I would like to introduce the gorgeously handsome Frank - a 16 week old Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy!
❤️ Background
Anyone who has had a puppy knows separation anxiety is real! Frank's training had been going swimmingly until a dreaded day he had to stay at the vets to undergo a procedure. Understandably, this had a detrimental impact on Frank.
Frank's owner called me as following this visit, as he was showing signs of stress and anxiety, no longer being confident to go outside on his own and generally being more clingy to his human. He was also stressed about going in the car - after all, it was the car that took him to the vet! Frank had starting panting and sweating through the pads on his paws.
💚 Treatment
Communication - I would not advertise myself as an animal communicator as I am not a psychic medium and do not have deep conversations with animals. However, I do use communication to connect with them to ascertain how they are feeling and identify any pain or discomfort so I can decide how best I can treat them. It also helps me give any advice to their owners.
Reiki - I use distance reiki for dogs as I find this works better than hands on. Distance reiki is a crazy concept to understand and as I am not into physics, I am happy to know that it works and Frank's testimony proves that! There is more information on my website.
There are benefits to distance reiki - Frank's first session was during the last heatwave and it meant that he did not have to go out in the heat or go in the car which would have caused him more anxiety. For the owner, it means you do not have make time for an appointment as you do not have to be present when reiki is being sent to your animal.
Trapped emotions- if a person or an animal experiences a traumatic or difficult situation, a negative emotion can become stuck in the body. This trapped emotion can cause emotional and physical ill health. These emotions need to be released and can bring about an immediate change in behaviour or improvement in health.
For Frank, the trapped emotions which I released included anxiety, insecurity and abandonment.
💜 Successful outcome
Following his first session, Frank returned to his usual chilled self, being happy to go outide and stay there by himself. The second session focused on his fear of the car and following this, Frank is no longer showing signs of stress and his sweaty paws have stopped! I am confident that his fear has been removed as he now sits by the car waiting to get in 😊
Sending a big reiki hug to Frank and his human for letting me share their story 🩷
