    Sorry, you are a victim of yet another unfounded rumor meant to disparage Jehovah's witnesses. Some may have dogs, some may not, and some may keep them in their homes, and some may not. Just like everyone else. It has nothing to do with Jehovah's witnesses' Biblical teaching about demons.

    Dogs as demons? Funny. You got that from a TV . Promo I saw too. Ridiculous fantasy to get viewers hooked. I do not even remember the program. It had such little effect.

    No. I personally do not want inside dogs. They smell, tear up things and dirty up the place. I am the only one taking that jib!

    Now other JWs do, just as non JWs so. That has nothing to do with religions. Sanity maybe, but that is a prejudice of mine. As long as I am in their homes and never have to clean up, I enjoy petting and playing with the dogs. As long as I can give them back when done.

    Pets have nothing to do with religion. Except fir snakes in a few religions. Gifts of healing died out with the last disciples if Jesus at the end of the 1st century. Putting God to the test by purposely handling or be bitten is forbidden by God. Question: Are such snakes considered pets? I am just assuming so.

    Apostates are like dogs returning to their vomit-that what you mean ?

    After learning Bible truths, how tragic it would be if one regressed to false worship! The Bible describes the sad consequences of such a course when it says: “Certainly if, after having escaped from the defilements of the world by an accurate knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they get involved again with these very things and are overcome, the final conditions have become worse for them than the first. . . . The saying of the true proverb has happened to them: ‘The dog has returned to its own vomit, and the sow that was bathed to rolling in the mire.’”—2 Peter 2:20-22.

    Most of the time they leave them outside. But when the dogs scratch on the door because they want to come in? That's funny, in an ironic way.

    I don't know, but people who leave their canine companions at the mercy of the elements don't deserve a canine companion in the first place.

    Lordy, lordy, I hope Toke doesn't see this. She'll beat me up hahaha =)

    No, JWs don't consider it demonic, however, some puppies can be demons behind the wheel . . .

    Demons live inside clones. Jesus died for all sins committed by all.

    Jesus said that you have to drink His blood.

    All people have soul, body, and spirit.

    In animals, blood substitutes soul.

    That's why you're forbidden to drink animal blood. Animals don't have spirit.

    You're forbidden to drink human blood (like during blood transfusion) because sins transfer.

    You're told to drink blood of Jesus (because He's sinless) so that your sins are forgiven.

    Dogs are not allowed in your home and your church because the Holy Spirit will leave.

    Supposedly, white magic helps people, while black magic harms, but, in reality, both cause harm. Casting spells is asking demons for help.

    Thoughts and dreams have 3 sources:

    1)God and angels,

    2)demons,

    3)yourself.

    Most thoughts and dreams are from demons.

    Demons never do good.

    Pray the Jesus prayer slowly always:

    "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner."

    To have normal sleep, pray to your guardian angel.

    Concerning any thought or dream, consult your local Orthodox Christian priest.

    Demons pretend to be ghosts and aliens. Don't go into a UFO to be healed by demons.

    If you're in trouble (demon "alien" abduction, about to be 666ed, sleep paralysis), then pray the Jesus prayer.

    Occult stuff (tarot cards, amulets, skulls, masks, talismans, barcodes, etc.) attracts demons. Barcode is Druid black magic curse.

    Get rid of all Occult stuff.

    Ask Orthodox Christian priest to bless your house. To break any curse, pray slowly the Psalm "the Lord is my light and my salvation" 40 times a day for 40 straight days. That's 1600 times in total.

    Antichrist will rule over the whole world except Orthodox Russia.

    There will be a Tsar in Russia to not allow this antichrist to rule in Russia.

    Antichrist is pale with red eyes and flies because he's possessed by Satan. 666 is given by isotope rays on wrist or forehead when people stretch hands to receive small plastic grey card (world passport).

    Police will microchip and isotope ray people on highways. Food stores will isotope ray people too. Antichrist will also release prisoners to mark people. Reject 666 at all cost. Go hide with Orthodox Christians to escape 666.

    Don't go into a UFO to be healed by demons. Those who reject 666 will go to heaven. Also, their direct ancestors will be saved from hell.

    Give to charity in the name of Archangel Michael.

    I keep my little Poodle inside my home.

    She is my "live doorbell". But she thinks she is one of the family.
