Alana has volunteered to host her Dog, Coco, as our next Featured Animal Teacher (FAT) during July 2025. You will enjoy getting to know this wonderful animal teacher.
We encourage all of you to connect with Coco now and throughout the month.
Tune into Coco first and see what you sense. It’s not just about getting words although that’s a lot of fun when it happens. Remember that telepathic comes from ‘tele’ meaning over a distance like telephone and television, and ‘pathic’ that comes from pathos. So literally telepathic is emotion over a distance.
How does Coco feel to you? Happy? Sad? Excited? etc. Ask Coco ice breaker questions as you might with any new teacher. It’s not about “getting the right answer” but about connecting with a wonderful animal.
Important Update for Gold & Platinum Members
There will not be a Q&A call in the month of July, as Val will be taking a well-deserved sabbatical.
During this time, we encourage you to continue practicing and stay engaged by posting your animal conversations for Alana in the Facebook group or your member area. She’s here to support you while Val is away!
Have fun practicing your communication skills in this supportive setting! Lots of interesting discoveries happen here.

Hi Alana,
I just had a chat with your lovely Coco. I found him to be a very friendly boy who was very happy to talk. He told me he was the FAT this month, so would have lots of people talk to him and he was very excited about that.
As I connected in, I felt him jump up to greet me, then run on ahead a little and come back to round me up and encourage me in the right direction.
I asked if he was a working dog and was told not in the sense that he had a job given to him by his humans, but that he had his own job. When I asked what it was, he said to protect his people. He said he runs around you all to chase away the nasties that you can’t see. I asked if there were many nasties about and was told “no, because I’m there to chase them off.”
I asked what he’s been doing today and got an image of him roaming around in a big garden and digging a hole. When I asked why he was digging he said rabbits. He liked their smell and they were fun to chase, though he doesn’t hurt them.
I asked if he’s had a life here before and he said he thinks so, but can’t remember. He asked if I had been here before too, and I said the same to him 🙂
He didn’t feel like a very old soul to me, but he didn’t feel like a very young soul either, so I do feel he has had a few incarnations.I asked if I could talk to him again and he said yes, please do.
Thanks for letting us chat with him. He’s lovely.

Hi Melanie,
Sorry for the late reply. It was my grandma 87th bday yesterday. Anyway, thank you so much for chatting with Coco. I connected with him Monday to let him know that he was the FAT for the month of July. He sure was very excited to hear that. He said to me finally it’s my turn to get the attention and to pass on some wisdom to others with a big ole smiling face. Yes he likes to jump up on your side to greet you then he will run on ahead then come back if you don’t follow him when you let him out of his yard. Yeah I never gave him a job. I told him that he can do whatever he wanted to do. Yes ma’am he does protect us. He is our outdoor protector. He will sound the alarm(barking)if anything is happening that my parents need to be aware of. He also protect the property by going around and mark the property lines. Oh wow so that’s why he does all of those running around. That make perfect sense that he is chasing away any nasties.. I’m so happy to hear that since I had questioned it in my head a couple of times back then. lol I’m not sure about the garden part since my parents don’t have one but he does dig holes in his yard to help him to stay cool. Perhaps it was an future image since I would love to have an garden when I get my own place one day. Yeah I picked up that he has had a few incarnations as well. Aww that was so sweet of him. He will definitely enjoy talking with you again so I sure hope that you do talk to him again. 😁 You’re so welcome. Yes ma’am he is a very lovely soul. Awesome job communicating with him! 👏
Much Love & Gratitude,
Alana

Alana, I’ll describe the area where I saw him digging in case it helps you to recognise it going forward, unless it was a past life. It was a very clear image I saw.
It’s not I place I recognise personally. As I was looking forward, I sensed towards a building, though I didn’t see it, I saw him digging on a grassy patch towards my right. I sesnsed the area where I was standing was a bit more gravelly.
To the right of him was a wired fence (3 wires foing across) with a big tree behind it, which I sensed led into a woodland area.Thinking on it’s interesting to separate how my clairvoyance and cognizance worked together to piece this scene together. Please let me know if you do come across this place, as I’d be interested to know if this was really my clairs, or my imagination, though I suppose if it was a past life I may never know – lol.

