Pet Psychic Carrie Kenady Tells Dr. Josie What Her Dogs Are Thinking

00:00:08
Speaker 1: You're listening to in the Vets Office with doctor Josie Horshak. Hello.

00:00:16
Speaker 2: Everyone, Welcome to in the Vets Office. I am your host, doctor Josie, and we have Shannon here. Hello.

00:00:22
Speaker 3: Hello.

00:00:22
Speaker 4: I'm so glad we got a little, you know, sneak peak of your pets being here with us, and now they're here for a very important day.

00:00:29
Speaker 2: This is probably the episode I have been looking forward to the most. Okay, we have a pet psychic coming on.

00:00:35
Speaker 4: I am so excited for this because I think it's wild to get to get an inside look at what your pets are thinking.

00:00:43
Speaker 2: I know, and I'm a scientist by training, of course a engineerian, and so part of me is kind of like.

00:00:48
Speaker 1: Do I really believe this?

00:00:49
Speaker 2: But I do believe in the ability to communicate with animals.

00:00:54
Speaker 1: I'm so excited to see how it goes.

00:00:57
Speaker 4: You've never done this before, or never like been around a pet psychic.

00:01:00
Speaker 1: No, I have never done this before.

00:01:02
Speaker 3: I have.

00:01:03
Speaker 4: At my dad's farm, we actually had a psychic. I cannot remember her name, but I'll I'll look it up and get it for you for next time. But she came out to the barn and we had like fourteen horses. She spent two days with us, and she went through every single horse in that barn and the things that they were saying, which were valid that I was like, that actually makes sense. It was mind blowing to hear that they're like, I don't like having a window in my stall and I want darkness, and we're like okay, And it really was real. It's crazy that like they they have feelings too.

00:01:36
Speaker 2: They absolutely do. And I'm excited to see what she has to say. I've brought my two of my pups here today. I have Syah, who was a.

00:01:45
Speaker 1: Little staring at you right.

00:01:46
Speaker 2: She looks like a like a prairie dog. She's like just staring at me. She was a street dog in Mexico. My husband and Iron vacation in Siulita, Mexico. Just how she got her names, and she came up to us. She was so skinny, her nipples were like swaying in the wind. They were so big. I was like, oh my god, this little street mutt is so cute.

00:02:09
Speaker 1: She followed you everywhere, did she?

00:02:10
Speaker 2: Yeah?

00:02:11
Speaker 4: She followed us everywhere, and smart girl, she knew. She's like, that is a sucker right there. She's like she's going to take me home.

00:02:18
Speaker 2: And I looked at my husband, Cody, and I was like, we have to take her home. And he was like, Josie, we are not leaving Mexico with a dog, like we don't need a third dog. And I was like, okay, fine, fine, We'll take her home and we'll give her to my mom because my mom needs a dog.

00:02:33
Speaker 4: She was like, what part of we're not leaving Mexico with a dog? And You're like, yes, we.

00:02:37
Speaker 1: Are, uh huh, yes we are.

00:02:38
Speaker 2: Well he knows who he married, so lo and behold, we did leave Mexico with Sya and and she is so sweet, and she is so sweet and part of I guess it's not really a case of the week, but we'll make this our case of the week. Okay, we get her home and at this point we're definitely keeping her like it's over.

00:02:56
Speaker 1: He's in love with her. I'm in love with her.

00:02:58
Speaker 2: And I knew she was tired, and I knew she was a little bit underweight, and I just thought, Hey, this is because she, you know, is adapting. She's been on the streets for who knows how long, And so we take her into the hospital to spay her, and I realized that we didn't bring one dog home from Mexico.

00:03:16
Speaker 1: We brought home eleven. No, she was pregnant with ten puppies.

00:03:21
Speaker 4: You're like, that's why her nipples were saying, Yes, it's all adding up making sense now.

00:03:25
Speaker 2: Were you like, oh, how did this happen? Yes, I like, have my nurse. I was scrubbed in, So I had my nurse call Cody and I'm like, hey, we're grandparents, and so sadly, I know everyone's gonna ask. Sadly the puppies didn't make it. Saya did have a tick born disease, so the pups she wasn't very long, very far along, no, and she.

00:03:47
Speaker 1: Was very young.

00:03:48
Speaker 2: So in hindsight, it probably was for the best that she didn't have ten puppies and that you found her when you did, because yeah, that probably would not she probably wouldn't have made it too. So yeah, we're lucky to have found her for sure. And the other really interesting thing is she did have a swelling on her back leg and so when she was under for her spay, I was like, well, I'm just gonna check this out, Like, well, I'll cut into it and see if we can figure out what's going on there. And she had a big bullet lodged in her thigh muscle. Oh my gosh, I know, so kya, you sweet little girl.

00:04:21
Speaker 1: I know, this little angel. We got her through a lot.

00:04:23
Speaker 2: She's been through so much and she really we always joked that she hit the jackpot, but I think we hit the jackpot just as much as she did.

00:04:29
Speaker 4: No kidding, Thank goodness, you guys, Like it's crazy right place at the right time. Yeah, of what, because like she'll probably be one of the best dogs you ever ever ever have. Yeah, we've had her for three years now, and my husband, who didn't want to bring her home, tucks her into bed every single night, like puts her head on a pillow, like calls her his pretty, pretty princess. I'm like, jeez, like, oh my god, we've really done a one to eighty year guy that was like, we're not bringing this dog from Mexico exactly. Asking for someone who maybe is going to go on vacation soon and see a sweet little dog like Sie. What's the process of bringing them home? It's a lot easier when you're a veterinarian. Okay, So I'll call you if I find Yeah, you call me cutie, Yes, call me.

