Wow, that is just a beautiful story, and so heart-touching, too ! Dogs are truly amazing animals, and I think that God made them with their kind hearts so they would be good companions to humans. It seems like , back through time , dogs have been the faithful companions and guardians of their human family, often risking their own lives to protect us.
Horses also seem to have this special kind of bond with people, and like, dogs, they have usually lived in a close relationship with their owners, and faithfully protected them. Most of the horses used in battle would be right there in the fight as they carried their rider into battle. and other horses have attacked wild mountain lions or bear to protect their owner when he was in danger.
I was reading in the "Book of Jubilees" (one of the "extra " books of the Bible), and it was talking about the creation, and one verse said that when Adam and Eve were made to leave the Garden of Eden, that the animals were no longer able to talk. This really made me wonder if, originally, mankind was able to freely converse with the animals ? ? Interesting concept.....