Hi Mel,
Oh my goodness thank you so much for describing the area that you saw Coco digging in as it now does resonates with me. No love it wasn’t your imagination, it really was your Clairs! Perhaps there is an important lesson here from Coco to you? The lesson thought just popped in my head. lol I did set the intention for all of us to experience what we needed to hear/see, what we needed to learn from Coco etc. I also asked Divine/the Universe and the Angels for help with this as well. Anyway, after I read your post, I went to mediate on it while I was cooking breakfast. As I was scrambling the eggs, I had the aha moment. lol There is an area a few feet behind the 2 barn/chicken coop that used to a garden for our cucumbers a few years ago. That area is in front of the wire fence with a big tree behind then both a gravel road and a woodland area behind the tree. Also we have a gravel driveway close to it as well. I have noticed him hanging out there quite a bit lately when I’m mowing his yard. Also we do have lots of rabbits that hangs out on the property in that area as well. So yes I can take it! Beautiful job Mel!! I’m so proud of you! 👏 Again, thank you for sharing it with me.
Lots of love and blessings to you! 💚🙏Much Love & Gratitude,
Alana

Hi Alana.. I didn’t read any comments just to get a clear connection with your Coco! Coco was very excited to talk to me, and said he’s a little more laid back these last little while. He sits and listens intensely with his tail wagging when your talking to him. He wondered where you went, your gone long time. I explained that you moved to your own place and that he would be living there soon with you possibly. He really misses you, everyday he thinks about you! Loves car/truck rides and tummy rubs and behind his ears on back of his head. His tummy is a little upset today but not to bad he said.. about a 3 he said. He wonders around the property most of the day and he said he doesn’t like all these flies around him bugging him. He showed me a little blurred vision from his right eye, maybe cateract.. He said I am much more laid back and chilled then I was. I hope this resonates with you Alana.. so nice to talk to your Coco again!
Love and Light,
Debbie-
Hi Debbie,
Thank you so much for chatting with Coco. I’m sure that he enjoyed it since he is by himself a lot outside since my parents don’t want him in the house but I’m working on changing that so soon he won’t be by himself anymore. Oh my sweet boy, that made me cried. Soon my sweet Angel we will be together again. Soon… But yeah I moved out of my parents place a year ago but I do come and visit him twice to 3 times a week. Just not these past 2 weeks since I am in Illinois visiting my Gram and the rest of the family. I plan on traveling back home either Thursday or Friday so just a few more days and we will see each other again my sweet Angel. Aww I miss him so much too. That’s awesome to know that he loves car rides since I wondered about it and was planning on taking him on them more often. That sucked about the upset tummy. I wonders what caused it. But I will send him some healing energy to help with it. Yeah unfortunately the flies are terrible there since the horses hang out in that area as well. My mom used to have these flies trap hanging around the barn area but not this year. Yeah his eyes especially the right one is cloudy. The vet did mention possibly cataracts. He does wag his tail a lot when you are talking to him and he will bark as he is responding to you. lol He definitely has become more laid back and chilled lately. He will be 15 in September. Well done Debbie! Again thank you for chatting with him. Lots of love and blessings to you! 💚
Much Love & Light,

