• Miracle Healing! My Cat Abie Was at Death’s Door
  

  I set up a session with Val when my cat Abraham (Abie) deteriorated suddenly from what I assumed was the arthritis he had been diagnosed with a year earlier.

  Almost overnight he was barely able to move and when he did he growled from pain. He would eat only when I brought his dishes of food and water to his mouth. (Fortunately, he somehow made it to his litter box.) In addition, he quickly developed the symptoms of a cold. I could tell he was in abject misery and I was concerned that he would be permanently incapacitated.

  Val said she felt Abie was having a reaction to the routine vaccinations that he had received several months earlier and that his whole body was inflamed. Because of the arthritis, Val told me that Abie’s immune system was compromised and that he shouldn’t have received the vaccines.

  Before the session was over, Val gently used BodyTalk to help bring some quick relief to Abie.

  Two days after the session with Val, my husband called me at work and said he had found Abie sitting on our living room rug with our other cat Sylvia. Abie got up and walked from our bedroom into the living room to sit on his favorite wool rug by the couch. He would have had to walk a ways to get there. We’re amazed because the night before he was having a hard time even turning around.

  A miraculous feat! I don’t really consider myself skeptical but I was shocked by the sudden turn of events. I realized it was a sign that he would heal completely — and he has. Ten weeks later Abie is doing wonderfully and back to his old self.

  I am so grateful for Val and her gifts as a healer and a teacher. It has changed my life. I recommend her to anyone that has a pet. You’ll learn more than you could ever imagine. ~ Barbara Koonce
• Animal Communication and Senior Dog Care Courses Help JoJo Through Difficult Time
  Dear Val, I want to say thank you because what you have taught and shared have helped enormously.I was in your recent animal communication class for senior dogs. Although I did not join the discussions, I have listened to the recordings. I have also gone through your beginning animal communication home study course. I just want to tell you that your course and the senior dog class have helped me and in turn my dear girl, Jojo, a great deal in our most difficult time. Jojo has been suffering from heart problems and liver as well as kidney problems for a few years but was managed satisfactorily until early September when suddenly things took the downward course quickly. With the help of the vet and energy healing, she still had some good days in the last month of her life. With what I have learnt from you and others in the class, I trust I have done what Jojo has wanted to do, eg taking her to the Peak (we are in Hong Kong) for a walk in her stroller and taking her home on the day before the last day of her life on earth and having my mum holding her as much as possible (she said my mum is her grandma:-)). So I trust we have no regret and Jojo's wishes fulfilled. Thank you. Please keep up with your good work. I really think more people should know and believe in animal communication so please keep up with what you are doing, and please try to spread your knowledge to other parts of the world as much as possible.

• Knee Surgery a Huge Success
  My View: Our dog Page recently needed knee surgery. We adopted her about 18 months ago from an animal shelter. She had been turned over by her owners at 9 months of age and we adopted her 5 months later. We think this time spent in the shelter caused her to have a fear of new and/or different things in her life. We were very concerned about how she would handle the surgery process as well as the healing process afterward. Val had talked to our 3 previous dogs with very good results, so we decided to have Val discuss the upcoming surgery with Page. We knew the vet would be doing the surgery at his office and then we would take Page to the emergency clinic so that she could be monitored overnight. Val explained all this to Page. We were very pleasantly surprised when Page sailed through the entire process with no apparent fear or panic. She seemed to understand exactly what was happening and what she needed to do at each step in the process. When she went in 2 weeks after the surgery to have her staples removed, the vet said she was actually ahead of schedule in the healing process. We are very grateful to Val for her help in what could have been a traumatic situation for Page. Page's view: I recently had to have knee surgery. I am very unsure when new or different things happen in my life. My old family dropped me off at the animal shelter when I was just 9 months old. My new family did not rescue me until I was 14 months old. The stories told by the other dogs at the shelter can be very frightening. I am always afraid that I could lose my new family or that some of the bad things I heard about at the shelter could happen to me. Knowing what I was facing, my new family had Val talk to me and explain what would be happening. When the day of the surgery arrived, I knew what to expect. My one owner left me at the vet in the morning and then both my owners came and picked me up and took me to the emergency room so that they could monitor my pain over night. Because I knew what was happening, I was able to help with my recovery. Now I am doing very well and I am well on my way back to being my old self – a true puppy princess.

• 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!

• Dog Whisperer’s Simple Tip Helps Solve 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!

• 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.

• I Have No More Cancer of the Bone Marrow – Dog’s Behavior Improves
  Yesterday was the one year anniversary of my Forever Dog, Satin's passing. I have successfully moved my clinic this summer. AND my health has received a Miracle! NO more cancer of the bone marrow!

• 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 I compete with and show 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!!!

• Helping the Animal Caretaker In Turn Helps Dog
  I wanted to Thank You for the very beautiful and powerful session you conducted for my wife and her dog, Wendy. You helped both of them clarify the course of the next few months, and in the process helped Nancy bring to the surface and deal with feelings she had been avoiding. I know it was a truly healing experience for both of them. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping my family.

• Changed Behavior Helped This Dog’s Hips and Back Pain
  Dear Val, Three and a half months ago I was devastated with the news that my sweet, loving little dog, Willy, had advanced liver disease. Armed with nothing but a prescription for antibiotics 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 and ebooks. I 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 your website and contacted you for an appointment. At the time I was irritated at your 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 your consultation appointment, Willy 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 you and left you a message telling you this and you called me back within an hour and asked me to consider waiting if I could until after your session which was only 4 days away. When I got home, Willy greeted me with so much enthusiasm, I knew you were right. And I scheduled his ultrasound from an internal specialist for the next week. Our session came and it was so beautiful and profound it is hard to put into words. You communicate with animals from the highest possible place… you touch the sacred place in beings and heal from this place. Willy had allot to say about the purpose and reason for his illness and how i could heal him. Being able to communicate to him so precisely enabled me to see him as the high spiritual being he truly is and in thus doing he started to heal himself in the session. He said that the something that was twisting in his stomach was unwinding and that he was already feeling the pressure release. During this session, you applied healing to every being in my household and gave a rating on what Willy was taking and eating as to what was most beneficial and least beneficial. Just 36 hours later Willy's fluid buildup was totally and completely gone. The doctor giving the ultra-sound 3 days later said there was NO fluid in his abdomen and that whatever was causing the disease was gone. The doctor even said that she would call it a miracle! In retrospect, if someone I know is in trouble, before I do anything I will call you, for my animals, for my grandsons, for myself. I have recommended you to anyone I think might be open to listen. I will gladly pay your fee and gloat at the money I have saved on dangerous surgeries, medications etc. I am so thankful for your gifts and talents. I can verify that you are indeed a Master Healer.

• 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 for all your help!!!

• 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.

• Helping in the Transition of Older Dog – Help Bringing 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.

• 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!!!

• Eating Issues Resolved Through Dog Whispering!
  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 communication world and she has such great compassion while doing it!