00:05:12
Speaker 2: I actually got was able to get in touch with a vet down down in Sayulita and we kind of tag deemed it and got her vaccinated and quarantined for a few days.

00:05:22
Speaker 3: That.

00:05:22
Speaker 2: No, it's not the easiest thing in the world. I will say it was COVID too. So when we were coming through customs, right, I had her paperwork filled out, but they didn't even really ask me, like do you have anything to declare. I'm like nope. They're like okay, and they just let.

00:05:34
Speaker 1: Me go right through.

00:05:34
Speaker 2: Wow, well, listen to this government. Please don't come out for me.

00:05:38
Speaker 1: Don't come for me.

00:05:39
Speaker 4: I could fill out her paperwork and she's got all the vaccinations and all the things.

00:05:43
Speaker 1: She's legal, she has her green card, she has a green card.

00:05:46
Speaker 4: And see I say that, but like, my husband is definitely not like You're like, he's the guy that would be at the hotel room door being like, hey, I found this really cute puppy and can we please bring it home?

00:05:55
Speaker 1: And I'd be like, oh, what are you doing.

00:05:57
Speaker 2: There's always one in the relationship.

00:05:59
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's definitely the one in ours for sure.

00:06:01
Speaker 2: All Right, Well, Sia, I'm so glad that you are here with us tonight.

00:06:04
Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear what she has to say.

00:06:06
Speaker 2: I know, I'm really really excited. I feel like that's a great backstore. I'm interested to hear if she'll give us any insight info on what her life was like before we brought her home.

00:06:17
Speaker 1: No kidding.

00:06:17
Speaker 4: All right, Well we're going to get to that in a second. But we have some really great questions from fans that have sent in for you to answer.

00:06:24
Speaker 1: Perfect.

00:06:24
Speaker 4: Hey, doctor Josie, So my cat really likes to go outside unattended.

00:06:28
Speaker 3: Is that okay?

00:06:29
Speaker 2: I think I speak for all veterinarians when I say if we could have all of our cats be in door only, we would, right, that's the preference.

00:06:37
Speaker 1: We see so.

00:06:39
Speaker 2: Many cats that live outdoors that get terrible wounds or infections. They're getting beat up by coyotes, raccoons, bobcats, cats, usually other cats in the neighborhood.

00:06:51
Speaker 1: They're all beating each other up.

00:06:53
Speaker 2: And there's contagious diseases between cats, so they can get a leukemia virus, and they can also get an FIV virus, which is like almost like.

00:07:04
Speaker 1: Aids and cats.

00:07:05
Speaker 2: And so when they interact with each other and they bite each other, they share food and water sources. They can contract it that way and it really you know, can be life threatening. So indoors only would be my strong preference. I would say, if you have a cat that likes to venture outdoors, getting them like a cadio is really cool. I think those are super cute. Putting them on a harness is really adorable. And then just making sure you have them on the fleeteck and heartroom prevention because fleases love cats.

00:07:34
Speaker 4: Yeah, and see I always grew up with cats in the barn. Like we didn't have cats in the house because my dad was allergic, but he was like, all allowed them in the barn, but it is so important to keep them up to date on everything. Yes, and we always like they stayed in the barn and there was no way for them to get out or anything else to get in at night, so they were safe and not you know, there was a cat from you know, the neighbors that did come over and gift us with kittens, so we were like, this is our reminder for everyone to get your cat spade. Also, yes, before it's too late, bay and neuder them if they're going to be outside.

00:08:05
Speaker 2: Definitely, spay and neuter them. Please please, please please do that.

00:08:08
Speaker 4: And we have a cat that loves to he wants to go outside, but he I'm like every time he runs out, I'm my buddy, you.

00:08:15
Speaker 1: Will not survive out here. I don't know why you're trying to do it.

00:08:18
Speaker 4: So we have a lovely screened in porch and he spends his whole day out there.

00:08:21
Speaker 2: So there's alternatives. That's perfect. Yeah, that's perfect. Yeah, like gives them a happy medium of for sure, they feel like they're outside, but they're not going to get beat up by the tom cat down the street.

00:08:31
Speaker 4: Yeah, Murphy would get beat up, for sure, he would. He wouldn't make it all right. Next up on our questions, what do we get.

00:08:36
Speaker 1: Hey, doctor Josie.

00:08:37
Speaker 3: So my dog pulls me so.

00:08:39
Speaker 4: Hard when I walk her on a leash, Like what should I do?

00:08:43
Speaker 2: So? I hear this a lot from owners, and being an owner of I've had many big dogs. I had a Great Dane and now I have a German Shepherd. Sometimes you can feel like you're water skiing behind these guys. They're just pulling you down the street. If that's the case, A work with a trainer, of course, but when it comes to leash walking, it usually ends up being like tug of war, like whoever's strongest is gonna win, and nine times out of ten it's the dog. And so I really like to put them on a harness. The harness I really like is called the easy Walk harness. So if you attach the harness on their back, just like a regular harness, again you're just playing tug of war. But this harness in particular attaches in front on their chest and you look at it and you're like, how and the heck are these two thin little straps going to keep my dog from pulling me? It looks like it's not going to do anything, but it is amazing. When they pull you, it like redirects them back towards you. So it's a game changer, hands down. I would not like my big dogs walk amazing on it. And you can get on Amazon Easy Walk Harness. This is like an easy Walk Harness commercial right now.

00:09:47
Speaker 1: It is not an ad. This is just from pure experience.

00:09:50
Speaker 4: I have a harness for our dog, co who's German Shepherd like you said, mix, and she is just like always in a hurry to get somewhere and the harness I have, I do clip it in the front, but it doesn't quite work the right way. So I'm like, I will definitely be looking up one of those harnesses.

