby powder. It's wonderful. :-)
Here's a video clip of hubby blessing the animals, Florida style. Enjoy!