• Dog Whisperer Reveals That My Aggressive Dog Was Mirroring 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, Val, 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.

• From Immeasurable Grief to Reconnection and Peace
  Before my session with Val I was still filled with immeasurable grief experienced with the loss of my forever dog, Kalik. Even though it had been six months since his transition into spirit, I had trouble connecting with him and still was feeling empty and without purpose not having him beside me in physical form. I had lost all interest in moving forward in life, as he was my reason for being. My search for answers, peace and closure led me on a journey that brought me in touch with Val and the wonderful world of animal communication. During my session, Val helped me work though the grief, connect with my special dog and talk to him through her. She helped me to address my concerns and worries about him during his illness, and in the after life, and to know that he was happy and still with me in spirit. Val helped me to learn how to further deepen my relationship with him. With Val's help I was able to remove the barriers that kept me from connecting with Kalik and to finally know and feel he is still with me. During the session, I could feel Kalik's joyful energy and spirit surrounding me, and I was able to release the crippling grief that kept me from moving forward…my session with Val was truly life changing. I still miss Kalik's physical presence of course, but I now feel connected with him in spirit and I know he is there beside me guiding me on my path. I feel capable now of continuing on, knowing we have a spiritual journey together ahead of us. Words cannot express how grateful I am for Val's guidance and assistance. I would recommend Val's work to anyone who is experiencing the enormous grief that engulfs us when it is time for our animal companions to continue on their spiritual journey. I only wish I hadn't taken so long to schedule my session with her because the agony I was going through could have been lessened by addressing things sooner. Val can really help!

• Pepe’s Story & Message: The Joy of Love Truly is Greater Than The Pain of Loss
  I cannot even begin to enumerate the ways you have helped, guided and blessed me and my fur-babies over the last 14 years!! THANK YOU is an understatement.Because of my extensive work with animal rescue, 9 years ago I saved a little Chihuahua named Pepe from an abusive situation. Because of the success of our work together in so many other cases like this one and with my other animals too, I immediately sought your council and healing work for him. It hurts me that he had to lose an eye in order to find his way to me but I am SO very grateful that I did not miss the opportunity to experience this wonderful Spirit in the flesh. As he settled in to the safety, love, companionship and good food of our home, his true self began to emerge. I started calling him Pepe Lama — because his precious Spirit reminded me of the Dalai Lama! Peaceful, wise, strong and loving. When he was diagnosed with a heart murmur and slightly enlarged heart 3 1/2 years ago, I realized that he probably would not live to his potential life expectancy for a Chihuahua. And on Dec. 23, 2010, my precious Pepe went back to God. I am without doubt that your BodyTalk healing sessions and communications with him extended his earthly life and helped him to understand what was going on. I am also without doubt that he was not ready to leave us but his vessel just could not continue to sustain his earthly life any longer. I know this because over the years you have guided me and taught me to hone my communication skills. To have him guide me through the burial of his earthly vessel and still be able to communicate with him and feel his presence are great comforts. The one truth that has emerged is that LOVE IS ALL. I am forever changed because of Pepe's presence in my life. In great part because of YOU, I reached the point where the joy of love is greater than the pain of losing his earthly body. Thank You!

• Significant Improvement in Dogs Behavior from Dog Whispering! No More Dead Ducklings
  Our dogs were attacking our baby ducks and no amount of talking, telecommunicating, discipline, or reprimand was solving the problem. I have had a lifetime of dealing with animals, and many called me "Dr. O-Little" (riffing off my last name) or a pet shrink, but in fact I had a lot to learn.Val educated my husband and me, after chatting with our dogs, to the fact that we were not giving them enough to do. I had thought that letting them do what they pleased instead of conforming to my commands or requests for tricks was respecting their autonomy, as their work was to guard the property. I had not understood that in fact they want to perform, to show off their intelligence and willingness to do what we ask. We also were allowing the alpha male to be disobedient on occasions we didn't know how to deal with (e.g., not coming when called, on a large property where chasing him down is not feasible). The guard dog, she also revealed, had severe anxieties about having been abandoned as a puppy (both are rescued animals), and was obsessively "over-mothering" the ducklings to the point of injuring or killing them. After a few sessions, Val was able to get them –and us—to rethink their (and our) behaviors and approach with great success. The improvement in their behavior has been significant… and no more dead ducklings! Many thanks for your efforts, Val!

• From Fighting Biting Dogs to Bragging Rights
  Hi Val, I just have to brag about our dogs Roxie and Gypsy today. As you'll remember, when my husband and I first contacted you for help, it was because our dogs were becoming aggressively dangerous. We'd tried a number of things to resolve the problems, but it was getting worse. We were worried we might have to put one of our dear dogs down if we couldn't find the solution quick. They'd go insane barking and trying to attack when anyone came over. That would escalate into bloody fights and bites, bloodying them and us when we tried to stop them. Well, I am delighted to report that we had the UPS guy drop off a box on our front porch this afternoon. I asked Gypsy and then Roxie to go to their “place” and they both did (Roxie needed a bit of encouragement). I then opened the door, brought in the box, and set it on the floor. In the mean time, they are both just sitting on their “place”. I asked Gypsy to “come” to sniff the box, which she did and walked away. I then asked Roxie to “come” to sniff the box, and she did. Without any barking or anxiety this whole time!! I know it sounds like a small thing, but I was so proud of my little girls!

• Dog Whispering and BodyTalk for Animals Healing Helped Relieve Grand Mal Seizures
  During the past few months I have been amazed – truly astounded – to learn how effective acupressure (AP) can be for my wonderful agility dog, Deli. She has a history of multiple Grand Mal seizures, usually in clusters of 3, every few weeks. (Her breathing was once interrupted for so long I feared she would go into respiratory arrest!) Deli's holistic vet suggested I try applying acupressure, in hopes of helping her through the post-ictal drunken stupor. To my surprise and delight, it did seem that her post-ictal confusion was shortened, in fact, it almost disappeared. But that's only the half of it! I have now documented 14 seizures being offset by AP. Do I believe it possible for acupressure to stop a seizure? My answer has to be a resounding, “Yes!” For me, final proof came thanks to an incredible event one night when a second seizure tried to follow a Grand Mal that had left her body only moments before. She was still unconscious – a second seizure would represent her first “cluster” event in over a year. I was frantic not wanting her to suffer the terrible cluster activity. For 25 minutes I did AP, refusing to give up even when her head dropped and her neck muscles slowly contracted causing her head to begin an ugly twist to one side… I continued the AP, over, and over, and over…until, incredibly, and ever-so-slowly, the muscle spasm softened, then seeped away to nothing. No seizure occurred. How wonderful was that! If I was once a skeptic, I'm not any longer. I think it is absolutely amazing. Even if your animal doesn't have seizures like my Deli, this is such a wonderful, gentle tool we can all learn to use to help relieve stress, illness and pain.

