God, a dog and pet psychics
Archive: Psychics & Other Frauds
An Oregon man who believes that God wanted him to discover a stray dog that disappeared a few years after being adopted has spent $15,000 trying to find 'Fremont.' Some of that money went to pet psychics.
Baker hired all of them, paying between $55 and $100 a session. Each psychic claimed to have spoken with Fremont. One said someone had dragged Fremont into a car after putting something around his neck. Another said Fremont spoke to her, telling her that he saw a fence and the dogs were kept out of doors, sometimes in a kennel with a cover. Fremont told her, the psychic said, that the people holding him called him “Pal” and “Chief.” He added that he missed his home.
But the psychics couldn't tell Baker where Fremont was.
Baker then turned to a white witch, a woman brought in to cast spells with candles, herbs and dream cards. She had given Baker two cards to put above his bed so he could tap into the spiritual world, where he'd connect with Fremont. Although Baker had a vision of an orange license plate, he'd never had a solid dream because, he said, his girlfriend kept waking him when she got up to go to the bathroom.

Feel free to share your feelings about God, a dog and pet psychics. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted.
This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
