Heaven by Nicholas Allan
While he is waiting for the angels to collect him, Dill, the dog, explains to Lily what he thinks heaven is like: lampposts to pee against, whiffy things to smell and bones everywhere - with meat on them! But, Lily completely disagrees, she thinks heaven is quite different. Luckily, they agree to disagree just in time for a fond, last goodbye.
