VERONA
For all of those who has lost a most beloved pet. I give you my story of possibilities
of reincarnation. But, first I need to give you the "facts" of my own experience on how I
belive "Verona"came back to me.
About three months ago I watched a show on fact or fiction involving a couple who lived next
door to a family who owned an older male black lab. Every time the couple would drive in their
yard the dog would bark at them. (I guess as an act of protecting his turf.) No matter what
the couple had tried the dog would continue his barking at them. The couple had split up and
the man had been away on a trip for some time. On returning he had received a phone call from
his former girlfriend asking him if they could get together for dinner seeing how they had
remained fiends he agreed. As they drove into the drive way they saw the old black lab, but
this time he wasn't barking. They found this very weird and asked the owner what was wrong
with his dog. To their surprise the dog had passed away but was still on guard of his yard.
After seeing this show it brought comfort to me knowing that some how Verona was still with
me.
The next morning while I was at a gas station 20 miles from my home helping an employee
pumping gas. A white truck pulled in and as I started to go towards it with a doggie treat (which we always have handy at the station) a sensation of disbelief and chills ran through my body. The dog came to the opened window with a wag of the tail and what appeared to be a smile. I must have looked pale because the owner got out of her truck and asked if I was alright. I had tears in my eyes as I looked at the dog and had explained to the owner that I had one that looked exactly like her and that this particular breed was rare in this state.
The owner had also stated that "Brandy" never goes to strangers and that she had not seen her
react in such a loving manner towards another person outside of her family. Could it be my
"Verona"? Needless to say we have become very good pals!!!!!

The markings to the colour were a perfect match for my Verona. When I asked her age the owner
replied she is 5 years old. More shock filled my veins, I had put Verona own 5 years earlier
for liver cancer.
