Aggressive Dog Mirrors Owner's Behavior!

"Over the last four years in working with you, I have learned that in order to help my Shetland Sheepdog, Kati, I must first look within myself and heal the imbalances in my thinking, feeling, and physical self. Kati was mostly a reflection or mirror of what was going on inside of me. If I was afraid or angry, Kati would react with barking and fear/aggression behaviors. If I was ambivalent or frustrated because I was unsure of my inner strength, Kati would test the limits.

With your help I was able to see what I was doing instead of thinking I needed to fix her. You gave me clear directions and encouraged me to experiment with different behaviors. You helped me balance my emotions, calming myself first so that Kati can be calm. Our walks are more pleasant, she calms down when I ask her to, and she alerts me when it’s necessary.

My relationship with Kati has reached a level beyond simple obedience training. You’ve made it possible for us to experience a sweet cooperation that will only grow richer.

Thank you again." --Joyce T and Kati, Dallas, TX

 
       

       
   

Eating issues Resolved

"I'd been hot on Val's trail and finally nailed her down to be interviewed on our radio show. It was the first interview ever where I forgot to go to commercial break because I was so engaged in what she was saying! Her information is so leading edge and compelling! I loved it so much I immediately hired her to work with my dog! After one session I totally changed MY behavior with my dog and a ton of stress melted off my shoulders. Val helped me with her eating and joint issues. Val rocks the animal world and she has great compassion while doing it!" - Jeanna Gabellini

Puppies Are Healthier and Happier

"Val, I am so appreciative of you. I feel like I have so much more control of myself. Thank you for helping me with my confidence. We were talking about how good the puppies are now (they were driving us crazy before!) and how much you have helped me with them. Their health has improved along with their behavior. I wish, I wish, I had known you when Alex and Bear Bear were alive. Their lives would have been much healthier and happier. I wish I had known to talk to them like you’ve taught me to do with Honey. I get a look of true understanding from Honey and Katie now. I used to dread going home – now, I can't wait to get home to see them. I love them so. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!" - Angela S, San Antonio, TX

 
       

       
   

Helping in the Transition of Older Dog - Help Brining in New Dog

"I am so very grateful to know Val. I think the best thing I have learned from her is our animal friends have a purpose in their lives. Lessons we learn from them with open hearts give them joy and help both travel the journey of life in richness.

I first contacted Val when my dog, Mugsy was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma. I wanted to make sure the road my dog and I were to travel was paved with the best decisions I could make. My consultations with Val reassured me, gave me direction and such comfort when it was time for him to leave.

When we welcomed Bernice, my new puppy, into the family I again called Val. I wanted to make sure I was raising a well balanced dog and needed help with some behavior challenges. And we are continuing to learn how to better communicate with each other. I also wanted to have our other older dog understand all the recent changes. Val helped us on so many levels.

It's not an animal thing, it's not a human thing, it's a 'being' thing with a deep understanding and feeling of peace and harmony without boundaries. I thank you Val. -- Rita H., Dallas, TX

 
       

       
   

Finding Closure After the Loss of Their Puppy

"On behalf of my daughter and myself we would like to say how incredibly impressed we were with Val's God-given ability to communicate with our one year old puppy who died of mysterious causes. Clark had two bouts of very serious illness within a 5 week period that shut down his kidneys. After taking him to our beloved Vet and an Internist, they could not find the cause of his illness. He ended up in the Pet Emergency room and died hours later. We were both saddened by this tragedy and what made it so much worse is that we didn't know if it was something we could have prevented.

While attending a church class, I was telling someone in the class about our dilemma. It was then that Val's name came up. With nothing to lose and everything to gain, we scheduled a reading with her. The reading we had was so incredibly powerful. Val was able to get in touch with our puppy and get some definitive answers even the autopsy didn't show. In addition to getting the health answer we were looking for, we received some very comforting information as well. Val is a very kind sweet lady with an amazing gift. I would recommend her services to anyone who has lost a pet or anyone who would like information about their existing pet. Her knowledge and insight are amazing." - Sara F. & Natalie H., San Diego, California, October 17, 2007

 
       

       
   

Dog's Significant Improvement in Behavior After Move

"Wow! I was blown away by how on target you were during our recent session. You answered questions I had not even thought to ask, and provided such wonderful insight about Finley's overall health and wellbeing. I went into our session with a healthy amount of skepticism, however, you proved to not only be the real deal....but much to my surprise, since our session last week, Finley's whole demeanor has changed. He has more energy, seems happier and more like the dog we knew before the stress of our recent relocation. You are a tremendous resource and I hope to have a chance to work with you again. Thanks again for all your help!!!" -- Jo Ann C., Tulsa, Oklahoma


 
       

       
   

Changed Behavior Helped This Dog's Hips and Back Pain!

"Three and a half months ago I was devastated with the news that my sweet, loving little dog had advanced liver disease. Armed with nothing but a prescription for antibiotics and Denisile and a "wait to see what happens" from the vet I read everything I could get my hands on from the Internet and ordered in all probably $1,000 worth of supplements, ebooks and found myself shopping for the best quality of anything I thought Willy might be able to eat and keep down.

