More Blessing of the Animals Links

I've been having a good time reading about the many blessings that have taken place around the USA this last week. I thought you might want to read a few as well. Only one person reported that a dog pooped in their church. Sounds like the pet owners needed a little coaching and maybe they should have read the hints and tips in Blessing of the Animals (ISBN 1402729677)!

Blessing of the Animals was mentioned in a well written article that appeared this month in Catholic Digest (PDF) the piece also has some great photos.