00:10:05
Speaker 1: For our dog. Yeah. It's a total total game changer.

00:10:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, all right, easy walk, easy walk harness, got it all right. They saw them at all the pet stores too, So if you're like, I'm not really sure what size, you can take them into the pet store and they'll get them get your pet fit awesome.

00:10:20
Speaker 1: All right.

00:10:20
Speaker 4: Well, I am so so excited for this because I cannot wait to hear what your pups have to say and what they're thinking right now, because they look.

00:10:26
Speaker 2: Pretty chill, but yeah, they're sure they have stories to tell. Yeah, I'm I'm so excited. Today in the VETS office, we have Carrie Kennedy joining us. Carrie is a pet psychic and medium, which I did.

00:10:38
Speaker 1: Not realize there's a difference.

00:10:39
Speaker 2: We'll have her kind of doll that and she's been featured on Discovery Plus and the Travel Channel and she's going to do a reading with both of my dogs here today and then if we have time, she's gonna hopefully be able to communicate with one of my dogs that passed away recently as well, so should be great. Oh my goodness, get your tissues. I am.

00:10:58
Speaker 4: I'm so excited for this though, and I think it is just such a special experience for you and your dogs too.

00:11:03
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, here we go.

00:11:08
Speaker 2: All right, Carrie, welcome to in the VETS office.

00:11:11
Speaker 1: We are so excited to have you here.

00:11:14
Speaker 2: Carrie is a pet psychic and a medium, and I was telling the listeners that I didn't realize there was a difference between those two.

00:11:21
Speaker 1: Do you mind describing what the difference is.

00:11:24
Speaker 3: I don't mind at all, and thank you for having me. So any medium can tune into anybody, any animal or pet on the earth, sorry, any pet or person on the other side, Psychics are not always mediums, but I am a psychic medium, so that means I can tune into people and animals on the other side.

00:11:42
Speaker 2: So when you see the other side, those that have passed away, yes, correct, okay? And can mediums always talk to animals and humans or is it special that you can do both?

00:11:55
Speaker 3: I think we all have the ability to do this, but I've developed it so that it is my specialty of doing pet and people mediumship on the other side.

00:12:04
Speaker 2: Wow, I think that is so amazing. Cannot wait to hear what you have to say. How old were you when you realized you had this ability?

00:12:13
Speaker 3: Thirty two and I'm forty seven. Now, I'm not in forty six. I'm not forty seven years whoa mart I'm forty seven. Yeah. So I always knew I was intuitive, Like I used a channel poetry and stuff when I was younger, and I'm a writer, and I started writing in my journals, you know, when I was twenty, and my handwriting started changing because I was a creative writer, so I'd write a lot, and so that was called automatic writing. I didn't even know what that was at the time. Writing it started freaking me out because everybody was like, you know, tell Sarah, and my paperwork is underneath the bed and it's you know, will relate or whatever. And so I freaked out and I threw my notebook across the room and I was like, nope, I'm nope, nope, nope, I'm not going to do this. It scares me. And then fast forward to thirty two, my uncle died. He was like a dad to me, and he was also very psychic and intuitive. He was actually a Methodist minister. He always joked that God had his email dress. They were very in tune.

00:13:16
Speaker 2: I love that.

00:13:17
Speaker 1: Yeah. So he crossed.

00:13:18
Speaker 3: Over and the next day I was crying in my room and I was like, okay, I know I can hear you. Can you please just tell me you're okay? And I heard yes, I love you, and that just kind of opened up everything, and I started doing people readings. The more I did those mediumship readings, the more pets kept coming through. I was talking to one lady and she's like, well, I was like, would you've got a yellow bird on your to your right shoulder. I was like, who is that? She started crying. She's like, I've had the yellow bird for twelve years, so wow, that was my pet who's now on the other side. Yeah. So at that point I was like, okay, I think I need to be giving these messages to people. Yeah. Yeah. I was also talking to my friend. He was also named Carrie, and I was like, are you pregnant? She's like no, but I just had a miscarriage. And I'm like, well, who's NONI? And she said, well, NONI was my great grandmother. And I said, well, NONI has her and she's going to send her back in four months, and then she got pregnant four months with her daughter.

00:14:15
Speaker 1: I have goose bumps. Yeah.

00:14:18
Speaker 3: So at that point I was like, Okay, yeah, I'm supposed to be giving these messages. How I don't know, but you know, the people mediumship just evolved into mediumship.

00:14:27
Speaker 2: So that is so special and it's amazing that you can give people that. It's such a gift, I think. So I'm glad that you answered the call.

00:14:36
Speaker 3: Yeah, me too.

00:14:37
Speaker 2: So we were talking a little bit before we started recording, and we're gonna have you do some readings on Sia and Biggie that are here, which are my two of my little rescue dogs. I do have a third dog at home, but as I said before, I would be chaos to have all three of them here. And then I do have a dog that was really special to me that passed away a couple of years ago. So we had talked about maybe doing an angel reading for her as well. And all that you need for that is a picture.

00:15:04
Speaker 3: Right, absolutely, and that's all I need.

00:15:06
Speaker 1: Okay, very good. Well, which of these two?

00:15:10
Speaker 3: What are you thinking?

00:15:10
Speaker 1: How should we start?

00:15:11
Speaker 3: Let's talk to Siah first.

00:15:13
Speaker 2: Okay, so she.

00:15:17
Speaker 3: Is six years old, right, what I'm feeling.

00:15:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, So before we started recording, Carrie asked me, how old do you think she is? And I said, well, you know, I rescued her. I think she's around five, and Carrie said I'm getting six and I said, okay, that makes total sense. And then you said I think her birthday is May fifth. Yeah.