Hello Alana,
I just tried to connect with Coco – here is what I got:
I connected through breathing and he was barking and going round in circles with high energy excitement. He has the energy of a young pup.
I asked what he could show me, teach me.
He showed me sniffing and walking along a country path or lane with longish grass on either side.
He said: I’m my mum’s favourite – and laughed like it was a joke.
I heard fish – not sure if that’s food or something else. Feels like it’s something else.
He loves games – he showed me a ball. He showed me the joy of running on the earth and connecting with his feet. He showed me barking with other dogs and leading them to play. He said play is the way to learn about the earth. He showed me taking such joy in daily life: scents, earth, others. He is a whirlwind of joy. He showed me giving your cheek a lick to show how much he loves you. His mission is to teach joy by showing joy. He loves chasing rabbits. He licked me goodbye. And then started going round and round in circles for fun.
Thank you Coco – what joy your brought me- I found myself smiling and I’m still smiling now. Thank you.
Rosemary-
Hi Rosemary,
Thank you so much for connecting with Coco. Yes he sure does have high energy excitement and energy of a young pup. That is probably what he does do on those days that he goes wondering on his own. Interesting since I actually don’t have a favorite as I try to love both of them evenly but perhaps he feels like that he isn’t a favorite since he is stuck outside while Pup Pup is in my parents house. My parents don’t want him in the house because he marks everything and their dogs don’t get along with him as well. Unfortunately it is their house their rules. But soon after I move and get my own place, the 3 of us will be together inside. No more separation.. The only fish that I can think of would be a salmon flavor kibble I used to feed him for a while before I swapped to a chicken flavor one since he wasn’t eating well and was losing weight. Or perhaps he is talking about the fishes in my parent’s pond. That’s good to know that he loves games. That is twice now he mentioned a ball but he doesn’t have one so perhaps he is telling me that he would like one and would like to play ball with me. I am going to buy one and see.. Yes he does loves to run and connect with his feet. Aww that is a good lesson. Yes he does lick my cheek when he get a chance. That is an amazing mission. He does bring me joy. I personally haven’t seen him chase rabbits but Melanie mentioned him digging holes in the old garden for rabbits and we do see a lot of rabbits in the yard so I wouldn’t be surprised if he does chase them. lol Aww I’m so happy to hear that he brought you joy and made you smile!! You’re so welcome and again thank you. Well done Rosemary! 👏 Lots of love and blessings to you! 💚🙏

Thank you so much for your feedback. So the fish is definitely the fish in the pond – that fits. And the comment about the favourite was a joke – I didn’t explain that very well, sorry – he knows you don’t have favourites and he is very open to sharing your love with everyone – but he loves extra attention! R 🙂
-
Hi again Rosemary,
You’re so welcome! Okay awesome for the fish part. Oh it’s no problem about the favorite comment. Didn’t bother me or anything like that. 😁 That’s funny since that is exactly what Pup Pup would say as well about loving the extra attention. Looks like I need a clone of me to help me give both of them extra attention.. 😆 Much Love & Blessings to you! 💚🙏

Hi Alana and Coco!
Coco and I just had a lovely little chat! What a sweet heart he is! ❤️ Tonight, 7/14/25 at 7:15 pm US Central Time, I connected with him and here is how our talk went. ☺️I asked Coco how he was doing this evening. He was so excited and when I asked why, he said he saw his mom!! He said he is so happy he got to see you. He misses you and loves you! He said, “I can’t wait until I get to go home with her and stay. Just being in her presence fills my spirit and heart with such peace, comfort, joy. She needs me with her. I help her. She knows it.”
I asked how he felt in his body, anything he needs us to know. He said, “I have a small tummy ache, gas, but okay otherwise. It’ll pass soon. Just took a big poop but still a little achy in the tummy.”
He said he stays in his pen by himself and he gets lonely at times but said that will change soon. He says he feels it.
I asked if he could share some wisdom with me to help me on my journey. He said, “spirit animals are real. Seek yours. You have many. Mom knows hers. There’s something to them, ya know. Very important. I have them too, ya know.” I asked if he would tell me who some of his spirit animals are and he said, “one of mine is a cricket, also a hawk, and an alligator.” I said, wow, an alligator! Then he gave the biggest butt wag of happiness! LOL 😄
I asked if he had any messages for his mom and he said, “I love mom very much! I can’t wait to go home with her!” ❤️
I thanked him for sharing his time with me, told him I loved him, and blew him a kiss. He is such a precious boy. Thank you for sharing him with us!! Much love and hugs to you, Coco, and Pup Pup! ❤️

