Would it go to heaven because he hasn't sinned?
What about plants? They don't sin!

See, my doggy is dying, and I want to know if he will go live in heaven.

Every living thing has a soul
The latin word for soul is anima, and that's why those moving creatures are called animals.
The fact that plants can't change their location doesn't necessarily mean they cannot move, it only means they are planted.
The bottom line is that concepts like heaven and soul are not clearly understood, and are therefore misinterpreted.
And yes, plants, animals and bacteria go to heaven.
Not to the sky.
To heaven.
And you'll understand this too if you only knew what is really a soul and what heaven is.

Possibly, but because they don't share human culture, they may have their own set up for religion and society. So I would venture to guess that if they obeyed the laws of their society and were good by nature, then they would go to "heaven"
And to people who think that animals don't have souls, I wonder about them

Nope. The only reason an animal will be in heaven is if you ask God to put it there.

Heh, wow...Plants and animals don't have souls. One can't go to heaven without a soul.

Nope. They don't have souls. Gen. says that God created us in his image. this is taken to mean not only physical appearance, but the quality of having a soul/consciousness.