00:15:35
Speaker 3: She told me Sinco de Miles her birthday.

00:15:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that is so crazy because that's what we have been celebrating at home for since we got her.

00:15:42
Speaker 3: I love it, and she's very excited that you celebrate her birthday. So that's like one of her favorite memories, just so you know. Okay, Yeah, she does not like water. Did you know that. I did know that. Okay, she hates water. She's like, tell my mom, I hate water.

00:15:56
Speaker 2: Okay.

00:15:57
Speaker 3: And is there a white swimmy white dog? Is there a white dog?

00:16:00
Speaker 2: Yes, that's Oakley Arthur dog at home.

00:16:03
Speaker 3: Yeah. She's not so sure about Oakley. So she's a little bit jealous of Oakley. Does that make sense? Yeah? I can see that, okay, like warming up to Oakley, but not quite there. These two, though, they love each other and Siah, Sia and Biggie. They absolutely adore each other and they're like they feel very funded to me. Somebody just said, rabbits. Do you have rabbits in your backyard?

00:16:30
Speaker 2: Wow, that's so funny. We have, Yes, we have rap rabbits and squirrels. And Saya loves squirrels and rabbits.

00:16:37
Speaker 3: Yes, they love to chase them. Okay, Sia, she's so relaxed right now. So what I did earlier, she came to me and she was reversed sneezing, and so I gave her Reiki energy healing moan, I guess brand of energy healing, and she stops sneezing, and I kept telling her, you're safe, You're safe, coach. She does that because she doesn't. She feels anxious a lot. She has anxiety. I'm sure you know that. But she stopped the reverse sneezin as soon as I did that, So that's pretty cool.

00:17:06
Speaker 1: That's amazing.

00:17:07
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's very chill right now. Obviously, do you need me to get her perked up for you? Hey, I take them here. She's like, I'm sleeping during this reading. This is a great. She just showed me horses, you what is that does she go around horses? What does that mean?

00:17:21
Speaker 2: Yes, I have an older horse, he's twenty four. Oh wow, yeah, his name is Timmy. So we go out to the barn and she runs around, yes, around the horses.

00:17:30
Speaker 1: She loves it.

00:17:31
Speaker 3: Oh yeah she does. That's like her other favorite memory. And are there chickens there? Or do you give her chicken?

00:17:37
Speaker 1: There are chickens there.

00:17:39
Speaker 3: Yeah, she loves to see the chickens too. Okay, she probably wants to eat them.

00:17:43
Speaker 1: That's so cute.

00:17:43
Speaker 3: Loves to see them.

00:17:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, she likes to chase them.

00:17:46
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's super happy, like she could not be happier for sure. Yeah. Did she eat a fly or like chase a fly?

00:17:54
Speaker 1: A fly? Probably not that off the top of my head.

00:17:57
Speaker 3: She said it was like a year ago. She's like, yeah, there was a fly there. So let me let me scan the rest of her body and see how she Tommy's a little bit upset. I would say, like two out of ten upset. Nothing to worry about. I mean your vet. Yeah that's okay, Yeah, you get it more than I do. But yeah, and then okay, and then she's got a little bit of pain towards her tailbone on the left side on that muscle. That makes sense, and then it's kind of shooting down into her left hip. Okay, it makes sense to you.

00:18:31
Speaker 2: That is Actually I was just telling the listeners this is crazy because you were not here for this. But she had a bullet in that and her thigh muscle and her left leg.

00:18:43
Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:18:43
Speaker 1: Probably, Yeah.

00:18:44
Speaker 3: I wonder she has anxiety. Yeah, you and so many pets I talked to have severe anxiety, severe generalized anxiety disorder. As you know, it's an epidemic in our country, just like cancer. So I would love to know what do you do to treat her her anxiety anything?

00:19:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean she I wouldn't say she has generalized. I think it's more situational in her case. But you're right, I see a ton of generalized anxiety disorders and our pets. She's not to the point where it's like, oh gosh, we need to do medication. But we do a lot of like positive reinforcement with her, and it's helped. Yes, we do the thunder jacket.

00:19:22
Speaker 1: She's really of.

00:19:23
Speaker 3: Work for you, because that's so many people tell me, yes, no, it doesn't work. I don't know.

00:19:27
Speaker 1: It does work for her.

00:19:28
Speaker 2: Her A lot of her anxiety stems around like loud noises, which I guess she got shot, so that makes sense, makes sense. So I find that, like with fireworks and thunderstorms, that does make a big difference.

00:19:39
Speaker 3: Yeah, and are you a fan of CBD oil because I tell everybody about it.

00:19:43
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, I like CBD for the longest time. As vets, we couldn't really give it our blessing, but I have had a lot of patients respond really well to it.

00:19:53
Speaker 3: I tell everybody about honest pause. Okay, they should pay me for it, but they don't. But I but my dog has severing and honest pause, it's the it's called calm. It's peanut butter and oil in a jar, and it's fantastic, Like it really helps this anxiety so perfect. Highly recommend.

00:20:09
Speaker 1: This is not an AD. And this is not an AD. All right, Well we'll have to try it.

00:20:13
Speaker 3: Py me after this, but no, it's.

00:20:14
Speaker 1: Not exactly honest pause, give us a call. Yes, that's amazing.

00:20:19
Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:20:19
Speaker 2: One thing I would love to know about her is and I know you don't like to know too much, but she was in Mexico when we found her.

00:20:26
Speaker 1: She was on the streets.

00:20:27
Speaker 2: I just like did she tell you anything about her life before we adopted her.