Hi Shelly!
Thank you so much for chatting with Coco! He sure is a sweetheart! Yep he got to see me Friday after I was away in Illinois visiting my gram and rest of the family for 2 weeks. Aww I was so happy to see him too! I miss and love him as well. I can’t wait for him to come and stay in my new home when that happens. Just waiting patiently for it all to work out in divine timing. Aww that is so touching.. It made me cried to hear that him being in my presence fill his spirit and heart with such peace, comfort and joy.. 🥰 I’m not sure if you are on Animal Talk Coaching & Mastery Club group on Facebook or not. I think I saw a post of yours a while back. I am not usually on there unless to share my experiences which there has been tons of them especially with meeting my spirit animals lately. But I added pictures of the post on here just in case. Anyway, I posted on there a while ago about my experience with Coco on healing his tummy ache. But yeah Debbie has mentioned a tummy ache as well. Unfortunately yes he does stay in his pen by himself and does get lonely quite a bit. My parent don’t want him in the house since he mark everything and there is already 3 other male dogs in there that doesn’t quite get along with him either. I just hope that both him and Pup Pup will get along together in the new place and hopefully Coco doesn’t mark inside the house as well. I know that he does it as a protection thing. I already explained to him that he doesn’t have to do his protection marking since I will have the inside protected so we will see how that goes. But yes that will change soon. He is a good feeler. 😁 Oh yeah you definitely have spirit animals. We all do. Yes I now know most of mine after an exciting past couple of weeks meeting them. Yes they are very important. Very powerful guidance you can receive from them! Really? I wouldn’t have thought of that.. Wow that is so freaking cool that they have spirit animals as well! Wow an alligator 🐊.. So awesome!! Yep Coco does do a lot of butt wag of happiness. 🤣 Aww Coco I love you very much and I can’t wait for you to get to come home to me too! ❤️ Aww so adorable! You’re so welcome and thank you again so much for chatting with him! Well done Shelly! 👏
Much love & blessings to you! 💚🙏

Hi Alana,
Thank you for offering Coco to be the Featured Animal Teacher.
I’m tuning in…
He says he’s always here …for you. And doesn’t necessarily understand your blankness sometimes or not being in tune with him. He says he figures it’s human stuff…that…probably…doesn’t…really…matter…in the grand scheme of things…to the Soul…
He’s saying he likes gravy beef and corn beef hash.
I am hearing à very deep voice from Coco.
He’s saying he wants to live with you. He has things to do with you. Helping and teaching. He wants to be pampered, too. He says the other humans don’t understand him. He means your parents.He says purple is his favorite color- the crown chakra color.
He would like something that color or lavender.He’s saying he’s going to take a nap now, please don’t disturb me haha just kidding. Not much disturbs me. He’s inviting me sometime to nap with him. He says he’s a good cuddler and my mom (you, Alana), need it. It’s now 2:03 pm EST.
I Love you, Coco! He’s sending me Love, too:-)
-
Hi Martha,
You’re so welcome and Thank you so much for chatting with Coco! Aww that my sweet Angel! The blankness is probably me doubting myself as I still battles with doubt sometimes. Really? I would have to look up corn beef hash as I never heard of it before. That’s so good to know so I can cook that for him when we get our own place. Aww I’m so happy to hear that he wants to come and live with me. I was hoping that he would. Oh I definitely plan on pampering him a lot more.. Good I’m glad that he has things to do with me. I love learning from both him and Pup Pup. Yeah sadly my parents aren’t open to animal communication or anything spiritually. Really? That is so cool to know. I honestly didn’t know that animals have a favorite color like we do. That’s so freaking awesome to be learning new stuffs.. Okay I will see if I can find a toy or something that is purple or lavender. Oh my goodness I went to take a nap at that exact time.. Maybe we cuddled in our sleep/dream. I do miss having someone to cuddle with. I used to have 3 dogs in my bed with me when I was living at my parents. Aww he really likes/loves you as I don’t think he would invite just anybody to take a nap with him. Well done Martha! Again thank you for chatting with him! Lots of love and blessings to you! 💚🙏

