"Dog Heaven on Earth\nVermont Artist Stephen Huneck Pays Tender Tribute to Our Canine Companions\nDesigned by artist Stephen Huneck, the Dog Chapel, in St. Johnsbury, Vermont, is a place for \"people of any faith\" to celebrate the spiritual connection they have with their dogs. The Greek Revival building is reminiscent of the area's 1820s country churches.\nTwo of the chapel's visitors exit the dog door at the entrance.\nIn the foyer, guests encounter Huneck sculptures\u2014dogs and even a cat\u2014and an ever-growing \"remembrance wall.\"\nIn the main room, the pews, like the stained glass, are modeled after the artist's dogs. \"It was his desire that while sitting one would feel protected, comforted by the gentle goldens,\" says Gwen Huneck, the artist's wife. The walls are covered with more bereavement messages left by chapel visitors; next to a window hangs one of Huneck's flying golden retrievers.\nThe building on the couple's property that houses the artist's gallery has a 24-karat gold-leafed Labrador retriever weathervane on its cupola.\nPast Huneck's dog-head picket fence, Gwen Huneck and two of the couple's dogs enjoy a stroll along the road that winds to the studio."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
