Here is her experience in her own words.

"I used to have a miniature Pinscher called Rupert. His passing came as a trategy in my life because it had been just 3 months my husband and me we had moved to our new home in the country and the dog got hit by a car.

Rupert was a very courageous dog and most people who would see him would be impress by his confidence. He would not be afraid of bigger dogs or anything! Not long after we passed away, one stormy evening, we had just came back from shopping and we notice when we went to check our 4 horses in the barn that one of them was missing.

I had not lock his stall door properly and he must have pushed it open. So, by then it was very dark and still raining, we could not see the horse anywhere. We tried calling him but no familiar noise echoed back. Until we both heared a barking noise like Rupert used to do. My husband quickly followed the sound and found our lost horse wondering near the woods that was at the end of our neighbor's hay field beside our property!

Till this day, when I think of this night, I thank my " Rupert" for his help.
