4 Ways to Understand Your Pet
Adapted from “Animal Voices” by Dawn Baumann Brunke (Inner Traditions, 2002).
Most of us would like to understand our companion animals better, but we’re not sure how to begin communicating with them. Here are the four basic methods used by animal communicators to receive information from animals. All humans have the ability to receive information in one or more of these ways. You can learn how, too!
Spend some quiet time with your pet, with the intention of learning something important about her or him. Close your eyes, if you like. You may want to stroke your pet gently and let your mind open and your body relax. Now, in your mind, ask your pet to tell you something she or she wants you to know. How does information come to you? Pay attention to the particular way you receive, so you can develop the mode that is most comfortable for you.
These are the four basic ways that humans receive deep information:
Clairvoyance (French for “clear seeing” or “clear vision“) is the ability to see images not normally perceived. Usually this refers to the projection of a picture, a slide show or even a short movie of an animal doing something, which plays within the darkened theater of the receiver‘s mind. Sometimes perspective shifts and the communicator views the scene as if through the animal‘s eyes.)
Clairaudience (“clear hearing”) is an inner hearing that can include sounds as well as words. These may be sounds an animal hears, though distinct words and sentences may also be heard on the inner level, rather like thoughts. Communicators say there is a qualitative difference between hearing your thoughts and hearing the thoughts of an animal.
Clairsentience (“clear feeling”) is the realm of kinesthetic feeling. This can include taste, smell, and other physical sensations. Communicators who work with sick animals may feel aches and pains in their body corresponding to the aches and pains of the animal. Feelings such as depression, lethargy, or apprehension may be perceived in this manner; emotions are also a form of clairsentience.
Intuition may be translated as inner knowing, a form of immediate insight. A good intuition is sometimes accompanied by a case of the willies, those tingly ghost fingers that lightly creep up over the top of your spine, making all the hairs on the back of your neck stand at attention, an obvious indication that something important is happening here. Intuition is a strong inner sensing or gut feeling.

I'm the 4rth.she constantly bangs her tail and only allows two or three pets. She then meows which turns into a growl.she has accepted me but no one else in the family. 3 weeks now. She still seems frustrated. i have the patience..but not my family.I cannot understand her.Any suggestions? Please help

@Maria Elena: thank you for the offer and the good intention. (meanworld@email.com)
As strange as it may sound but this things work! Well, animals are more sensitive and much more close to mother nature than humans. But some sensitive people are even able to take part in some kind of mental communication as well.

since i got my new puppy this wierd thing has been happening where my dream will gradually become what im guessing is her dream. at first ill be dreaming about getting ready to go out for a walk and almost all of a sudden, im on the floor chasing the cat around the house. doesnt happen all of the time, but its definitely cool when it does.
maria elena: will you teach me how to do that with my dog? this is my first ever and i'd love to have that bond with her forever.

I loved all of the comments. Not sure what the four steps covered, I have discovered I have been doing these with the dogs I have had for years. I have a Chorkie now, Baby Girl, and I find her staring at me alot. I find petting her is soothing for me and her. She can't stand to be away from me, and if I am gone for minutes or hours, when I get home it is the same. Exuberant Welcome! Thank you for this.

Maria Elena: thank you for your post; I lost my dearly beloved Boxer Cody last month... my email address: fadadomar@care2.com. I would love to learn how to get in touch with Cody. I hope you read this and get in touch with me!
I will probably not be on-line until Tuesday the 8th of January, so if you mail me and I don't react, you know why...
Dee Williams: that is beautiful! I think it is called telepathy.
Lisa K: I love your story. It reminds me of a femal dog who belongs to a friend of mine. She is still alive, but not an easy dog to handle. We have discussed the possibility of putting her to sleep, but it seems someone has gotten in touch with her and she clearly stated she didn't want to die.
All: has anybody ever read the book "Out On A Leash", by Shirley Mclain? What do you think about it?