After 45 days Willy seemed to be improving remarkably. I live in a heavily mosquito infested area and since Willy had already skipped one month of heart wormer, I gave him his dose and he crashed three days later. The vomiting, jaundice etc. were back and we were at square one again only the vet didn't seem to think that the heart wormer was to blame.

Willy was begging for the worst kinds of food (cheese and ham) and he started to swell with ascites. He got so big and uncomfortable and I thought we were losing the battle. In my researching the Internet I saw Val Heart's site and contacted her for an appointment.

At the time I was irritated at her fee and in the back of my mind thought about cancelling it. The following week in my work, the new clients I attracted seemed to want me to work for a lot less than I was worth so I recognized this as a message from the universe and started to open my mind about the price.

While waiting for her consultation my little dog started having tremors and couldn't walk and it was so heart breaking I decided upon rising one day to have him euthanized when I got home from work. I called Val and left her a message telling her this and she called me back within an hour and asked me to consider waiting if I could until after her session which was 4 days away. When I got home, Willy greeted me with so much enthusiasm, I knew Val was right and we scheduled an ultrasound from an internal specialist for the next week.

As an accountant and very much a “show me how this works” person, I was admittedly skeptical about working with an animal communicator. Then to find out she wouldn’t be meeting us in person where I could really SEE her communicating with Jake, I thought “This is crazy!”. Fortunately for Jake, I was motivated enough to understand his pain and what was causing it, that I moved forward with working with Val to get some answers. And that is exactly what we got! Val was able to connect to Jake telepathically and “talk” to him about the level of pain, where it was coming from, what activities were causing it and making it better or worse and then explain to him why he needed to change his behavior to avoid hurting himself. WHICH HE DID!!! That’s when I knew this was really “working”!

In addition, I found out that he was interested in getting a second dog and what he would like in a companion. Four weeks later, we had our perfect match and Jake & Jenny are like peas and carrots. Had I not gotten Jake’s “input” to finding a second dog, we would have ended up with a very different situation. Val has been incredibly helpful in helping me understand what was going on with Jake so we could take the right steps forward in healing his hips & back. With a little “blind faith” and being open to something that doesn’t necessarily make logical sense, you’ll find some great answers from your pet that will go a long way in understanding them. And a few comical surprises along the way as well!" -- T Putnam, Austin, TX

Dog Behavior Improves - Now We Are a Real Team

"I was at my wits end, struggling with my dog's out of control behavior. I'd tried everything I could think of, and since I am a dog trainer and compete with my dogs, that's saying a LOT! But, nothing was working so I decided to give Val a call. I was so amazed!

In one session, my dog's behavior changed and I could tell we were working together as a team for the first time. It was like she understood me now where she hadn't before. AND, I was so impressed, that I began working with Val for my own health problems. I am happy to say that I am so much better, life is easier, my relationship with myself and my husband has improved, my business is taking off.... I don't know where I'd be without Val -- don't want to know!! She's a remarkable resource and facilitator for me and my clients too. Thank You, Val!!" -- Patty M., Montana

Schnauzer's Aggressive Behavior Improves

"We started working with Val for our minature schnauzer, Heidi. Heidi had severe anxiety during thunderstorms and more importantly serious biting problems. From a young age she snapped at strangers and occasionally us, and we were very worried about her attacking children. It was getting to the point of questioning whether we still wanted to keep her. This was very distressing, because we are very attached to her.

Also, walking with Heidi had become a nightmare -- extremely stressful for all of us until we dreaded taking her out! If she saw another person or dog, she'd go nuts and we were terrified she'd get in a bad fight. Now, our walks are uneventful -- which means Good! After we worked with Val, we went out and encountered a daschund that day. Heidi ran about half way to her, then stopped and turned around to come back to us! So it went very well, just like we'd asked her to do.

Through Val communicating with Heidi and helping us communicate better with her, things have vastly improved. We have all been able to relax more. And, Heidi's back and neck problems have also greatly improved. The best part is beginning to be able to love and accept her as an important part of our family again." -- Steven and Bridgett H., LaGrange, Texas

 
       

       
   

Simple Trick Helps Dog's "Potty" Problem

"Here is a little success story of my own. Frankie, my young Springer Spaniel, occassionally needs to go potty in the night. I can't hear him scratch at the door when I am sleeping. I told him that he could bark to wake me up. He replied that he didn't want to wake up Daddy. So I told him to lick my face until I wake up and I will let him out. So that's what he does! No more accidents!" -- Inez S.

 
       

       
   

Support in Times of Transition

Val, I am so grateful to you for your insight on my dog’s condition. I thought she was dying and had been told to put her down, but just couldn’t bear the thought. I was in agony about making this decision. You gave me such emotional peace of mind about it, and your advice made such an impact that it has completely turned my attitude around. I cannot overstate this. You gave me back my power, and the emotional freedom to enjoy my life, even with all the stresses of no job, unemployment denied, appeals in process, and my Lily fading away. What a powerful gift! Thank You! – Joyce L., Austin, TX
