Yes! ……… but … well, maybe NO. It depends on why you want to do it. I know that question sounds really stupid coming from an animal communicator. ALL animal communicators obviously love animals. They do, they surely do. So how in the world could […]

If you have read this blog before, then you know that I have a Chiweenie, Tucker, and a Chihuahua, Frida, and have posted about them not infrequently. I have to say, as a new “owner” of (though, in reality, it’s more like I’m “owned by”) […]