00:20:31
Speaker 3: She's saying a lot of people actually feed her, so that's good. She was very thirsty, she said, and she had she had bugs, and so you helped her with the fleas and the bugs and the means. Right.

00:20:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, she had a tick born disease when we adopted her, so that makes sense.

00:20:47
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. Yeah, she said, I've come a long way, and I'm so grateful that you got me because I wasn't going to survive. Yeah. Oh yeah.

00:20:56
Speaker 1: I can't cry on this podcast, but I might.

00:21:01
Speaker 2: That's okay.

00:21:01
Speaker 3: I'm used to that. So if you need to get it out, that's you know, that's how you heal. That's how we heal them too. Yeah. I love that she is your little healer too. Do you get anxiety sometimes?

00:21:11
Speaker 1: Yes? I have terrible anxiety.

00:21:14
Speaker 3: So yeah, so she helps to heal your anxiety. So let her up here. We carry our fear in chest stomach, right, so let her up there. Look at them there, just bonded.

00:21:25
Speaker 2: So they love each other, they really do. And he's a little picky, so he is very picky. What are you feeling with him?

00:21:48
Speaker 3: My baby? Okay, biggie, can I talk to you, biggie? I always ask permission, hie. Yeah, okay, bottom right gums are sore? Okay, dental extraction or something there, like it needs to happen. I don't know.

00:22:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, he is due for a dental. He has heart disease. Oh baby, So I am weighing the pros and cons of putting him under anesthesia to do it. But that makes sense. He is definitely due for a dental.

00:22:20
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, and he's seven, so most bets don't put them under when they're over What twelve is that?

00:22:26
Speaker 2: Yeah? You know what kind of depends. I always tell my owners. It's like I'm out of here. I always tell my owners. You know, age isn't a disease. Every dog is different. So if they're twelve and they're totally happy, then that's not a reason not to put them under. But of course we want to make sure we do like all of our due diligence beforehand.

00:22:43
Speaker 3: Of course, he's actually saying, not be okay with that, like it hurts pretty bad. I would say, like seven out of ten pain on that bottom right side, So uh okay, let me see what else? Just go Actually, yeah, same back left hip. It's a little bit sore. Uh, that's weird. He just said elephant. Do you have like an elephant, chuch key or do you love elephants?

00:23:06
Speaker 1: An elephant? No, I'd have to think about that.

00:23:10
Speaker 3: Maybe you all were elephants in your past lifetime. I don't know that.

00:23:13
Speaker 2: Maybe it's possible. I feel like he could have been an elephant. He's so tiny, but he's got like the biggest heart. He does.

00:23:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then he's very protective of you. He goes into every room you go into. Right, he's your little shadow.

00:23:26
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah.

00:23:27
Speaker 3: I mean that's the ultimate compliment, you know, as you know, for a dog to do that. They protect us too. In the bathroom, sorry, in the bathroom, they protect us. Did you like wolves protect their other wolves when they're going to the bathroom. Okay, that's what they That's what dogs do for it.

00:23:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, I cannot go to the bathroom without him.

00:23:48
Speaker 3: Same right at my feet, right, same, my dog, my dog, and my two cats are all like, this is my tribe. But thanks guys.

00:23:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's amazing. I guess it is like very animalistic in the sense of like protecting their person. Oh yeah, when you're at your most vulnerable in the bathroom for sure. Yeah, anything about his life. I adopted him when he was gosh, it's been also maybe about four years now getting any sense of what his life was like beforehand.

00:24:19
Speaker 3: He showed me a lady he was not happy. He's saying that she was a smoker like inside, and that really hurt him, Like he hated the smell of it. Did you know that?

00:24:29
Speaker 1: Or yeah?

00:24:30
Speaker 2: I knew that he had an elderly woman as his owner previously.

00:24:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, he loved her because he grew to love her and they bonded. But he didn't feel healthy when he was there. He didn't get good food either, And now he's grateful for his good food that you give him.

00:24:44
Speaker 2: So, yeah, he's lost about ten pounds since I've had him.

00:24:48
Speaker 3: That's amazing. Do you have him on.

00:24:49
Speaker 2: Fish, yes, yeah, salmon, he loves salmon, salmon flavored kibble every once.

00:24:55
Speaker 1: Yeah, he loves it like d Yeah, pray or prop plan yep.

Speaker 3: Yeah. And did you get them like a Christmas stocking, Christmas presence? Yeah, because that's what he's saying. He's saying, thank you for that. That's like my favorite thing ever. And then you celebrate birthdays too, right, Yes, okay, because that's also their favorite memory. They're very grateful for that. He loves his birthday. Okay, good to know. I'm like, am I overdoing this?

00:25:38
Speaker 1: So okay? I love it?

00:25:40
Speaker 3: So many pet parents do it, so okay, And I tell everybody that that's one of their favorite memories. Especially when they talk to me when they're crossed over. They always bring that through as one of their favorite memories, like thank you for celebrating me, thank you for making me a part of your family.

00:25:54
Speaker 1: Amazing.

00:25:55
Speaker 3: Yeah?

00:25:56
Speaker 1: Does he?

00:25:57
Speaker 2: I mean he has pretty significant heart disease. Do you Does he give you a sense of like understanding that or feeling like limited in any way?

00:26:05
Speaker 3: No, he knows that, but he's like, I'm good, like I don't see him going any tom soon. And I can't say when that is. I can feel when they feel really bad. He doesn't feel that bad to me. He feels fine. He's a trooper. He's very optimistic.

00:26:18
Speaker 2: Good because I need him to live for another one hundred years. I know, right, all of our dogs, right, that's amazing. I love that so much.

00:26:26
Speaker 3: Anything else you want to say, she's very happy. Both of them are very happy. They're talking about a black dog and a white dog or those neighbor dogs that.