• Val Shows Me What’s Needed and How To Cope With Difficult Situations – Much Happier and Stronger Now
  It has been my pleasure to work with Val for almost 13 years. At first, I wanted help bringing a new puppy into the family. We already had one puppy, and I wanted to make sure that they would get along. Her “read” on their personalities was right on, and helped tremendously.Ten years later, I consulted her to help with grief over the loss of the same dog. He had died suddenly, and both our surviving dog and I needed healing. It was a wonderful session for both of us. Having had such a wonderful experience with Val and her ability to reach out and beyond to find answers, I turned to her again for help in my own life. For the past several years, there have been quite a few major events in my life that have left me feeling overwhelmed, depressed and unable to cope with everyday life on a level that was necessary. I have been amazed at her ability to show me what was needed and what I could do to improve myself and the situations. Her “coping” advice was/is invaluable. I am a much happier person now, and much better armed to handle what comes my way. All the bad stuff has not gone away, but I am now so much stronger. Val's sweet ways and personality help smooth the way, not to mention her sense of humor. Our sessions, while sometimes difficult for me, are so rewarding and helpful. I am brighter, happier, and stronger with Val's spoonful of sugar and her great wisdom and talents. Her Body Talk for animals and people healing work has been so helpful. I just cannot say enough about how wonderful she is!

• Profound, life changing, therapeutic work helped me heal from cancer and recover from the devastating grief over the loss of my forever dog
  I started my journey with you a year ago because of the loss of my spirit dog, Kalik. I was devastated and my grief was incapacitating. I couldn't imagine how I would go on. What intense powerful sessions… each so full of meaning and healing and “aha” moments! I have learned a great deal and always feel so refreshed, peaceful and inspired afterward. Your assistance, healing and support while I work with my own health issues has been profound, life changing and therapeutic, especially with your guidance and wisdom to bring clarity to it all. I found what I learned from you during our sessions, and the healing process I go through is just what I needed. I feel a wonderful increase in my energy level and a profound sense of inner peace, calmness and acceptance, all precipitating a shift that is helping me to continue forward. The work that you do to help us humans and our animals is extraordinary and of such merit. All that I have learned from you in our sessions together has made great sense to me and you have offered me the tools and support I have needed to process through this journey and restore myself. It was so comforting to once again connect with my spirit dog Kalik and hear his thoughts and insights, and again be able to experience his humour! The work we did helped me even more to lift the residual sadness and, instead, feel greater joy and gratitude with having had him in my life. It is very helpful to be able to connect with my other wonderful little dog, Zoe to find out what she is needing to help her along with her health. I feel as though I am transiting into another chapter of my life that has so much more significance and depth. You have supported and guided me to see further into life's mysteries and made it comprehensible. Thank you so much. You truly do have a special gift in helping others.

• Val Heart Dog Whisperer Helps Overcome Difficulties at Painful Time of Transition
  Dear Val, I wanted to thank you so much for your help last week. When I first contacted you, I was terrified of losing my forever friend, Dusty. Others kept telling me to put her down but that didn't feel right, so we were in desperate need of clarity and advice. I was so afraid I would fail my dear friend by making the wrong decision at the wrong time to end her life. I couldn't stop crying.Our session with you was so amazing, and by the end, I felt lighthearted and at peace again. Dusty had perked up and was happily wagging her tail with a joyful, loving look on her face.Since then, Dusty and I have had a wonderful week. We have bonded and connected so strongly and when I look at her now, I just love her SO much and am so grateful that she is still here. I have still cried a few times, but not long and deep, and am mostly at peace and feel grateful and thankful for the love we share. Dusty has been mostly comfortable and even happy at times. Today she actually wanted to go in the car and we took the 3 min. drive down to the marina, and she even hopped out of the car and walked around for a little while – something she hasn't done in a couple of weeks. So, today is an extra good day and I am happy and full of love. Thanks so much for your help – it completely shifted the energy.

• Unknown Health Problems Discovered and Resolved by Dog Whisperer Val Heart!
  When I first contacted you, I was so worried about my furrkids, 1 senior dog Noah and 2 kitties. They all have health problems and I didn't know how to best help them. I was also considering getting a younger dog because of his age, but I didn't want him to think I was trying to replace him! He is my first dog ever and there will never be another Noah, he is my best friend. I've had my own significant health challenges and found myself stuck in fear about a coming move, but I didn't know why. And while I knew about Noah's major illnesses, I didn't know about the nagging jaw pain and frequent headaches he was experiencing, until your communication with him. I was able to take that information to his doctors, who confirmed your findings and further addressed these issues. He's much better now! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and for guiding me with such kindness, acceptance and insight. We've truly enjoyed and benefited from our sessions with you. We're so grateful for the opportunity to work with you and look forward to talking with you again!

• Amazed at How Fast I Can Communicate With My Dog After Only 2 Classes in the Animal Communication Made Easy System
  My senior dog companion Casey was experiencing serious health issues. My family members, friends and our vet were pressuring me to put him down… but I felt that it wasn't Casey's time to go yet. Before I made the decision to end Casey's life, I turned to Val for help. She confirmed that Casey did still want to more time and Val was able to quickly and confidently get the information we needed to help treat Casey. I had used other animal communicators before. Val is different in that not only did she tell me Casey's health condition and how he felt, she also gave me advice on how to help Casey heal. I like Val because of her ability to communicate with Casey but more so because she is a problem solver. She doesn't just give me a report of what is wrong. Instead, she goes the distance to help the two of us heal and prepare for our journey ahead. I can sense Val's love and compassion with animals during her session and I am really impressed by that. In fact, I am so impressed that I signed up for the Animal Communication Made Easy System to learn to communicate with Casey myself.I have taken other animal communication courses before but didn't get very far, so I gave up. However, the consultation session with Val re-ignited the passion that I have for animal communication. My questions, concerns, doubts have been addressed, and I realize that I simply need to continue practicing and trust the process. I know that being able to communicate with animals will also help me with my Reiki work with animals. Feeling hopeful, and encouraged, I immediately practiced what Val taught me and within two lessons we were on the road to recovery and to a new partnership. I am amazed at how fast I can connect with Casey after only two classes! For instance, I was able to find out what caused the stress he was experiencing and where he had pain. It was an awesome experience. I have never felt more confident about my ability to communicate with all animals. I highly recommend Val to anyone who is thinking of using an animal communicator because she can truly bridge the gap between people and their animal companions. She not only tells you what the problem is, she also offers advice on how to overcome that so that you and you animal companion can start your healing journey together. With her insights, compassion and knowledge, Val introduces a whole new and better way to look at your life and the animals that share your life's experience. If you are interested in learning how to communicate with animals, I highly recommended Val's Animal Communication Made Easy System. I have been meditating for many years and I find the meditations Val included in this program to be very powerful. It will help you get to the quiet space where communion and communication takes place. The course is wonderful, well-researched and life changing.

