This is Taisha. Her mom (person) gave me a list of questions to ask Taisha. After a few questions Taisha said to me, "I wish I could just read that list so that we could go over the questions that I like."

Lucy & Gabe:

Bear Hug says, "The reason I get up on the counter top is to look for milk or other goodies."

She says, "I don't mind having another dog in the house, but can we eat in separate rooms? I want to eat in the kitchen in my own corner."

THIS IS FUZZY & ANGEL

Fuzzy, "I want a cow"
Angel, "I want a job where I make people smile."

Pluto is 11 years old. She still runs 6 miles with her person's friend. When asked if she would like to ride part of the 6 miles in a cart she says, "Oh yes, I would ride in a cart." She also thought, "Mom should plant big tomatoes in the back yard."

My brother is an investigative reporter for NBC. He is a four time Emmy Award winner and sixteen time Emmy Award nominee. GRANTS RANT is his blog. I have always admired my brother for fearlessly going after his passions. He has done stories on animal abuse, rescue and the inhumane capture of elephants in the wild for a well known circus. GRANTS RANT is his new project. I find it humorous as well as educational.

Vinny says, "The bridle they clean often (show bridle) hurts the top of my head and my jaw. Can they make it bigger?" and "When my mom (person) rides me I feel I have princess on my back."

Nutmeg is a 3 year-old female cat. She asks, "Do stuff animals ever come to life? Their eyes don't look right."

"I don't understand why people drive those obnoxious cars. Isn't there a better way to get around?"

I met these sweethearts in the office of a pet store. Chili on the left asked me, "Can you hear all animals? ... Is this room special or do you hear them everywhere?"

In the early morning, this owl flew in front of me and dropped me a feather. While in the trees he said, >"When you pray I feel it makes the world better."

I saw this road runner on a day that I was a bit stressed. Soon after I took this picture he flew to the roof of a house. He (or she) said, "When you get higher up you get a better perspective and then you know which path to take. Sometimes it is best to be patient and wait and watch."

Jalla says to me, "You are the strangest person I have ever met."

This is Ranger and me. Ranger asked me what his person was doing with the camera. I tried to explain to him what a picture is. He responded, "Like a memory?"

"Tell my dad (person) that if he is patient with me, I'll be patient with him."

Spirit's family recently adopted another dog. She says, "Since the new dog came around I am reminded that I am a dog too. I want to do more people things. I miss going shopping with mom and out to lunch."

I asked Justice how his harness feels and he replied, "Sometimes my people pull on me. They can be so rude."

This is Dahlia. This picture does not do her justice. She is looking for a new home. A perspective new owner was riding her. I asked Dahlia if she wanted to go and live with this woman. Dahlia answered, "Can you ask me again after she rides me five more times?"

"My mom (person) said she was bring me to someone who could hear me, but I didn't believe her."

Molly is my friends' dog. She is a little rascal. I had to talk to her about some of her naughty behaviors. She replied, "I knew from the moment I first saw you, you'd be trouble for me."

Bodie said to me, "You talk to animals. That's great. I talk to people"

This is Gus, Freddie and Herbie's cousin. On our first meeting Gus says to me, “I know why you’re here. Fred and Herbie told me that our people have you come over to tell us what we do wrong. They also told me that if I don’t want to sit on your lap, you can still hear me from across the room.”

Harley has been my good friend for many years. He is highly intelligent. Every now and then he pees in the house. This time he peed in a room where his aunt (person) sleeps with her dog, Ranger. No humans were home at the time. When I asked Harley why he peed, he answered, "Ranger was scared and wanted me to sleep in the room with him. I didn't feel like it. This way I thought Ranger would feel safer because he would smell me there....I forgot mom (person) doesn't want me to pee in the house." I know for a fact Harley did not forget he is not suppose to pee in the house. Yet his reasoning makes me think a bit.

MR. T says, "I would like to hear more music around the house and I think my dad (person) is reading the wrong book. He should be reading the book with the brown cover."

I had to tell Shadow that in order for him to go any farther in his Search & Rescue training he is going to have to give up chasing deer. He replies, "Sometimes you have to give up something you like to get something better."

"I want my mom to put me on a harness and walk me around the street. I want to hear people say how cool I am."

Sally says, "Most humans don't listen to the earth or the air."

Princess said, "I love when mom does fun things for herself. I would like my nails painted too."

I asked Max if there was anything he wanted to tell his person. He responded, "What do I need you for? She hears me fine when I want to play."

I met this birdie down by the ocean. I asked her if she ever felt life was hard. Birdie said, "I try to have a routine and stick to it as much as possible. That makes my life easier."
Then I asked her what she would like more than anything. She answered, "I would like good bugs in the air."

I asked Gunther if he had any pain in his body. He replied, "What is pain? If you are happy there should be no pain. Right?"
He also said, "I don't want to bite anyone. Can I have a job? Maybe I can learn to pull a cart and bring fruit to people."

This is Cleo. Over the years, she became my very good friend. A friend, I miss dearly. The first time I met her, she said this about her and her brother, "Laura, we don't need you. Randy and I can communicate to our people just fine. You can go now."

I was explaining to Chester what eye glasses are and how they help people to see.
Chester says: "Sometimes my person doesnt see in other ways. Seeing isnt always seeing with your eyes. Seeing truth is like how clear my water looks when it is fresh. Non truth is like looking at my water after I drank with a dirty face."

"I think that people should know that it hurts to be thrown out of a car in a box. That sometimes people look at animals and don’t really see them. The best way to look at an animal is to be close to them and to pet them and to tell them that they are beautiful.

MY TWO CLOSE FRIENDS HAVE MOVED TO WASHINGTON. HERE ARE HOW THEY ARE DOING.

NOVA (white golden mix) "it is so amazing to have my family all together, even the horses. The trees are so tall that they make me dizzy when i look up at them. Our house has stairs and smells like the outdoors. I wish you were here"

LULA (mexican mutt) "I miss Ojai, but there is something about the air here that is healing to the family. I am happy to hear dad's music again and sniff all the different smells. I saw a skunk and he told me i better stay away or he would hurt me. You would have been so proud of me. I respected his wishes and then he went under the deck"

"PEOPLE WOULD BE HAPPIER IF THEY BREATHED CLOSER TO TREES"

Belle: (german shepherd)
Pilot: (chocolate lab)

May you find wisdom and humor in the thoughts and feelings of these animals.
