LMAO at this thread! So I guess this means there really is a "Dog". Do you think he's laughting at this too?

If the Kingdom Hall were sold to Pentecostals ....new owner would learn to ....

Actually I had a charismatic dog once. I taught him how to heal. I would say "heal" dog, and sure 'nough, every time; he would sit down.

These are Jehovah's Witnesses we're talking about. They'll believe just about anything except that their organization is false.

OH, THE IRONY!

I thought the only stories they ever shared about dogs were the demon possessed ones who would do backward somersaults frothing at the mouth whenever the witnesses would call on the demon delving spiritualistic spooked out householder.

OR

What about the stories about the notoriously vicious dogs who would always bite postmen or passers by but would never bite the zealous pioneers....ooohhh....amazing!!!

Perhaps the dog would mistake Elder Whoever for a fire hydrant.

I actually heard that "experience"; at the last assembly I attended.

Aahh the memories. *sigh*

Y'all must have missed the update to that experience.

I heard that the dog and the blind guy took up playing tennis together after the meeting finished. Guess what resulted???

Endless Love.

More JW Dog Adventures

yb92 227-8 - One day one of the pioneers wrote a sermon on a leaf with a ballpoint pen and carefully placed it right in the middle of a well-traveled roadway. He walked a short distance away and stood concealed among the trees. He waited, curious to see who would pick up the leaf. To his surprise a dog came wandering along the road and paused to sniff at the leaf. "I think the dog could read," said the pioneer humorously, "because he started barking at the leaf. The dog became excited and made so much noise that a hunter in the bush nearby thought the dog had a possum or a lizard trapped up a tree. The hunter ran to the scene only to discover the dog barking and pawing at the leaf. He pushed the dog aside and carefully picked up the leaf. He spent a few moments reading the sermon on the leaf and then just as carefully replaced the leaf-message in the middle of the road.

jv 158 - Not all received the booklet graciously. Eva Abbott recalls that as she left the house of a clergyman in the United States, the booklet came sailing past her and landed on the ground. She did not want to leave it there, so she proceeded to pick it up; but a large dog growled, snatched it from her hand, and took it to his master, the preacher. She said: "What I could not deliver, the dog did!"

w92 1/1 6-7 There is no escape from the Kingdom preaching. An Italian Catholic used to get annoyed every time Jehovah's Witnesses called on him. So when his company transferred him to Singapore, he felt that at last he would not be bothered by them. But to his surprise, the Witnesses were there too. So he obtained two fierce dogs to attack the next Witnesses who came. When two Witnesses called at his home, out jumped those dogs. Terrified, the women ran for their lives, going in different directions at a road junction. As one of the dogs caught up with her, one of the Witnesses desperately grabbed two brochures from her bag and shoved them into the dog's open mouth. At this, it stopped chasing her, turned around, and trotted home.
The following week, the same two Witnesses were making a return visit at a house across the street. The dogs' owner was in his garden, and, surprisingly, he greeted the women and invited them into his house. He told them that he had never spoken to Jehovah's Witnesses or read any of their publications. But he had been amazed to find the brochures in the mouth of one of his dogs. That evening he had read the brochures and was really impressed with them. Although he had been a Catholic all his life, he expressed a desire to study the Bible with Jehovah's Witnesses.

There were so many JW dog experiences, I couldn't bore you with them all...but, I will say JWs do have double standards when it comes to dogs...

g74 9/8 27 - Even seemingly entertaining exhibitions of hypnosis on stage should give the Christian cause for reflection. Suppose a hypnotized person is told that he is a dog and then he senselessly tries to bark and jump about canine-fashion on his hands and knees. Is that not degrading? Surely it would not please or entertain a thoughtful Christian, who has deep regard for the Creator and knows that man was made "in God's image."-Gen. 1:26, 27.

So it's ok for dogs to act like JWs but JWs can't act like dogs?

"Every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday the dog was raring to go and
begging his(new) owner to get up and go. So finally the man followed the dog's lead, was brought to the Kingdom Hall and guided to a chair."

Isn't this encouraging folks! The new owner followed the dogs lead. I wonder how far the new owner lived from the hall?
Hopefully not over a mile or so. My how that new owner trusted his new dog.

Since the dog was accustomed to the old owners schedual of things he probably drove the new guy nuts.At 6:00 am the new guy is awakened by a barking german shepard reminding him to wake up and take his morning dump even though this new guy takes his dump at 7:45 am

I think the bottom line here is that Jehovah spirit was operating in the dog. Jehovah could have had a couple of witnesess knock on the guys door and start a study, but he chose the weird and odd way as it makes a better experience to tell.
