Dear Guadalupe,
My family is fond of my dog-ter Chelsea. Some of them think I’m
crazy but they don’t let that get in the way. Chelsea would
like to have a brother or sister so maybe one day we will have a
little two legged child.
How does it feel to be almost famous? Interesting question. There
was a big rush right after the NY Times story…television appearances.
It’s a like a high. Pretty exciting. Suddenly people want
to talk to you, people return your phone calls who wouldn’t
before. The question is how long does it last if you are almost
famous but not famous, yet. Time will tell but we are enjoying every
minute of it and feel very lucky. For example, we would have never
received these great letters from you and your classmates had it
not been for this publicity. We treasure these interactions more
than anything else.
We will make pictures of Chelsea and send them to you and your classmates.
Keep smiling.
Hugs from Gayle

Dear Ramon,
Thanks for your letter and thinking that I’m famous. Not yet
but Chelsea and I are on our way. We look forward to being in a position
where we can help lots of kids like you and the doggies of the world.
For your second question, those people who are you referring to are
my brother and sister-in-law. They didn’t treat Chelsea like
trash. They loved her but just didn’t have the time to devote
to her since there was a new baby and lots of other kids and dogs.
It was my blessing they allowed me to take her. That leads to your
last question. I feel like Chelsea saved me. She has given me so much
love and taught me the importance of giving. If you could ever have
a dog, I’d recommend getting one.

Dear Oscar,
Yes, Shih Tzu diva Chelsea sleeps with me most nights. Although
she is quite independent and she has her side of the bed and doesn't
like me to crowd her. Chelsea does several tricks including rollover.
I love dogs. Unfortunately, my passion for cats is far less. That's
due to a weird experience in college. My roommate had funky cats
that use to pee on the bed. Thanks for writing and keep up the good
work.

Thanks for the beautiful drawing. Sometimes Chelsea
and I feel like we can fly just like a butterfly. How symbolic!
Dear Edith,
What a cute letter. I can’t say I have ever imagined Chelsea
with a can of Pepsi in her paw but that could make a great ad for
the drink? What do you think? For you next question, no I don’t
use an anti-aging cream. I have my dog-ter Chelsea in my life which
keeps my stress level down. On the subject of age, Chelsea won’t
reveal it. She insists there is age discrimination in Hollywood. She
won’t even tell me. You know how celebrities are!
Thanks for writing and good luck with your school work!

Thank you for your beautiful drawing of our House of Wonders.
As Chelsea grows into a huge star she will need to escape into her
House of Wonders filled with so many beautiful things, and beautiful
people.