00:26:38
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have a black that is so crazy. We have a black and white doodle brother sister that live in the backyard that.

00:26:45
Speaker 1: Butt up to our yard.

00:26:46
Speaker 3: Yeah, they want to play with them.

00:26:47
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, playdate. Good to know, all right, schule this mom? That is crazy?

00:26:53
Speaker 3: Yeah? Ice cream? Did you give him dog ice cream?

00:27:02
Speaker 3: Okay, so they love it. Okay, and I have so many dogs, you tell me that. But they have dog ice cream now like frosty pas and also Ben and Jerry's like pumpkin flavored ice cream.

00:27:11
Speaker 2: I'm fully aware. I cannot control my husband. He goes rogue.

00:27:15
Speaker 3: You can't do Oh god, I can't control these men, can we? No?

00:27:19
Speaker 2: That's so funny. Okay, I'll have to let him know. Now he's gonna be like, see, they.

00:27:24
Speaker 3: Always tell me they love vanilla ice cream or you know, like frosty pas or dog ice cream.

00:27:28
Speaker 2: So yeah, okay, I'll have to get the good stuff.

00:27:30
Speaker 3: Then the good stuff. Amazing.

00:27:33
Speaker 1: Do you wanna do an angel reading?

00:27:35
Speaker 3: I would love to.

00:27:36
Speaker 2: Okay, So I need to show you a picture. Yes, do I give you her name or how does that work?

00:27:42
Speaker 3: All I need is her name and how old she was when she crossed over?

00:27:46
Speaker 2: Okay, let's see here. Her name was Luca Lucca.

00:27:52
Speaker 3: That reminds me of this. You're probably not old enough to know Susie and Vega. No, my name is Luca.

00:27:58
Speaker 1: Oh but yes, I know that's on this that was from there. And how old was she?

00:28:04
Speaker 3: And she passed? She was eight?

00:28:06
Speaker 1: Okay, wow, this is her?

00:28:08
Speaker 3: Thank you? Oh my gosh, so beautiful, all sweet baby. It's funny she looked older than eight. Know her face? Okay, gosh?

00:28:20
Speaker 2: Okay?

00:28:20
Speaker 1: And she had cancer, right, yes, yes, she had bone cancer.

00:28:25
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:28:25
Speaker 3: And of course you know, half of all dogs over the age of ten get cancer. It's also an epidemic in our country. So okay, and you put her down right.

00:28:38
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:28:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's saying thank you for that, because that was the day she needed to go. She showed me a red blanket, like a plaid blanket, Does that make sense.

00:28:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, she wore she had a pink plaid coat that I would put her in.

00:28:51
Speaker 3: Okay, so of course, you know, dogs can see blue, gray and yellow, but so my spirit guides, her spirit guides tell me other colors.

00:29:00
Speaker 1: I was close with the baby, yeah, very close.

00:29:03
Speaker 3: She liked that. She said that you took such good care of her. And she slept in the in your bedroom, right, yes, yes, in the bed. Yes, she loved it. Oh yeah, she's sending you butterflies. Have you seen butterflies since her death? Yeah?

00:29:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, yep, that's her little sign.

00:29:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they don't have to be real. They can be anywhere, like on a license plate sticker, anywhere. So she also just showed me rainbows and again, those don't have to be real rainbows. Yeah, and used to sing to her, right, oh yeah, not, well, that's okay, they don't care. She actually absolutely loved it when you sang to her. So that was one of her favorite things too. And of course celebrating her birthdays and Christmas and all that stuff. Okay, go what else do you want to say? Little brown dog. She's with a little brown dog on the other side. Does that make sense?

00:29:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes total sense. That is my my dog growing up Macy. Then they were together in the first part of her life.

00:30:04
Speaker 1: I love that.

00:30:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, so they're together, they're watching over you.

00:30:07
Speaker 2: Wow.

00:30:08
Speaker 3: And then Lucas come to you in dreams. Do you remember those dreams? Yeah? Yeah, she's saying something about the sink. Did you like bathe her in the sink when chose little or what is this the sink? If that makes sense? That's so random the sink.

00:30:22
Speaker 2: I'd have to think about that.

00:30:23
Speaker 3: Okay, I tell people write stuff down. If that doesn't make sense. Now, probably will.

00:30:27
Speaker 2: Later wake up at three in the morning and be like, ah, a sink.

00:30:30
Speaker 3: Or something will happen sometimes to see future stuff. So maybe like she'll move something and like into the sink, I don't know, like a soap dish or whatever. Yeah, she's she was a goofy, goofy girl. I mean just and just sparkly energy and loving, beautiful, healing energy. She loved her little butt scratches as you did. Yeah, and loved when you rubbed under her chin, and you did take her hiking like you were really active with her, right.

00:31:00
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, hit a lot of outdrectivities.

00:31:02
Speaker 3: She loved it. And did you take her on a book?

00:31:04
Speaker 2: She boat?

00:31:04
Speaker 3: She showed me water on a boat or where there were boats, like a beach or lake.

00:31:13
Speaker 2: Yes, we lived on Lake Michigan in Chicago, so we go out on the beach a lot.

00:31:17
Speaker 1: Yeah, she loved it.

00:31:18
Speaker 3: That was That's one of her favorite memories. Okay, what do you want to ask her?

00:31:23
Speaker 2: I guess the big thing was just that, you know, she felt like that was the right time when she went, and it sounds.

00:31:29
Speaker 3: Like absolutely it was humans and animals. We actually planned the exact day we're going to go before we even incarnate, So that was you helped her carry out her life script. So that was a good thing. And of course, you know, you know, euthanasia is the most humane thing you can do for sick animal.

