"Wow, my dog who usually hates people, really likes you!" "You sure have a way with dogs!" "You make my dog play like a puppy! He never plays like that with me!" My gift (and that of my daughter, too!) is a psychic connection with almost any animal I meet. Its truly uncanny how even the fiercist most protective dog loves my touch after I let them sniff me. I obtain a dogs trust to scratch them on the back, behind the ears and, when the drop and roll, on the belly. I have never been bit, ever. I meet strange dogs everyday. Its rare we don't bond. If we don't is because one of us is having a bad day. Better days are coming.
