Submit your Questions for the October 14, 2017 Q&A call

Hi everyone,
This is a picture of Chelsea, a horse I rescued last year from a very bad situation. She is currently recovering from a pulled suspensory ligament after fireworks in the area of the farm in May 2017. Is there something I can do to help her heal emotionally that will help her physical recovery? Thank you!

Hi Ann, This is Pam, a fellow student. I would ask you to post this picture and question onto the Forum as well as here. Create a new post with the exact question. Your fellow students can begin right now in helping you help Chelsea right now. Then when October call comes around we can have Val check in. Yes I do believe you can help her. Post on the forum. I will do my part in communicating with her ok?

Hi all, last month I posted a question about Ruby and there was no time. I need to share my experience with Ruby yesterday. Yesterday 16th September a few hours after our daily walk with Ruby, I could see there was something not right with Ruby. I called him to go outside, but he just could not get up, I examined him and he was completely lame especially his hind legs. He vomited a bit but when it was super time for him, he wanted his food, so I gave only ½ of it which he ate while I was holding him up. For the rest he was just lying there, but it did not seem as if he was in pain? I carried him to bed that night and planned with my husband that he would stay behind with him in the morning while I went for our daily walk with Stella.
What happened next is a Miracle: On the morning of 17th, I went to close the door so that Ruby would not hear us leave but Stella was faster than me and managed to jump near Ruby. The next thing Ruby got up as excited as anything and started running and jumping up with excitement (probably for his walk) I could not believe my eyes, he was his normal self and better, so we decided to take him for the walk anyway. He then walked as usual and asked for his food early that morning. Till now he is “great”.
As Ruby has been struggling with his hips, hind knees for almost 6 years, I keep managing it with good food, homeopathic supplements and some energy healing – but it has never been this bad. What happened???? I am so grateful and appreciative to ?????????????

Hi Val, after reading your story about a 3 year old quarter horse filly who was in training by Danny I wondered: How does an animal know the meaning of a name, and how can they choose a name for themselves? “She told us that her “real” name was Wind Dancer” and “He finally agreed to call her Windy” This is not the first time I hear such a story!!!

Hi Ilse, that is an interesting question. Often, when I have new cats / kittens I ask them for their name and many times a name that I would never have come up with pops up in my mind. So far, I never wondered how they got that name.

My dog Maddie seems to be very uncomfortable meeting other dogs. My friend brought over her 4 month old puppy and Maddie stayed high up and away from the pup. I even presented the pups rear end to her twice hoping she’d want to meet and play with her. She’s been around our 2 different friends dogs that are older like 8-9 yrs and they won’t play because of their age with her when she tries to get them to engage, but at least she’s fine with them. Our groomers dog Bindy who’s about 4-5 yrs she loves to go see, I’m wondering if she’d like her to come over to our house to play? Maddie is 1 1/2 yrs old. Why is she so fearful? She even frantically pulled away from a 8 week old pup and last month she snapped at another very sweet dog! She wasn’t like this before she turned 9 months, that’s when she changed and started having “stranger danger” to people and dogs. She’s missing out on so much fun! Would she like a playmate? I’d like to get a rescue dog but I won’t until she gets comfortable with meeting and playing with other dogs.

I’m also having trouble with Maddie, scratching and digging on the furniture and pushing toys under furniture and then trying to “dig” them out. Can you ask her to stop this? She also resists taking her glucosamine blend chewable for her subluxation problem with her knees, she spits them out of the pill pockets. Maybe if she could understand why she needs to take them it’d be less of a struggle. Thanks!

Hi Val,
I would like to know what Snoopy is barking at so much in the middle of the night lately. I never see anything. Maybe raccoons or coyotes? Also can she see Smokey, Sadie, Tiger or Cleo the cat in spirit occasionally?

Have Smokey or Sadie reincarnated yet? I know Tiger did already which is soooo cool!
Thanks Val! You are sooo awesome! I love your spooky spirit stories! And reincarnation stories. I remember the horses in the barn with Indians I think. Looking forward to this October call! :o)

Hi Val,
Snoopy is still biting at her arm. I gave her a Colloidal Oatmeal bath. Just wondering if it was not a bug bite after all. Is she nervous? I am still looking for another companion dog for her to keep her company while I’m at work. Just found a rescue site with a Wolfhound mix named Shaggy which was surrendered because his owner died. He is 6 years old. I’m going to find out more info today. I put socks on Snoopy yesterday. She took them off. I took her to the beach and give her walks every day. Just want to make sure she is not in pain.

Val, KoKo has not showed any interest in eating. Her last meal was 30ml’s of food from the syringe when feeding tube was in Wednesday morning. I made chicken bone broth and she won’t touch it. I have given her cell salts and that is helping with her nausea. My question is one that we were unable to address on our Laser Session – what sign does KoKo want to give me to inform me that she would like help with the cross over into Spirit? I do get a sense of her inner strength to go on her own, but….should she need me to call a Vet into the house to administer help what is the sign she will give me?
I would like to compare it to what I think it is. Thank you ever so Much! Pam

Hi Val. This is the question I posted last month for which there was not time to address:

What is (are) Taffy’s purpose(s) in this lifetime? Specifically, what is her purpose with me? What is her purpose with my husband?

FYI, she was awesome during Hurricane Irma the day after our last call when you spoke with her about what was coming! After the early morning thunderstorm, to which she reacted as she typically does, she was calm throughout the day and evening. When we were in the closet (our safe room) when tornadoes were in our area, she remained calm as well! Thanks!