Hi Alana, thanks for allowing us to speak with Coco. I haven’t looked at any earlier posts, including mine when I spoke to him from the ATH page!
Coco greets me quietly, not lacking in energy, but a bit subdued…..when I ask if he’s ok, he sounds a bit tired (I hope I’m not getting this as I’m tired myself?) I don’t know if the weather there or something external is affecting him, but he seems to want to rest. Is there some issue around his head area?
He is warm and soft to the touch, and the aura has flashes of green. His favorite activity seems to be just looking out and watching the world go by.
He is an old soul, wise and contemplative, and his role is to support you in your journey. He seems to be waiting for something to happen.
I hope something resonates with you. Much love and blessings to both of you.

Hi Nita,
You’re so welcome and thank you so much for chatting with Coco! It very well could be the weather since it has been 90-97 degrees with the real feel over 100 degrees. It is so hot and humid here in Mississippi USA. He usually does rest a lot deep in the dirt in his coop to stay cool. Not sure about the head area. I do know that he has some blurred vision in his right eye. The vet said that he has some ear infection going on a couple months ago. Also he had that seizure/stroke from the rat poison back then as well. I wonder if there is something going on with his head. I got a private session with Val coming up in late August. Perhaps it will come up then. I was picking up flashes of green for his aura as well. Well that is about all he can do at the time is to look out and watch the world go by until I moved and get a place for the 3 of us then we will be busy doing things. Yep I picked up that he is an old soul, wise and contemplative as well. That’s awesome as I always love getting support from him on my journey. He is probably waiting for changes to happen like I’m patiently waiting for as well. New beginnings are coming for us. 😁 Yes ma’am lots of stuff resonates with me. Well done Nita! 👏 Again, thank you for chatting with Coco.
Much love & blessings to you as well. 💚🙏Alana

Hi Alana, thanks ever so much for your prompt and encouraging response…am so glad I got something right! I’m lacking in practice and self confidence, and didn’t get much, so it means a lot. Luckily, I couldn’t remember my previous communication with him! I know you’re on the way to a great new beginning, and wish you and your boys the very best. So glad you have a session with Val next month…that will clarify everything. Lots of love and blessings.

Hi Alana,
I spoke with Coco again briefly today. I was trying to focus on getting into my heart space and he told me we were already connected, so could just talk. I asked if he was enjoying being a teacher and he said that he’s a very good teacher and that he was good at his jobs. I agreed and thanked him for helping me previously.
I asked if there was anything I needed to learn, or that he had observed in us humans from communicating with us that he felt we needed to learn. He said we get easily distracted, but that’s ok and that we should just refocus our attention back when we have – just like dogs do.
I then felt my throat getting a bit tight, so I asked if I was picking that up from him. He said no, it was my dog, who was sleeping next to me with his head on my knee. I kept losing focus after that, so he told me I was tired and should rest. He wasn’t wrong. He’s a clever dog.
-
Hi again Mel,
I bet that he enjoyed chatting with you again. I have noticed with some animals doesn’t require much effort in reconnecting with. Yes Coco you are a very good teacher and good at your jobs. 😁 Oh yeah we definitely get distracted. I got distracted the other day when I was chatting with him. 😆 Wow did he know that it was your dog throat getting a bit tight? That truly amazes me. Yeah my spirit team has been telling me lately to rest as I will need the stamina for the changes that will be happening for me. Such a clever boy you are Coco. Thank you so much for chatting with Coco! Much Love & Blessings to you! 💚🙏