• Val’s Medical Intuitive and Animal Whisperer Skills Are Invaluable for Preventative Care and Crisis Work
  I have used Animal Communicators reguarly over the years. With Val you are getting more than an Animal Communicator. You are also getting an Animal/Medical Intuitive. As I have learned, when it comes to one's body, animals are very much like humans. Some are very in touch with their bodies and can say what's wrong while others can't. As my (other) animal communicator says “my information is only as good as your pets convey.” However, with Val, she can also deeper by tuning into the organ and systems in question and intuit what's wrong. It is invaluable to have that input in addition to your Vet for both preventive measures as well as during a medical crisis. Val has been an amazing friend to me and my four legged Hans.

• Dog Overcomes Pain Problems Through the Help of Val Heart, Dog Whisperer!
  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 you wouldn't be meeting us in person where I could really SEE you actually 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 you to get some answers. And that is exactly what we got! You were 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. You have 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 and back. With a little “blind faith” and being open to something that doesn't necessarily make logical sense, we found some great answers from my pets that will go a long way in understanding them. And enjoyed a few comical surprises along the way as well!

• More Enlightening and Productive than Many Trips to the Vet
  Spending time talking to Val about my dog, Stella, turned out to be very enlightening and more productive than the many trips to the vet have ever been. I contacted Val because I was concerned about Stella's chronic urinary tract infections and allergies and I needed to know if there was anything Stella wanted me to know about her health or general well being. Val provided me with so much insight on my dog, that I could not possibly list it all here. For instance, she pin pointed specific problems with her food, and since switching her diet, we have noticed a significant decrease in the amount of yeast on her skin and a lot less scratching. She's also much happier and more vibrant, and her fur even looks cleaner. Val also sensed some back pain in Stella and advised she have a chiropractic alignment. With that, we no longer need the pain medication that the vet had prescribed for what they assumed was “spinal arthritis.” In addition to all the health advice that was SO helpful, it was fun to hear what Val had to say about Stella's emotional well being. She described Stella's personality perfectly and when I asked if my kids bother her to much, it was fun to hear what Stella had to say: "it's ok. I know they love me." I am certain that I will work with Val again in the future, and I would recommend her to anyone who has questions about their animals!

• From Fear Aggression, Hyper vigilance and Devastation to Playful, Happy and Loving!
  To be honest, I'd always been hesitant to work with animal communicators, but when I met Val in person at a business networking event I was impressed by her caring, confidence and professionalism. So when my maturing Newfoundland puppy, River, began to display serious fear aggression–a problem I'd never encountered before in a lifetime of living with dogs–I decided to ask Val for help. I'd already tried training, socialization and desensitization. I'd been to an animal behaviorist and consulted all my savviest contacts in the dog world–trainers, veterinarians, breeders, friends. And still my dog was barking, growling and lunging at other dogs, and occasionally even people! It's important to note also that River weighs well over a hundred pounds, most of it muscle. It was getting more and more difficult to control him. Would I even be able to keep him? Should he be put down? I was devastated and out of options. Because evidence indicated River's issue was genetic, Val was honest with me that she couldn't promise success, but she felt we definitely had a good chance of changing my troubled puppy's behavior. Val first reminded me of pragmatic training principles I'd failed to enforce. Next, she helped River understand that his job is not to be constantly hypervigilant as he thought, but simply to make people happy. I'm delighted to say that after only three sessions with Val, River is truly a different dog! Evidently, he enjoys his new assignment! He no longer barks wildly at new people; instead, he runs up to greet them smiling, his tail wagging. Just like a normal dog! And he meets most new dogs with playful rather than aggressive interest. We are still working through a few hiccups, which Val says is normal, but everyone who's known River can see the huge difference in his demeanor and sweeter personality. Best of all, Val helped me change my mindset toward this sweet boy and not hold his difficult past against him. Instead, as my trust in him rises, I'm learning to expect his best rather than fear the worst, which has freed us both to love and enjoy a special bond. I am truly grateful to Val for her compassion, insight, expertise and remarkable gift. And I'm sure River is, too!

• Problem Gelding Goes On To Win Regional Championships
  Val Heart gave me such great advice and clarity for my life, helped me improve my health, and also made such a difference with my horse, Aries, that we swept into the dressage shows and won a whole pile of blue ribbons — in only 6 months! I can't believe I was on the verge of selling Aries and giving up on him only a short while ago… now, we are excited to see each other and are winning almost every show we enter. We are both healthier, too, and that mystery lameness Aries had? Now I know where it's coming from, what to do about it and what my contribution to the problem actually is. Awesome! Thanks, Val! I don't want to know where we would be without you.

• Horse Makes a Full Recovery from EPM — Vet Says It’s A Miracle!
  I am very pleased to report that my horse, Zoie, who had a serious case of EPM has made a full recovery! Her vet is writing her up as a Miracle! She just had a follow up with her chiropractor and he was completely pleased at her progress. He felt she had turned a significant corner, and said he thought he was observing a different horse! I am now riding her again.Thank you for all the great work you have done with her (and Me!). It has made a huge difference for us. My hormones seem to have stabilized, and my weight has gone back to balance since our last session too. Yea!!

• Horse Behavior Significantly Improved
  This is probably the one of the biggest success stories in regards to me that we've had so far. It has been, what? 10 days since we spoke with my horse, Valentine, about not urinating on her hay! I'd tried everything I could think of, but nothing was working. Since our session, she has not peed on it OR spread it around her stall willy nilly, not even once! It is a Miracle! This is amazing! And will save me untold thousands in ruined hay!

• Abused Horse Finds His Place
  Val has helped me multiple times with my horses Tequila and Duster. Having problems with Tequila, I gave her a call. Tequila had been from home to home and abused at times. He was very head strong and hard to handle. During our session, we learned he no long wanted to run barrels. I agreed that day to stop, and from that time on his personality and demeanor changed. We had a very special bond of trust with each other. Tequila was a great friend. He died at the age of 18. Once again, I called Val to help in this matter. Tequila knowing that I did everything possible to save him and that he was alright, helped me with the grieving process. He will be missed and always loved.

• Val Helped Extend MY Life and Tailor’s
  When I first met Val, I had been diagnosed with terminal multiple sclerosis and hadn't much longer to live. I was looking for someone to help me find a home for my beloved Russian Arabian gelding, Ptailor Made, who I had raised and trained. Through Val's assistance, I not only didn't have to give him up, but I began recovering my health too. Also, I got to watch a remarkable friendship blossom between her and Tailor as he taught her many things. I'm grateful for the extra few years we had together, and for the loving care and support Val so freely provided.In December 2001, Tailor's lifelong recurring colic episodes got the best of him, and he left us to go teach somewhere else for awhile. We love you Tailor. God speed — until we meet again.

• Pinpointing the Real Cause of Hunter Jumper and Dressage Horse’s Poor Performance
  I first met Val a number of years ago when my Arabian gelding, Tiger, was having some problems. He wasn't performing well at times, and was often experiencing mysterious lameness.I have been consistently impressed with Val's ability to pinpoint the issues and am very pleased with the results I experienced. I felt I had a partner to help me better understand my horses, and also made a good friend. I am glad for all that she's taught me over the years, and glad she's part of my team.