00:31:49
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely, I always say it's a privilege. Yes, it's still it was interesting being on the other side of the equation and having to make the decision was really difficult. So sure, but I'm glad that she feels like it was the right time.

00:32:06
Speaker 1: For her to go.

00:32:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, and she said this was at home, did you. Yeah, she's saying, thank you for doing it at home because I felt a lot more safe and comfortable, and I always recommend that to people.

00:32:17
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we did it at home.

00:32:19
Speaker 2: One thing I wanted to know is if she always felt so guilty, because I felt like she hated living in downtown Chicago. So I was just wondering, did she do you get any sense of that from her? No?

00:32:29
Speaker 3: She I mean she was cold right in, but she's saying, no, I wanted to be where my mom was, Like I was her protector, her guard dog, her heeler, everything, like she just she wanted to be where you are. And that was okay, that was good with her. Good.

00:32:43
Speaker 1: That makes it.

00:32:43
Speaker 3: She did actually like the snow. Took her out in the snow.

00:32:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, she loved the snow.

00:32:47
Speaker 3: She's showing me pigeons too. Are their pigeons in Chicago? I don't even know? Yeah, at the park, Okay, she liked to watch the pigeons. That's funny, so cute. Yeah, she just said hot dog. Did she forget a like pick up a hot dog there? Probably at some point, who knows?

00:33:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, And you can get anything off the street there, gosh, probably anything with Mike my husband.

00:33:12
Speaker 3: He's funny. Yeah, he's very charming. Uh oh. I love Daddy. I love to be near him. I like to watch TV with him. And then she just said popcorn. Did you give him for popcorn or yeah, he likes a lot of popcorn. Yeah, okay, So she associates Dad with popcorn and getting the popcorn and really liking that. But of course she loves Dad for more than the popcorn. Right, But that's like and she used to sit at his feet, all right, or lay at his feet. Yeah, you love doing that. Okay. She was definitely connected to both of you. That relationship was very special to her both. Are your relationships love that?

00:33:57
Speaker 2: Well?

00:33:57
Speaker 3: Thank you? Absolutely so beautiful. Do you want to ask her anything else? By the way, By the way, I have a dog, her biological dog, Mama crossed her over, so she's not alone on the other side. Okay, wow, And then I'm seeing her with other horses. So have you had other horses that have crossed over that she's been with or that she knew or maybe didn't know, but now she's there with them.

00:34:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would makes sense.

00:34:22
Speaker 3: Okay, yes, we're all together, she says.

00:34:26
Speaker 2: I can't believe she's with Macie, my little dog, the brown dog.

00:34:30
Speaker 3: That is so any people and animals you've been with here who are now on the other side, they're going to be around you and connected because we reincarnate a soul groups, and a lot of times these animals come back to us in the same lifetime. Like my childhood dog, Copper. He came back as my dog right now. He looked at me the second day I had him and he said Copper, and I just started bawling because I knew they act exactly alike.

00:34:57
Speaker 1: So, wow, yeah, do you have any sense of Sho'll come back to me?

00:35:03
Speaker 3: I just heard eight I don't know if that's I think that's eight years, so not for a while. Okay, I do think she is going to come back. Okay, they don't always know. I don't know how that works because I've never been on the other side. But yeah, I think she she wants to. They always want to. Wow.

00:35:18
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:35:19
Speaker 1: Is that the same with humans?

00:35:22
Speaker 3: So usually they only reincarnate, you know, once a lifetime. Okay, yeah, but there's no time and space on the other side, like a blip, right, No, time at all. Right, Well, and I believe that there's multiple timelines going on at the same time. So there's no past, there's no future. It's just all right now, all happening, happening simultaneously, different timelines.

00:35:44
Speaker 2: That's the whole of their talk show, right, Yeah, exactly. Wow, I'm trying to think what else I should ask, Luca.

00:36:03
Speaker 1: It's just I should have come more prepared.

00:36:05
Speaker 2: No, it's okay.

00:36:06
Speaker 3: People usually ask me, you know, was she suffering? I mean, you took such good care of her and knew exactly what to do with her cancer. She loved her food, she loved her life. She'd show me squirrels and birds all dogs. Tell me that she was very happy. She was she felt very blessed. Other than that, she's just thanking you for the beautiful life you gave her, and she's happy she sent these two. They came after her, right, that one did at least? Yes, okay, yeah, so the old pet is always responsible for bringing in the new pet.

00:36:42
Speaker 2: Okay, they tell me, Okay, wow, that's amazing. Yeah, well, thank you, I love that so much.

00:36:49
Speaker 3: Yes, And Luca, by the way, is saying, don't be so hard on yourself to do that a lot. Yes, she's saying you're perfect just the way you are, and you're amazed out what you do, and she's thanking you for everything you do for the animals.

00:37:03
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, my gosh, right, that's so beautiful.

00:37:07
Speaker 3: I just believe that.

00:37:09
Speaker 1: Oh well, thank you. Yeah, she was so special to me.

00:37:12
Speaker 2: I got her this summer before I went to veterinary school, so we packed up and drove to VET school together. I'm not a wise decision getting a puppy before starting vet school, but she was definitely with me.

00:37:22
Speaker 1: Through the whole thing.

00:37:23
Speaker 2: So she taught you a lot too. Yes, she's my little teacher animal. I like practice blood draws on her and all that stuff.

00:37:30
Speaker 3: She's laughing, She's like, yeah, I knew that was going to happen. Yeah, it's all good.

00:37:34
Speaker 2: She was my little guinea pig, not so little, a big great Dane guinea pig, a big baby, yes.

