So you found your fluffy friend at the pound or wandering the streets of a bad neighborhood. They now have a loving safe home at your place. But, to help them adjust to their new lives even more, it sure would be nice to know how they ended up alone and homeless.
My friend, Loretta, took in a rescue dog recently, an adorable Chihuahua mix, who was found darting into traffic near her office. She named him Shuge. And in the months since she brought him home to live with her, and her other furry pal Paco, the troubled look in his eyes seems to have disappeared. He's finally eating well and has given up sleeping all day, too. It was clear to us that he had suffered trauma. What had he been through and how could he be helped even more? I decided to solve some of the mystery in her new dog's history by getting a pet reading with Debra (an animal communicator) while I was dogsitting.
All that Debra needed for the reading was Shuge's name and the location where he'd been found. It was amazing what the Clairvoyant was able to tell me with just that bit of information.
"Shuge's name used to be Fred," Debra began.
"That makes sense, he looks like a Fred and like a Shuge," I replied laughing.
He had belonged to a young boy, whose family was moving away from the city, Debra reported. At a rest stop, miles from home, the boy lost track of Fred. The family searched for the small dog who was so confused that he ran off in the wrong direction. Days later, a young woman found him wandering around the rest area and took him home. Unfortunately her family didn't want the dog and he was let go, onto the streets this time.
No wonder little Shuge (um, Fred) had looked so traumatized, I told Debra. By the time my friend rescued him, he'd been lost, found and dumped!
Debra knew, without me telling her, that his right shoulder bothered him because of hip and joint pain.
"That makes sense," I said, as he definitely has a noticeable limp. "He's an old dog and sometimes he seems pretty shaky."
My friend Loretta said that as soon as she saw Shuge, she thought her other dog Paco would like him. I asked Debra to tell me if my friend was right. Were these two dogs destined to be best buddies? The psychic then tapped into both dogs. She reported back that they are indeed very happy together. I will attest to that - plus, Paco does not always warm up easily to other dogs). More and more the two seem like a sort of Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau duo. The psychic added that Paco has a caring sense of responsibility for his new friend. I knew that Loretta would be very happy to hear that.
Debra encouraged Shuge's new owner to put his face between her hands and repeat over and over to him, "It's safe here, you're staying with me." He needs to keep hearing it, the psychic recommended, to continue to heal from his trauma.
Debra also suggested that since animals communicate through mental pictures, my friend Loretta should visualize how many moons and sunrises would go by before her return, whenever she leaves on a trip. That way both dogs would be comforted that her leaving was not forever.
When Loretta came home, she was absolutely thrilled to hear about Shuge's past and present (calmer, healthier state of mind) in his hew home. And for me, it was really helpful to experience a pet reading, as I'm thinking of adopting, too. It's a relief to know that I can call Debra to help me fill in the blanks on my pet's past and help them settle in comfortably.