Hi Alana,
As I connected with Coco, I felt his excitement and his joyful energy. He seems very energetic, friendly, and loving. I got that he loves getting and giving affection.
I let him start off and I got the image of a beach, and he is running along the sand. He shared that he loves to run around and have fun. He loves to be of service and help others, specifically teaching. I also got an image of him pawing something that seemed unusual to him. I got the sense that it is possibly a toy that is moving and he is very curious about it. He loves the outdoors, going on walks and sniffing new smells. He also loves being petted.
I did a body scan and he seemed to not be in any pain or discomfort. When I was scanning the throat he chimed in and said that sometimes he can be very vocal. Overall, I got that his body feels good.
I asked if he has any dislikes and he shared that he does not like being away from mom. He sent the impression of a dog hotel or boarding place.
I asked if he is satisfied with his food and nutrition. He said he is very satisfied. He eats all kinds of food. I got the sense that it is not necessarily dry food or wet food, but one of those healthy meals for dogs that include different things. Coco said his meals have a lot of variety in them and he knows it’s healthy for him and he enjoys eating it. I asked if he has a favorite treat and I got something brown and crunchy.
I asked if there is anything he wants or needs and he said he could always use more time outside to exercise, but otherwise he is pretty satisfied.
He sent an image of you massaging or putting something on his paws?
I asked if he can tell me anything about his life prior to being with you. I got the impression that he was wandering the streets and was taken to a shelter for a brief time and then came to you.
He also sent me a yellow blanket or cover?
I asked if he has any favorite toys and he said he loves running after balls. He said “anything that moves”.
I got that he sleeps in your room on his doggy bed.
I asked if he has any messages for you and he said- “She knows how much I love her and I enjoy all the activities we get to do together”.
I hope some things resonated!

Hi Tatiana,
Thank you so much for chatting with Coco! You absolutely got his personality down. He does love getting and giving affection. Ooo I may now have to definitely take him with me to the beach before we move. I was thinking about whether I should take the dogs to the beach or not so hearing that verify that I should. Yes he does absolutely loves running around and having fun. Yes I feel that he loves to be of service and help others especially the teaching role as well. He does an extremely excellent job at it. Interesting as I just gave him a purple squeaking bone shaped toy Wednesday so perhaps it is that. Yep we usually go for a short walk around the pasture sniffing the new smells when I am visiting. Oh yes he definitely loves to be petted. lol Yes he can be very vocal as he is the outdoors guard dog at my parents home. He also talk to me a lot when I am walking towards his pen. Awesome! Glad to hear that his body feels good overall. Yes I picked up on that and others did too that he dislikes being away from me. I used to live with my parents there for the longest time but it was time for me to be independent and have my own space so I moved out a year ago to an apartment 15 mins away and I am fixing to move again this time out of state but I will be taking both Coco and Pup Pup with me when I find us a home. He is currently eating kibble but I have been thinking about doing those healthy meals instead of kibble after we move. So there again another verification that I should do it. As far as the treats, he is getting peanut butter rawhide free bones and couple different kind of biscuits that are both brown and crunchy. Yeah he had told me that he would like more outside of his big outdoors pen time before. Sadly my mom won’t let him out more often especially in the evenings since he had ran off on her several times. But when we get our own place, he will be able to come in and out as much as he pleases since I trust him to come back home from exploring the woods. Interesting image you got. I will check his paws out the next time I stop by to visit him to make sure that he doesn’t have something going on with his paws. Oh wow. I wouldn’t be surprised if he was wandering the streets before he was taken to a shelter since I actually did got him from a shelter back in early 2011 when he was a like 8-9 month old puppy. I am not sure about the yellow blanket or cover. Perhaps it is one of his old ones that he used to have that I don’t remember. I had several other people tells that he loves running after balls as well so I just brought him one yesterday and is going to play a game of fetch with him the next time I visit. He is currently sleeping outside but he will have his own bed inside after we move. Yes I sure do knows how much he loves me. 🥰 I’m glad that he enjoys all of the activities we do together. Yes ma’am a lot of things resonated! Well done Tatiana! 👏 By the way, welcome to the AC Club!! So happy that you are here with us!! Again, thank you for chatting with Coco! Lots of love and blessings to you! 💚🙏
Alana
I added a picture of Coco the day after I rescued him from the shelter. 😁
