I am looking for some information and I am hoping someone here might be able to help me. Some of my friends know that my boyfriend is Wiccan. He chats with people on a Wiccan forum. He showed me a copy of a chat he had with another member and it greatly intrigued me. If anyone can help me, I will be more than happy to share the transcripts with you. This is very important to me as it pertains to one of my dogs. She called my dog a Witch dog or a guardian. She said they were rare in my area. And she said that we need to guard her with our life. She also used the terms celtic myths and Fae dogs. I want to learn more about this. If anyone has any information, I would love to talk to you. Thanks.

Dogs are natural protectors. They are capable of showing a huge amount of love for someone even if they aren't treated all that well. In my area there are a lot of pit bulls and rotties which means that there are underground dog fights. A few months ago someone tied a rottie to a pole in my back yard; he was thin, had wounds and was pretty sick, obviously the product of dog fights.
I took him to my vat, got him healed up and he started putting on weight and filling out. The other dogs, all rotties, took to him almost immediately. He is the youngest and most active of the group but the most protective. When the "owner" came back for him saying it was a mistake the dog ran and hid under the porch, he was so scared.
Long story short, the new dog turned out to be a complete blessing. He sensing things that I have never seen another dog sense. He barks at "thin air" (our house has a few ghosts) and has a keen sense of judging people. If you walk in the house and he doesn't like you, you know it right away. A friend said that the dog is extremely receptive to spirits and other worldly things so the next time he starts barking 'for no reason' .. there really is a reason for it.
You may want to get in touch with Bizziebod here at the site. She may have some information from across the pond about Fae dogs, I've never heard the term before.

I just now noticed in your pic . I am trying to remember about all black dogs I know they are supposed to be powerful and watched. your dog is beautiful. i love dogs and just had to get rid of 2 that i loved so much ,but we moved to a place and could not keep them. i think that dogs are very powerful ,they seem to talk to you and understand how you feel and waht you are saying to them.

The dog in my pic got killed last October but I have a puppy of his that looks just like him and acts just like him. I am sorry that you had to get rid of your dogs.

Not sure if you know of it and am hoping it only leads to more learning. Vast and wide we can entertain all sorts of things we do on a daily basis. Good luck. My cat is very different and holds power that draws me to him. Never found his name since I am purely pleased that he is for me.

A celtic myth is basically the same thing any other myth is just pertaining to the celtic religion. A guardian or protector is a dogs job. They are very sensitive, and they know when things are coming in to hurt you. My dogs eyes are also off color when her picture is taken. They are a greyish white color instead of the normal red.
Anyway back to what I was saying. These protectors are there to let you know when harm is in your forcast or future. They have their own way of letting you know. My dog (she is 3/4 bull mastif, 1/4 pit bull) likes to sit on my lap looking at the door for about 30 minutes before a stranger comes calling. (she weighs 85 pounds by the way she is no lap dog) If she does not want me to answer the door she will not get up. Even if I tell her to. They have their own perceptions of people and they are usually the ones doing the guarding. I have a slight feeling that what she waw talking about was maybe the fact that someone has been trying to talk you into selling them or giving them the dog.. She is saying dont do it. That is just my opinion not that of the staff and management. Please get back to me and let me know what you find out.

Another part of her conversation had to do with how much of the eye that the camera got. If you look at Charlie's picture in my avatar, his eyes appear to be a bluish purple.Its the same with Charlotte. Looking at the pictures of my other dogs, their eyes come out a yellowish green. At first I thought it was just the angle at which the picture was taken but it happens at all angles. Its kind of spooky but fascinating at the same time.

that is kind of weird- that has happened with my Buca- his eyes appear to be blue in some photos (not all)- so many people commented on that- "oh he has blue eyes" "no it's just the camera".
Can you ask your boyfriend to ask her to give you more information on that?? I mean a lot of people like when you ask questions about their religion, they feel they are getting the chance to explain everything to someone who wants to learn. I myself am very curious about different religions, I have found that people like when you ask questions and are more then happy to answer. I have attended many different churches and ask a lot of questions.... I would love to go to a Wiccan ceremony and an american indian one....and some day I will- it helps you to see things from a different perspective and to understand people better.
Ask him it couldn't hurt to ask.

Hi
Myself I'm pagan I believe in a wide range of different things in the relgion it self. I know what fae is it's fairies, like as in the land of the fae it's realms. I know that the eyptians worshiped cats there was one that was called bast and it's not a statue they worshiped I don't know if they still do. But I think maybe the girl might see something about your dog you should check up on it there's pagan book stores if you can't find it on line there's alot of stuff about the relgion I did a project on it to learn more about. But I've never got that route ,but alot of people believe different things I keep an open mind and think things can happen you never know
