"If you're not of a religion, back off I don't need any Athiest forcing their beliefes on me."
The ironic statement of the century.

God created animals as a part of his creative process in genesis. God created the animals and said they were good [genesis 1:25]. therefore, there is no reason why there could not be animals on the new earth..it is impossible to say definitively whether some of these animals might be pets we had while here on earth. we do know that God is just and that when we get to heaven we will find ourselves in complete agreement with his decision on this issue, whatever it may be.

NO.
The Bible says this;
(Ecclesiastes 3:19-20) For there is an eventuality as respects the sons of mankind and an eventuality as respects the beast, and they have the same eventuality. As the one dies, so the other dies; and they all have but one spirit, so that there is no superiority of the man over the beast, for everything is vanity. 20Â All are going to one place. They have all come to be from the dust, and they are all returning to the dust.

The Book of Revelations, and elsewhere in the Old Testament actually, tells us that the armies of heaven ride upon white horses.
So, there are horses in heaven.

Yes, I believe that animals go to heaven. I had a dream one night that I knew was from God. I was standing before Jesus and from behind His back He brought out my little kitty that I had as a young child. It is a long story about what happened, but I knew that God was showing me that she was waiting for me in heaven.

No, animals do not go to heaven because they have no soul. They also should not be rewarded like humans are because animals do not have responsibilities like humans do. If I murder my brother, I will be arrested...but if a dog kills its brother/child/whatever what is going to happen? nothing.
with that said...animals are still creatures of God and should be treated with respect

In Genesis God created animals. The question what animal are you going to be.

I have had dreams of my dead dog talking to me. I think animals do go to a better place just like humans.

They rot like the rest of us.
They would go to heaven before humans, though.

though many will tell you no, we just don't know. i mean really, since when did people pass animals in goodness? I'll tell you what I was told "you'll find out when you get there."
