“Ask yourself why you should have a pet,” the entity channeled by a channeler told me.

“I do not want a dog. I cannot have a dog,” I responded.

“I will only become a slave to the dogs.”

Over the next few months, the words kept coming back to me. The entity knows something I do not. At one session, I asked him why he believed I should have a pet. His response was, “the dogs will fill empty spaces in your heart.”

I do not have any empty spaces in my heart, I thought, but nonetheless started looking online. After hours of it, I was going to give it up when I felt something pushing me to continue on. I continued and came across a pair of sisters, fox terrier mix with Chinese crested.

I emailed the rescue, expecting to have time to think it over, instead, hours later, the shelter called me back and told me she was ready to deliver them.

“But, don’t you have to check my house? Interview me? I am not ready for it…” the excuses ran through my mind. Instead, I heard myself agreeing.

They came, two young dogs, placed at a year old. Medium size, light brown and white in color. Ginger went straight to the backyard, took a stroll, came back in and came to me. Mari followed suit. With that, they adopted me.