• Mystery Unhappiness and Chronic Lameness Resolved & Problem Show Hunter/Jumper Turned Around
  Your work with Slim has been fantastic. After a cross-country move I could tell she just wasn't happy. I gave you a try because nothing else was helping. You were amazing and now she is so much happier, back to her normal self. And you helped address her ongoing lameness issues. I look forward to our talks like I would a dinner party or special holiday!After your great work with Slim – you helped me find a show horse for hunters. Since I am learning jumping – I needed a very good-minded horse. We “visited” with several horses before finding Cory. She was a surprise and has been a treasured gift.She wasn't a sweet horse or suitable for beginners but your conversations with her made it a lot easier to give her a try. She keeps surprising everyone with her willingness to put up with my amateur mistakes and her depth of character – she tries her best and always gives me 100 %.People who see her now assume she was misunderstood, or that she likes us better, but in my heart I know this turnaround is due to you. She is such a snuggler now and loves attention. And we're competing together, and doing really well!

• Miracle! My Sick Horse Survives to Compete Again – This Was A Magical Experience
  I can't believe that only a year ago, my 20 year old Grand Prix Dressage horse, Libero, was terribly ill. Even though the vets couldn't figure out what the problem was, he was so sick they wanted me to put him down. It was touch and go there for a while, and when I contacted you, I was a mess. You helped us communicate with each other, and Libero told you how he was feeling, where the pain was coming from, and that he wasn't ready to leave yet! That gave me the hope I needed to keep going and not give up. The vets thought his career was over but Libero didn't agree with them. Thank God I listened to you. Now, against ALL odds, Libero and I are back in training, working towards completing our titles. We are actually showing again! I can't thank you enough, Val.” From Sarah, Feb 2008: “Hi Val! I have some new info. Libero was in a special ultrasound clinic this weekend as a test subject. Lets just say he was the talk of the clinic and not because the joint looked so perfect. They do not know why or how he is sound! His joint has so many problems. I am about to leave for a horse show with my trainer telling me I am going to kick some ass! The vets only comment was that Libero loves what he does so much he is willing to work through the pain! I can give you a more scientific account of this but I have to look in my notes for the correct words. I really feel like I have been through a magical experience with you and my horse! Love, Sarah

• Grand Prix Dream Horse Mystery Lameness Turned Around In ONE Session
  I finally got my dream horse – an 11 year old Grand Prix dressage Andalusian stallion – and from day 1 had problems! He arrived from across the country stressed and upset at his new environment and at leaving his prior trainers'. Then, he foundered as a result of gelding surgery a couple of weeks later and nothing we tried helped him heal. Desperate to help my horse I turned to Val for the first time. I could not believe what happened in just one session! She was able to quickly and confidently get the information we needed to help treat him properly. Plus, we tapped into what he needed from me as his new partner. Feeling hope for the first time I immediately practiced what Val taught me and within ONE session with him that same day we were on the road to recovery and to a new partnership. Since then, Val's sessions have helped me learn how to ride passage, piaffe and to continue to create an amazing partnership with this extraordinary horse. Val's work has changed my life with this horse — and with ALL of my horses — forever! I continue to get regular sessions with her, as I'm eager to understand what my horses are trying to tell me. Thank you Val for saving my horse and for saving my relationship with him… my horses thank you, too!

• Dangerous Haflinger Horse Now a Joy To Be Around
  I called Val when I was feeling I should give up on my scared, aggressive, rescued Haflinger horse, Gabe. After two years, he still nipped and bullied people and his four herd members. Even though he was great to ride, he was a huge management problem, and soon I couldn't even get him to stand still to be mounted. The whole "family" was fed up with him. I'd tried different trainers and would make great progress back home, then lose ground. After only one phone session with Val, I could not believe his change! The very next morning! No crowding me, soft eyes. I could lunge him without a halter or rope, and he would stand to let me get on bareback! All of the horses stared at me as if to say, what is going on? At Val's suggestion, we are addressing the whole herd differently, they are all four responding, and talking to us about it! Peace seems to reign. I continue to work with Gabe on his ground manners. I have great hopes for us, and look forward to every day. My thinking has changed in a fundamental way about my relationships with my horses and the world. And about the possibilities for real communication with animals, something I've worked on all my life. And I almost didn't do this for myself! If you are thinking of calling Val, I would not hesitate to say Do It!

• Dangerous Stallion Now Cooperating With New Owner
  Before my session with Val, I was struggling, afraid and very concerned about my new American Saddlebred stallion "The Knight's Image". Image bit, kicked and tried to hurt people working around him. He was very dangerous and we couldn't even clean his stall safely. I felt like Image would never calm down and allow me to handle him. Val helped me find out why he was acting this way and what I could do to help him. Among other things, I found out that he did not want to hurt me and that he wanted out of his stall where he'd been confined for his bad behavior. We explained why he was being kept there and was not allowed to be turned out like the others. Val talked to Image and told him that if he wanted to go outside to play, he would have to allow me to put on his new halter by lowering his head and calming down, acting respectful. Previously, he refused to lower his head for me or anyone including his trainer, so I was really skeptical that he would cooperate. I was amazed! I stood at his stall and had his halter in my hand just like Val had coached us, and he lowered his head for me! He then calmly let me walk him to the indoor arena and when I asked him to park out, he did. Then I let him run and boy, did he! He had a great time, and when it was time to come back in, he also cooperated beautifully. I am so happy to have worked with Val with this horse. I feel that now I understand him better and we can work together. I would highly recommend working with Val if anyone should have a problem with their horses, dogs or cats. Val is very kind and caring and accurate! She really does talk to the animals! I also think that when you do a session with Val that it demonstrates to your animals that you are trying to help them. It shows trust and caring on our parts to connect and communicate so we can help our animals be happy and healthy!

