Hey Kimmy, all you have to do is ask!! Mike will see if Chipper will talk to him...he'll even talk to Kia! ;)
I hope Kia doesn't share anything embarressing!! :eek: :o :D
There's a post in Cat General - Kirsten is looking for a pet psychic for a friend's cat - this is in Europe.
I posted Nancy's email addy - but Mugsy, do you think Mike could talk to a photo????
Thanks!
I can certainly ask him!! I am sure he could try!
Hey Catty, Mike said he would give it a shot...you can send me a picture via email at [email protected] or Mike at the store at [email protected].

* Jack KNOWS that he's cute and he's full of himself.
* He doesn't really have his own place in the pack, he fluctuates from the 3rd spot to the last. He really, really, really wants to be the leader and thinks he will be very soon. I was talking about taking Jack with me when I move out and Nancy thought that would be a good idea but to keep him as an only child because he wants to be in charge and he'd make another dog miserable.
* The other Hoodlums don't really like Jack because he's way too into himself and he annoys them
* He likes agility, but it's not for him. He doesn't like being told what to do and would rather be the leader
* The reason he's so "unsual" around other dogs when he first meets them (the hair all stands up on his back and he's really pushy) is because he doesn't want the other dogs to think he's wimpy, he wants them to know that he's tough and in charge. But after the initial meeting he's fine with anybody. (this I do know)
* He's been peeing in the house occasionally (like the corners of the beds) and it's because he wants to be the leader.
-- And my favorite part..
* He loves the "blonde girl in the house" because she pampers him :D
- I'm surprised after hearing how into himself he actually is he actually thought to mention me! :p
The most amazing thing, however, is that my very very first dog, Simba, came through. We got him from a shelter 13 years ago and only had him for about a year before he ran off and we searched EVERYWHERE but never found him. He has passed on but wanted to let us know that he's okay. :( :)
So all in all, very cool!!
Awesome to hear Ashley!! When I went in I mentioned that your mom had come in for a Noon session but how you weren't sure which dog you were going to have read. Jana remembers overhearing Nancy telling your mom that you definitely picked the right dog to be read. ;) :D
Andy and I got to the store early and walked in with the dogs, letting Jana know we had arrived and then since Nancy was finishing up a reading, we took the pups for a walk around town.
Andy kept the pups with him and I went in at 2 p.m. for Chip's reading.
Before I even got a chance to sit down and give her Chipper's photos and my questions, Nancy laughed and said she had to start with Kia because when we had came in with them, Kia had interrupted her conversation with the previous clients. :o :rolleyes: :D
She wanted Nancy to let me know that:
* She feels much better mentally
* feels not so insecure. Much more confident.
* Changes do not seem to have affected her (such as the move and the marriage)
* She's more confident because I'm more confident
Now... onto Chipper (with a little bit of Kia's thoughts):
* feels much better to me. Much stronger to me. Feels as though there is a lot of strength
* He likes Kia much more than she likes him. He is annoying her. This change from 1 dog to 2 dogs has disrupted her. He doesn't stop with her. She gives him signals but he doesn't listen.
* He has so much energy - Feels like he's bursting with energy
* Does not feel that he has the need to be top dog. Just wants to play. Is not interested in alpha status - just playing
* Biting Kia's legs is his dumb way to entice her to play. He thinks it is going to get her to play.
* Feels nothing in the stomach now.
* Possible Arthritic problems in the left shoulder joint while he's still young - left wrist hurts
* Not mimicking itchiness - house feels dry
* Watch the cats!! (Warning from Nancy to me - Chipper sees the cats as toys - teach him while he's still young not to bother them)
* Fun, happy, not a lot of cares in the world
* Just wants to play
* Charlie! (See's it as a fun guy name - maybe his previous name?)
* Loves to play! Fun guy - lots of life
* Likes you a lot. Loves the home.
* Saw himself as a street wanderer prior to Animal Control picking him up. No baggage - has a lot of energy! (seeing a pattern? ;) )
* Easy going - Change would not disrupt him.
Nancy suggested Doggy Day Care. Something to exhaust him and stimulate him. He just has so much energy that the play time and walks we are offering him are not tiring him out. So he turns his focus on Kia. It's not that Kia dislikes him, she's just becoming very annoyed and for her's and Chipper's well being, we have to find an outlet for his energy.
I mentioned agility and Nancy agreed it'd be good to try.
We picked up a Canine Genius toy and a Kong Stuff-A-Ball. Chipper has spent a couple hours now trying to figure out the Canine Genius toy which means a moment of peace for Kia. :)
Jana gave me some information on a couple different Doggie Day Care places.
Everything she shared was just right on. Since he's been feeling better we've noticed a change. Nancy described it as night and day. Night when he was sick to day when he's 100% better. He was likely not feeling well when we adopted him.
Wow, that is really cool! I absolutely love it that Kia interrupted her to tell her a few things, LOL! Just something that passed through my mind as I read this - about the name Charlie? don't know if you have these where you are, but there used to be a potato chip company that delivered chips in metal cans to homes- they were called Charles Chips! So maybe he's Charlie-Chipper! :D What a relief to hear that he is feeling better. That was quite a scare he gave you. Overall, sounds like he's a great addition to your family. (But you already know that!)
Oh yeah! I remember those chips now that you mention it. They sold them around here too. :D
Too funny! Andy just said, "Hey Charlie!" to him and Chip looked up. Interesting. :)
