Javier Milei and his connection to pet psychic Celia Melamed

Argentine President Javier Milei has a long-standing and intense connection with his dogs, specifically his English mastiff, Conan. Years before his presidency, while working as a television pundit, Milei hired animal psychic Celia Melamed to assist with his dying dog.

Melamed, who became a well-known figure in Argentina due to this connection, stated that Milei continued to hire her for two years. This included attempts to communicate with Conan in the afterlife and with five clones created using the dog's DNA. Milei, who refers to his dogs as his children, used Conan as a symbol during his political campaign.
