IMMEDIATELY he challenged, "Am I in trouble?"
Duke, my spunky terrier, was responding to Rebecca Moravec, animal communicator. Rebecca transmitted that no, Duke wasn't in trouble, and no, she wasn't a veterinarian or groomer, either.
Next, "Are they really going to get another dog? I don't want another dog in the family." I had no idea that Duke paid attention to my kids joking about getting another terrier.
Rebecca conveyed to Duke that "No, we're just joking around, we have no intention of getting another dog." Four kids, Duke, and a retriever named Digger are quite enough for me to handle, thank you.
Duke was Rebecca's fifth client on an unhurried Sunday afternoon. Earlier, I observed as Rebecca communicated with an agitated German Shepherd mix (he didn't like his muzzle leash) and a Maltese who likes baths, wanted longer hair and to wear his sweater more often.
Rocky, the Maltese, also offered that although he's ageing and losing some of his hearing, Gloria (his owner) shouldn't be too worried. Rocky was curious about my presence and wondered to Rebecca whether I had treats for him, why I didn't pet him and with all the attention being paid to him, whether it was his 'big day' - his birthday.
As Rebecca explains it, her ability to communicate with animals - technically called Interspecies Telepathic Communication - is not a unique skill. No crystal balls, trances, or shrouded secrets, Rebecca simply shuts her eyes and concentrates when it comes to sending and receives messages from her clients.
Adept only at verbal speech, humans ordinarily do not trust their own telepathic abilities. And frankly, society does not readily accept the notion of two-way communication accomplished through images, feelings, thoughts, and emotions. The goal, however, creating a more harmonious relationship between humans and animals, in turn fuels the harmony and interconnection of all living things.

There are many times, according to Rebecca, when she has communicated with abused or abandoned animals that are in a new home. Many of these pets continue to be frightened, are withdrawn and even will hide from their people even though a loving new family has adopted them. "After I talk to them and they understand their people love them and are going to keep them safe, or that this is now their 'forever' home most transform - come out of their shell, stop hiding or cowering and begin to develop their true personalities. Sometimes all it takes is an opportunity for the animal to be heard by it's people," explains Rebecca.
It seems that when pets 'tell' their story, there is an emotional healing that takes place, in Rebecca's experiences. Particularly impressive to me was Rebecca's willingness to give away her techniques and encourage pet owners to seek their own deeper communication with their beloved pets.
The day's triumph was the truce negotiated between Rumer, the cat-terrorizing shepherd mix, and her harried owner. Rebecca relayed Rumer's request: "Lots of BIG plush toys" for distraction and dissipating her nervous energy as well as more time walking outside one-on-one with her human. In turn, Rumer promised to try really hard to curb her herding tendencies and ignore the cats, even though, according to Rumer, it is the cats who initiate all the trouble!
