I must be certifiable. Years ago my father, Jack died. We came back from the funeral and were met at the door by the family dog, Trouble. I would stake my life that Trouble asked me “Where’s Jack?” in an almost human voice. First and only time I heard her speak in human words. I told her that Jack had died. Then went around the farm and told each and every animal on the farm that Jack had died. I did not want to be out in the pasture and get asked by the sheep or ducks or chickens and risk being seen having a conversation with the animals. People might have decided I needed to stay in a padded room wearing a jacket that tied in the rear.
