[Magdalen] Dog blessing query

[ME Michaud]

IANAP but if I were I think I'd thank the dog for years of faithful
companionship,
mention the fact that we see God's faithfulness so demonstrated,
(yay creation!)
and bless the person.

Years ago I knew a priest who was asked to baptize a stillborn baby.
To his credit, he always refused to tell anyone what he did,
whether he baptized or not.
Because either way, somebody was going to argue with him, I suppose.
