Can animals talk? Can they really communicate with us? I often wondered about this myself. I grew up surrounded by animals and have always felt a really close bond with them, but to talk to them? Was animal communication possible? I wasn’t sure; it all seemed like realms of fantasy, however enduring.
By the age of 10 I was convinced you really could talk to the animals. My bond with them was so close, and I knew they understood me. Having watched the original Dr. Doolittle film staring Rex Harrison, I was convinced I was right.
I made up my mind there and then that this is what I was going to do when I grew up. I imagined a wonderful life talking to the animals, sharing their problems and making their lives better. It was going to be fantastic!
To my utter dismay my dad squashed my hopes before the dream had even started. He told me animal communication wasn’t real. The film was purely make believe, you can’t really talk to the animals. I cried myself to sleep.
I grew up a little sadder and more disillusioned. I was never aware of talking to the animals but I knew they were far more intelligent than most people gave them credit for. I became aware of their feelings and emotions and secretly hoped that maybe Heaven was a place where we could all communicate with the animals. Maybe the magic existed there.
Sullivan’s long illness had upset the whole family and I was uncertain of the outcome. One night as I sat with him pondering on his future I was suddenly aware of images in my mind; his birth, his mother and his illness.
I was communicating with my dog! Sullivan confirmed it by sending me the words, ‘I’ve come to help you.’ And help me he did. He taught me my first lessons in animal communication, pushing through all my adult doubts and resurrecting the child who ‘believed.’
Since then I have started training as an animal communicator and my whole world has changed. To talk to the animals is wonderful. They have so much love to give and willingly share this love with you. I’m on the path now to being a professional animal communicator and all thanks to a very persistent border collie!
