SHOW ME YOUR ID, PLEASE!

Please keep current identification tags on your pet at all times, consider microchipping as reinforcement. Microchipping has not been perfected, but it could mean the difference of you reuniting with your pet or them being euthanized. Let's do whatever we need to do for the safety of our beloved animal partners.

IMAGINE THIS!

If you want to make sure your animal partner understands what you are telling them, picture what you are saying to them. To do this, first imagine a blank. T.V. or movie screen, and show them what you are saying, with a feeling of love. For example, if you want your cat to let you sleep until the sun comes up, visualize the scene of you sleeping, then the sun rising, and them waking you up. Don't visualize what you don't want, always talk to them about what behavior you want. Remember while you are doing this, to put the feelings of love in it. If you are telling your animal partner that they will be coming with you to the store, you can show them a picture of the two of you leaving your house, getting into the car and going. They will LOVE that you are communicating with them, in this manner. They will definitely understand what you are saying to them.

There are lots of guided meditations out there, so if you need to practice how to visualize or imagine, these guided meditations will help you greatly.

COME VISIT US!

Have a little extra time on your hands? The animals at the shelter near you would LOVE for you to come and visit them. If you're a dog lover, take one on a nice walk or run. Love cats....go and talk to them, tell them how handsome or beautiful they are. :) If you're afraid to 'take on' their energy, or that you'll want to adopt them all, before you go, do a quick protection exercise. Ask that your aura be surrounded by a trellis of roses, to protect you from any negative energy. Ganesh and/or Archangel Michel are great help in protection, so you can call on them to protect you from taking on any emotion.

So go spend some time with some adorable fuzzy friends! They love visitors, and the dogs always need to run, run, run!! Don't feel bad for not taking one home, if it's not right for you, they'll love the visit.

MESSAGES FROM THE ANIMALS!

Last Thursday, I was in Tampa doing the radio interview with Eluv, live in the studio. She was asking me if the animals had anything to tell us, this is what they said:

'Too much worry and stress - love each other more. Take it easy, play more! Stop worrying about the future - be in the moment.'

Their next message was:
'Adopt us please, many 'fancy' animals at the shelter, don't need to buy'.

And finally, they said:
' We are part of the family, treat us as such. Just like humans, we like to be respected'. Then they said, 'We love you'.

All such beautiful messages, and I know I needed to be reminded to take it easy and play more!

I'm now on the new time on Eluv's Ultrasounds radio show. The show is now from 11:00pm(EST)-1:00am, and I go on around 11:15pm, depending on where the track is. (88.5FM, Tampa). If you can't stay up, or you're not in Tampa, you can listen on-line for one week. (http://www.wmnf.org/programs/335

RUN, RUN, RUN!!!

Looking to adopt a dog? It's important to research the type of breed you are interested in adopting. Do you love the outdoors, go for hikes and bike rides and want an animal companion to run along side you? Not as active...maybe a dog that doesn't require as much exercise is the right fit for you. Remember to keep THEIR needs in mind, and be honest with yourself about what you are ready to do for your animal companion. Of course all dogs need to go out and run, but there are certain breeds that require a lot.

When dogs who require a lot of exercise don't get what they need, they don't know what to do with that excess energy and start becoming aggressive, or acting out in other ways. Let's help them stay balanced by doing our part, they will appreciate and love us for it.

Have fun choosing the right dog for you and your family! Remember shelters are full of wonderful, loving dogs, so please adopt!

THINK POSITIVE!

Is your animal suffering from some arthritis, or any type of illness or other physical condition? They would love for you to focus on what's good and healthy with them. Tell them how much you love them and how much you enjoy their company. They do not want you to focus on what's 'wrong' with them, and they definitely don't want you to feel sorry for them. Look at dogs who have three legs. They don't care, they're running around just like any other dog. They are happy! They want to be treated like everyone else!

MOMENT BY MOMENT...

Animals are our great teachers about staying in the moment. They are experiencing life moment by moment. They live in the present. What a gift to learn from our furry friends. Have you noticed that you are dwelling on the past or dreading the future? Learn from our animal partners to know that the most important thing to do is to live now, focusing our attention on the beautiful moments in our daily life.

You can even ask your pet for help to stay in the moment. Just say, 'Max,(or whatever your pets' name is).. please help me stay in the moment like you', and then thank them. They will LOVE that you've asked them for assistance and they are more than ready to assist you. Trust that they will send you the necessary energy to honor your request.

Life is so much easier when we stay in the present and eliminate any fear about our past and/or futures. Let our animal partners help us.