• Resolving Dog’s Long Held Pain and Behavior Issues
  My husband and I first started using Val's services to help us with our dogs, Heidi and Speedy. Heidi was aggressive and unpredictable, and Speedy was all over the place! We used to dread taking them on walks, and they barked at strangers and family alike. Heidi had bitten several people and I was a bit afraid of her. Their aggression seemed to be escalating and we didn't know what to do. We never knew what would set them off, and lived in fear that they'd bite someone or get in a fight with another dog. She taught us so much in a short amount of time! They became really well behaved and reliable. We actually looked forward to going for a walk with them! That was amazing and something we never thought would happen! And as we learned to communicate with our dogs ourselves, things got easier and easier. Then I got pregnant with our first child. Val's healing work and gentle therapies helped me have an easy pregnancy and delivery. It was fascinating when the dogs told us things about the baby as it was growing inside me. Since Heidi had never been comfortable around children, we were terribly afraid of what she might do when we brought our baby home. Val worked with us, helping us all build our confidence as we learned how to give Heidi good clear signals and support, and Speedy more direction about what we wanted her to do. It turned out that when we brought Luke home, it was a non-event! We'd never have believed it possible before. I'm sad to say that Heidi's difficult personality and chronic pain issues got the best of her, and we decided to do the compassionate and safe thing for all of us. With heavy hearts, we wound up putting her down last spring. We know we did the right thing by her and our growing family. And after talking with Heidi through Val, we know that Heidi is fine now too, and is happily watching out for us in spirit. I also decided to work with Val on some personal issues and I'm thrilled to report what's happened. We've worked through some marital issues and now my husband and I are closer than ever before! I've also suffered with a long time addiction to cake and sweets that began in college. And in our last session, Val helped me bust the addiction! Before, I couldn't stop eating until it was all gone and I'd find myself taking frequent trips to the bakery for more. I even confess I had taken to hiding sweets and would “plot” how I could get seconds or thirds at a party and no one notice. I knew it was time to get help. Now, things are going really well with limiting sweets. I was really proud of my self during the holidays as Steven and I split a piece of pie and it did not even taste that good! Thank you for all of your help and we hope you have a Happy Holidays!

When my friend recommended I try Val and The BodyTalk System, I said, Ok,why not!? I'd tried everything else.. Well! When I got off her table less than an hour later, there was NO PAIN in my knee!!!

• Uncovering Hidden Emotions – Getting Back to Health
  The work that Val Heart and I have done together has been transformational. She has helped me uncover hidden emotions about events that I have worked on for decades. It was so freeing to arrive at "fresh air" after going in circles for so long. Val is so empathetic that I immediately felt comfortable working with difficult events and emotions. It's as if she has the tiniest of hands that can reach right in and ever so gently touch the unseen, unfelt hurting parts and bring them up to consciousness for recognition and release.

  Only a few months ago, I asked Val to work with my 8 year old grandson. He was acting out badly, was disruptive in school, uncooperative, angry, lashing out at everyone. He couldn't seem to focus, and was easily sidetracked. In only a few sessions, he's become the most cooperative, courteous, helpful little boy I've ever seen! His health has also improved a lot. I am so happy to see the changes. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!

You have guided me to both a wonderful and exciting place of beginning and a sense of returning home at last. I first contacted you out of desperation.

• You Taught Me How to Connect to ALL Animals
  Dearest Val, I personally value the way animals feel about me more than people. People are so fake and so fickle, and often even vicious, regardless of what they know of you or how you've been with them. Animals see who we really are. Instantaneously. I believe it was Greta Garbo that once said, "I'm glad not everyone likes me. I would think less of myself if they did." That's how I feel about people. I value how animals feel about me much more than how people do. Before I knew you, I had an ability to connect with cats, all cats, even those other people said wouldn't come up to me or would run away. Cats know they can trust me. You've taught me how to extend the love I feel for cats and how to connect with them to other animals, even ones I was previously afraid of. You've helped me be able to walk around my neighborhood and interact with big scary dogs behind fences or on chains that bark crazily at other people, but who sit quietly and accept the love I have to offer them when I walk past their yard. I've been able to quietly and easily rescue the birds and other creatures my cats have brought in the house over the years. My animal life has been so magnified by you. I believe you might be one of the people who have had the greatest effect on my life. You're a powerhouse! I love you.

• Val Showed Me What’s Needed and How To Cope With Difficult Situations – Much Happier and Stronger Now!
  It has been my pleasure to work with Val for almost 13 years. At first, I wanted help bringing a new puppy into the family. We already had one puppy, and I wanted to make sure that they would get along. Her “read” on their personalities was right on, and helped tremendously. Ten years later, I consulted her to help with grief over the loss of the same dog. He had died suddenly, and both our surviving dog and I needed healing. It was a wonderful session for both of us. Having had such a wonderful experience with Val and her ability to reach out and beyond to find answers, I turned to her again for help in my own life. For the past several years, there have been quite a few major events in my life that have left me feeling overwhelmed, depressed and unable to cope with everyday life on a level that was necessary. I have been amazed at her ability to show me what was needed and what I could do to improve myself and the situations. Her “coping” advice was/is invaluable. I am a much happier person now, and much better armed to handle what comes my way. All the bad stuff has not gone away, but I am now so much stronger. Val's sweet ways and personality help smooth the way, not to mention her sense of humor. Our sessions, while sometimes difficult for me, are so rewarding and helpful. I am brighter, happier, and stronger with Val's spoonful of sugar and her great wisdom and talents. Her Body Talk healing work has been so helpful. I just cannot say enough about how wonderful she is!

• Profound, life changing, therapeutic work helps me heal from cancer and recover from the devastating grief over the loss of my forever dog.
  I started my journey with you a year ago because of the loss of my spirit dog, Kalik. I was devastated and my grief was incapacitating. I couldn't imagine how I would go on. What intense powerful sessions… each so full of meaning and healing and “aha” moments! I have learned a great deal and always feel so refreshed, peaceful and inspired afterward. Your assistance, healing and support while I work with my own health issues has been profound, life changing and therapeutic, especially with your guidance and wisdom to bring clarity to it all. I found what I learned from you during our sessions, and the healing process I go through is just what I needed. I feel a wonderful increase in my energy level and a profound sense of inner peace, calmness and acceptance, all precipitating a shift that is helping me to continue forward. The work that you do to help us humans and our animals is extraordinary and of such merit. All that I have learned from you in our sessions together has made great sense to me and you have offered me the tools and support I have needed to process through this journey and restore myself. It was so comforting to once again connect with my spirit dog Kalik and hear his thoughts and insights, and again be able to experience his humour! The work we did helped me even more to lift the residual sadness and, instead, feel greater joy and gratitude with having had him in my life. It is very helpful to be able to connect with my other wonderful little dog, Zoe to find out what she is needing to help her along with her health. I feel as though I am transiting into another chapter of my life that has so much more significance and depth. You have supported and guided me to see further into life's mysteries and made it comprehensible. Thank you so much. You truly do have a special gift in helping others!

• Val’s Medical Intuitive and Animal Communication Skills Are Invaluable for Preventative Care and Crisis Work
  I have used Animal Communicators regularly over the years. With Val you are getting more than an Animal Communicator. You are also getting an Animal/Medical Intuitive. As I have learned, when it comes to one's body, animals are very much like humans. Some are very in touch with their bodies and can say what's wrong while others can't. As my (other) animal communicator says “my information is only as good as your pets convey.” However, with Val, she can also deeper by tuning into the organ and systems in question and intuit what's wrong. It is invaluable to have that input in addition to your Vet for both preventive measures as well as during a medical crisis. Val has been an amazing friend to me and my four legged Hans.