00:37:41
Speaker 1: But very special to me for sure.

00:37:43
Speaker 3: Well, thank you for letting me tune into her.

00:37:45
Speaker 2: You're so welcome.

00:37:46
Speaker 3: Thank you.

00:37:48
Speaker 2: Now, if people want to get a reading done by you, is that something that has to happen in person? Is that something that can be done virtually? How does that work?

00:37:57
Speaker 3: I can do it in person if they're in central can can actually do a lot of barn visits with horses. But I have clients all over the world, and I consume with international clients. But people can just go to www dot Talk to Pets dot Com and book either a living pet session or a mediumship session, and so.

00:38:14
Speaker 2: It's like a virtual zoom call essentially, and they have their animals with them or or.

00:38:19
Speaker 3: For international callers, but for domestic callers, it's just a phone call and they can upload their pictures to my website, the pictures of their pets. Okay, yeah, and he is a picture to tune into any living or deceased pet.

00:38:34
Speaker 2: Wow.

00:38:35
Speaker 1: And do you do the race horses in Kentucky.

00:38:38
Speaker 3: I've actually talked to American Pharaoh right before he raced because I was friends with the lady where who owned the farm where he was born. Okay, so that was really cool, and I you know, I showed him that they communicate with visual images. So I showed him, you know, running as fast as he could and being you know, before any other horsehead, right, and so you know who knows. I mean, I believe they all can hear as animal community heres but you know, I mean he was a great horse.

00:39:07
Speaker 1: So he is a great horse. Yeah, it's one of the best of all times. Yeah, he did it. So that's amazing that it's.

00:39:13
Speaker 3: Cool to have that connection. Yeah, so cool. Yeah.

00:39:17
Speaker 2: Well, I just think this is such an incredible gift and I really appreciate you coming on and showing us you know what you're able to do with this ability, and just yeah, thank you for making the time.

00:39:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you for having me.

00:39:32
Speaker 2: You're so welcome.

00:39:37
Speaker 4: All right, it's our favorite time of the week for Paul and Order. Yes, that was so much fun getting to have Carrie on here. And I feel like I just want to have her come and I want to talk to every animal that has ever been in my life.

00:39:50
Speaker 1: And just know what they're what they were thinking.

00:39:52
Speaker 3: I know.

00:39:52
Speaker 1: So amazing.

00:39:53
Speaker 2: I just think it's such a special gift and so cool.

00:39:57
Speaker 1: We're so lucky to have had her here today.

00:40:01
Speaker 4: All right, So, Pawn, Order, what is the what's happening this week that we need to learn about? I learned a lot last week, guys, of things I should not be doing.

00:40:08
Speaker 1: So what's up for this week? All right?

00:40:10
Speaker 2: First on the docket we have I would not recommend attempting to trim your pets toenails at home without getting a demo from your veterinarian.

00:40:21
Speaker 1: First.

00:40:21
Speaker 2: Yes, I have seen a lot of blood baths, I believe it at home. There's a big old vessel and nerve that run down the middle of that nail. We call it the quick and if you trim that toenail back too short, you are going it's gonna look like, uh, there's been a homicide in your house.

00:40:38
Speaker 1: It's not good.

00:40:39
Speaker 4: I'm sad to say I've done it before. Especially dogs that have dark toenails. It's way harder to not make sure that you don't hurt yourself or hurt them while you're doing it. So yeah, definitely ask your vet or take it to someone who knows what they're doing.

00:40:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, or a groomer.

00:40:52
Speaker 2: And if you do happen to trim your dog's toenails too short and they are bleeding, you can always use cornstar or baking flour. DA have that on the end of the nail and that can help it the blood clot and not bleed as much. Okay, thoughts on the grinders, I don't mind them, the drum all grinders, Yeah, they're they're fine. They make a loud noise. I think by the end of it, if you can just trim the nail with regular nail trimmers, I mean, it's usually a little bit more quick and efficient. But if you want to kind of round the edges and do the drumal, go for it. Nice manicure. I know, like, is she okay? Okaz, she's sneezing?

00:41:32
Speaker 1: Okay? All right? Next up on pawn order, all right, next up.

00:41:37
Speaker 2: I would not use the flea, tick and heartworm prevention that you can purchase online or at the pet store. I see so many pets that come in with fleas and ticks and heartworm because they are prevention was purchased at the pet store. This is one area where you do not want to save a few dollars. Get the prescription stuff from your veterinarian. Absolutely is different and way more effective.

00:42:02
Speaker 3: Okay.

00:42:03
Speaker 2: So although you may save a few dollars in the short term, you will spend way way more trying to treat heartworm disease and get rid of fleas. All right, good to know, yes, because you see it there, you're at the store, You're like, oh, I need to get this. Yeah, one stop shop, don't do it.

00:42:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you have no idea. I mean it seems like, of course it's going to work, just like the other stuff does, but it really does not. So okay, good to know, all right, what's up next?

Speaker 2: Last on the docket. I would not ignore my cat's unusual bathroom habits. Cats in particular can have a lot of lower urinary track disease, the boy cats specifically, and it can be a life threatening emergency at times. So if your kitty is ever straining tyrannate, vocalizing in the litter box, if there's blood in their urine. This isn't something where it's like, oh, I'll just give it a day or two and see if it clears up on its own. Call your vet right away and let them know what's going on. Good to know.

00:42:54
Speaker 4: Yeah, we actually had something similar happen with our cat and he had like a little kidney thing going on. He's fine and we caught it quickly, but I can imagine if we had to let it go, it would not have been good. Yes, and mail cats love to get stones and they're urethra and they become blocked and that is life threatening. So any weird things going on in the letterbox. Let your vet know yes for sure.
