Before You Decide
Read the ordinary cause first. Then read the pattern. If you skip the ordinary cause, you will scare yourself and call it intuition. I do not work that way.
Do not assume a real person is disloyal because of one animal dream. Look for waking evidence.
Better Questions
- Did the dog protect, follow, threaten, or ignore me?
- Was it known or unknown?