• Something Buried Within Me Was Causing My Heart To Fail… Val’s Quantum Leap and BodyTalk Sessions Helped Me Heal My Heart & My Life
  Val's Quantum Leap sessions are amazing. In addition to animal communication and BodyTalk healing sessions, I decided to go for Val's Quantum Leap sessions. I realized there was something buried within me that was causing my heart to fail (I've had 10 heart surgeries in the last 15 years), was making my relationships with my husband and son problematic, and was keeping me stuck in a job I'd come to hate. I wanted her help releasing old fears and energy that I knew was trapped inside but could not locate or clear with any of the other work I'd done. She helped me overcome the death of my mother, trauma from a major motor vehicle accident, subsequent surgeries and gave me the courage to leave a job where I was unhappy and unsatisfied. She taught me the beauty of laughter and allowed me to believe in myself once again. And, her long distance body talk sessions can't be beat! While Val worked to help me clear my issues she opened new doors for my family and helped heal my animals who were also feeling my stress. Her work is amazing and I am so thankful that she came into my life.

• Every Session is Life Changing for Me And My Dog Elsa
  On asking Val Heart to help with my companion dog, Elsa. Elsa is an extraordinarily perceptive, kind, co-operative and loving dog with a strong personality and a great sense of humor. She is great company and will do anything to try to help in our lives together. She is so gentle, I can take food out of her mouth without any protest. This, however, was not our neighbors’ perception of her. They could only see and hear a loud, piercing and persistent bark and an intimidating, crazed dog. She barked at anyone walking by the house, delivery vans, cars, cats, birds, and above all the postman. If any visitors came to the house she would bark over them every time the spoke or moved around. If we needed a workman round, she would have to go to my mum’s. She never attacked or bit, but was always very vocal. People were annoyed and felt intimidated. I was upset because people couldn’t see her loving nature. The neighbors complained and relationships became fraught. In her training, diet, and exercise we had always been very conscientious. Nothing was more important to me than the health and happiness of this girl. I increased my efforts in training. People suggested all sorts: sound devices that would hurt her ears, electric collars etc. but I was not prepared to use any method that would hurt her or bully her. I knew that if Elsa understood a situation, she would do everything she could to contribute positively because that was her nature. So I signed up to Val’s beginning animal communication course. However, when she started to become aggressive towards other dogs in the neighborhood, I realized that swift and strong intervention was needed to avoid anyone getting hurt or worse. I signed up to Val’s 3-month behavior intervention plan. This wasn’t like any doggy training I had done before! Val helped clear up misunderstandings around my ‘no bark command ‘ straight away and showed me how to successfully redirect her when barking. Elsa had thought we were playing a completely different game! Val picked up on Elsa’s nervous energy and taught me some calming breathing techniques to do together. She immediately became generally calmer. Sometimes I thought I was imagining it, but my mother, who knows her well, confirmed my impressions. Elsa was 2 kilos overweight and reducing her food intake, even more, seemed impossible, as did getting in more exercise daily. Val felt into Elsa’s body and following her advice, giving her a different kind of meat, she dropped the 2 kilos naturally. Val communicated my concerns to Elsa about her behavior towards other dogs. The following day we came across her arch doggy enemy whose guardian suggested we let them sort out their differences in a controlled way. Synchronicity in action. We had never been able to speak before – the aggression and fighting had been so loud and immediate. This time, they snapped at each other a little, then sniffed bottoms, and carried on their way. I no longer had to worry about avoiding particular routes or times of day. She’s still happiest off the lead with other dogs, still a little wary of two in particular, but we haven’t had a horrible aggressive incident since. Val taught me that animals mirror the deepest, most intimate parts of us – Elsa had been sensing my own anxiety around life and people and doing her darndest to protect me at all times! I had assumed this anxiety was just an immovable part of me. Val challenged this and showed me that if I wanted Elsa to become calm, sociable and happy, I had to become calm, sociable and happy. Val has helped me to start a journey of finding and healing my deepest fears– not quite effortlessly, but almost! Elsa continues to mirror my changes. I’m still working on this and Elsa mirrors my progress. Val has been the kindest, wisest and clearest help to both of us. I was concerned about the financial investment initially – we don’t usually have money left over at the end of the month. I’ve been able to find some extra work to fund this and it has been worth every penny. Elsa is happier, healthier, relationships with neighbors are improving, and a whole new way of perceiving my life and the world is opening up. I am so relieved that aggressive incidents have not recurred, and we don’t have to move house to protect Elsa. I’m also so happy to be able to work with Elsa rather than subdue or ‘tame’ her enthusiasm for life. I’m so glad that I followed my intuition telling me that harsh methods were just not the answer. Every conversation with Val is like nothing I could predict or expect! I feel I am in safe hands, learning so much about the nature of the universe and all the precious beings who are part of it.
• Turning Whoa Into GO Fantasy’s Story
  Turning Fantasy’s WHOA into a GO When I contacted Val, not quite two months ago, I had done all I knew to uncover the reasons behind my previously cooperative and sweet mare’s sour and balky behavior.  You know the drill: veterinary workups, chiropractor/acupuncture consult, check teeth, saddle fit, evaluate turnout/buddies, review feed/supplements, and consult with trainer and riding instructor. This process took a lot of time and money, yet Fantasy’s underlying balkiness and irritability were still there. In addition to her puzzling balkiness, Fantasy just didn’t look happy.  It was as if she was just “going through the motions”. I felt like she wanted to tell me something, but that she had given up and was shutting down emotionally. We were in a vicious cycle of frustration with each other.  This was NOT the kind of relationship I wanted with my horse.  I felt like despite my best efforts, I was letting this horse, MY horse, down. After one session with Val, I knew we were onto something.   I felt cautiously optimistic and was SO determined to help Fantasy that I decided to go for the Silver Plan of three more sessions. WOW. The insights and tools I got from Val, are transforming my relationship with my horse.  Since the sessions are recorded, I can review and practice as often as I need to (daily). Within just a couple of weeks (seriously) my horse seemed happier, and I can now see that Fantasy’s determination to let me know “this is NOT working for me” has been a gift. Yesterday, we had the first willing upward transitions we’ve had in months!!! EVERY time there would have been a “NO” before, she gave me a relaxed “YES”.  It has taken a leap of faith to abandon what was NOT working and to utilize the tools Val has given me, but the results have been the irrefutable proof that Fantasy and I are now on the right track.

