Consulting with an Animal Communicator for Pet Behavior Problems

The Problem

My two dogs were fighting again. Only six months apart in age, I viewed them as a case study in never-ending sibling rivalry. Throughout their 10 years, some violent episodes had erupted. "What is it this time?" I worried. By now, I thought they would have resolved their differences. There was a new rescued kitten in the household, and this seemed to be the trigger for the renewed aggression between them. I was heartsick and thought I was going to have to find another home for this kitten. At my wit's end, I decided to contact an animal communicator for help.

Contacting the Animal Communicator

The animal communicator asked me to send pictures, not only of the two problem children, but of all the pets in the household, which included my three cats, along with breed, size and age information. I was instructed to draw up a list of questions I had for my pets. The interview was to take place over the phone. I paid for two reasonably-priced consecutive sessions, since I figured I had double-trouble!

At the appointed time, I made the call. Without coaxing, all five of my pets drew near to me. I had planned to start the questions with Yogi, my overgrown Siberian husky, but the communicator informed me that Tayla, a tri-colored mixed breed, wanted to go first. Tayla was pushy and bossy by nature. She was half Yogi's size, but seemed undeterred by this disadvantage in her confrontations with her. I was already intrigued that this woman seemed to pick up on their personalities.

After letting me know that Tayla thought she was pretty, the communicator kept repeating that Tayla thought Yogi was a "wild dog," and did not belong indoors. Finally, I let Tayla know that I thought she was wilder than Yogi. A high-energy, nervous type of a dog, Tayla was always running in front of me in the house, still jumped up on guests and was easily excited. Whereas Yogi was more laid back and preferred to snooze than to follow my every movement. She came to greet guests, but never even barked when a car pulled up or when someone was at the door.