• Wholly Crap! Val and BodyTalk for Animals Healed My Beagles Cough On the Spot
  Ok folks just finished my communication and healing session with Val in regards to my beagle Snoopy who has had a chronic ongoing cough that has not been solved with meds or the vet hasn’t offered any solutions other than saying it’s just an old man cough… seriously?!  I wish I could tell you what Val did but I have no idea other than something she calls BodyTalk for animals, which I’d not heard of.  She said a bunch of big medical related words that I don’t get and she scanned his body medically saying more big words I don’t know, and the whole time my dog has STOPPED COUGHING!!  Sitting here typing this and he is happily and peacefully sitting next to me NOT COUGHING.  I don’t know what to say.  Wholly crap… how about that. Whoo hoo!  Thank you, Val!!  -- Gina Triay, LA

• A Wise Investment: from Tsunami to Wisdom
  I had a delightful consultation with Val Heart. After completing a long journey through the Mayo Clinic Health System, I felt like I had been hit by a tsunami. My life look like a debris field. As a former executive director, I could not fathom what had happened. Slowly, I began to realize this "dark night of my soul" was a magnificent spiritual awakening. As my Authentic Self came forth, a clear vision was bestowed upon me. I surrendered to the infinite possibilities of this vision's unfolding. Val completely understood my journey that led to our conversation. As a pioneer in the field of animal communication, her journey has not been a linear path either, Her experience have served to teach her incredibly valuable lessons. During our conversation, this wisdom was evident and solidified her capacity to serve as a business mentor and coach - a very wise investment!  Thanks, Val!  Eden Kolijord

• Go Pro Business Coaching Program is so Valuable in Growing My Business as a Professional Animal Communicator
  Val’s Go Pro Animal Communicator Business Coaching Program has been so valuable in helping me to focus on what is important in the world of business marketing.  Her background as a professional animal communicator is inspirational.  I’ve been working professionally for 7 years and my business wasn’t growing very much.  But now, I have seen my email contact list increase greatly and dramatically with a simple campaign that I developed with Val’s assistance.  Val is also extremely encouraging and supportive.  I felt so alone and isolated before I joined the Program and often didn’t know what to do or how to do it, I felt so discouraged.  The classes, calls and Facebook group are great for connecting with other professional communicators, this is a wonderful community.  Seeing what the other members are creating is motivating and also I find myself so excited to see my fellow coaching classmates succeed.  I would highly recommend Val’s program if you are striving to increase (or start) your animal communication business.  -- Anne Angelo, professional animal communicator

• Success! Val is Brilliant, Lovely, Warm and Incredibly Helpful
  Why did I decide to work with Val? I have one word for you -- SUCCESS! No sooner had I agreed to my commitment with Val Heart, Animal Communicator Coach & Business Mentor extraordinaire (lovingly laughing), I immediately received more client phone calls. The world often sees us as operating in a gray area of society and business although we may see ourselves walking in the LIGHT. We do it to ourselves by walking with one foot in the spiritual world and one foot in the physical world and not shining as brightly in the physical world as we truly are in our spiritual world. We might be really comfortable in the spiritual world and not so much in the physical one… THIS is where Val Heart comes in and shows her brilliance at helping, guiding and encouraging us to be solid and shining equally in both worlds. She is a lovely warm soul armed with pointy questions that encourage and allow you to develop into everything you choose to be. My advice to you: take your personal limitations off and reach for the moon with your business. If that is what you want, Val Heart will be right there with you to guide the way. ~ Stephanie L.

• I’m Glad I Had the Good Sense to Work With Val and Her Remarkable Program
  In my business, I help so many people and pets with healing, it is difficult for me to know who to trust and let down the walls when I need help. You came into my life, dear Val to help on many levels and I’m so glad I have the good sense to work with you both for myself personally and for my business. The intense healing you helped me with was something I’ve been struggling to clear for years! It was truly so beautiful and I feel so happy that we are connected on the levels that we are in this remarkable Program. There is an intense depth and recognition of the true essence of our souls and the work that we do in this life, and so full of love, caring, guidance and sharing. ~ Philippa Kingsley, professional animal communicator

• Inspiring, Supportive, Healing Program Helps Me Achieve My Dreams of Helping Others
  One of the reasons I quit my previous job (I was working as consultant of the World Wide Fund, the international NGO leading in wildlife conservation and endangered species) was to do this important work. What you have built in this Business Program is not only incredibly useful, it is inspiring and supporting our spiritual journey. I'm really grateful to my Spiritual Guides who made me meet you and I'm so happy I had the good sense to enroll. You guide me, I fully trust you and am grateful you are always so close, for your love, understanding and your healing energies! What interests me more than anything else is to help animals and people to understand each other so that harmony, love, respect and peace can flourish between them. And to do that I must be able to reach those who need me, and make a successful living to support myself. With this program and loving community of colleagues, I know I can do that. ~ Nicoletta Toniutti

• Strange Horse Behavior Solved!
  I called Val to work with my horse who was acting strange and I was worried about him. When she asked him how he felt, he told her that he had a headache.  She asked him to tell me more about that and he showed me an image of himself prancing and dancing around his 10 acre pasture with an orange construction cone clenched between his teeth.  Which he totally does, all the time!  Amazing. He showed her that he enjoyed throwing the cones at his pasture mates (a mule, a paint horse, and 2 longhorns – none of whom found his antics funny in the least). He’d dunk them in his water trough, and hurl them into the neighbors field… All totally true.  And one day, he said, it finally all come undone. Apparently he’d gotten a little too vigorous tossing his head with it, because the rubber started tearing. And on that last big upswing it tore in half and the heavy end beaned him right in the middle of his forehead. He told us it hit him so hard that he saw stars (like a cartoon!) and stood there dazed, with the remaining bit of orange rubber dangling from his mouth. And his head had hurt ever since. Mystery solved.  I never would have known, but that makes complete sense.  He asked for a head massage, and now is back to normal. - Bonnie Shriver, Boerne, TX
• Aggressive, Dangerous Horse Now Peaceful, Easy and Wonderful
  I called Val when I was feeling I should give up on my scared, aggressive, rescued Haflinger horse, Gabe. After two years, he still nipped and bullied people and his four herd members. Even though he was great to ride, he was a huge management problem, and soon I couldn’t even get him to stand still to be mounted. The whole ‘family’ was fed up with him. I’d tried different trainers and would make great progress back home, then lose ground. After only one phone session with Val, I could not believe his change! The very next morning! No crowding me, soft eyes. I could lunge him without a halter or rope, and he would stand to let me get on bareback! All of the horses stared at me as if to say, what is going on? At Val’s suggestion, we are addressing the whole herd differently, they are all four responding, and talking to us about it! Peace seems to reign. I continue to work with Gabe on his ground manners. I have great hopes for us, and look forward to every day. My thinking has changed in a fundamental way about my relationships with my horses and the world. And about the possibilities for real communication with animals, something I’ve worked on all my life. And I almost didn’t do this for myself! If you are thinking of calling Val, I would not hesitate to say Do It! ~ Lou Robinson, Cornell University

• Aggressive Dangerous Stallion Responded Beautifully and is Now Cooperating With Me
  Before my session with Val, I was struggling, afraid and very concerned about my new American Saddlebred stallion “The Knight’s Image”. Image bit, kicked and tried to hurt people working around him. He was very dangerous and we couldn’t even clean his stall safely. I felt like Image would never calm down and allow me to handle him. Val helped me find out why he was acting this way and what I could do to help him. Among other things, I found out that he did not want to hurt me and that he wanted out of his stall where he’d been confined for his bad behavior. We explained why he was being kept there and was not allowed to be turned out like the others. Val talked to Image and told him that if he wanted to go outside to play, he would have to allow me to put on his new halter by lowering his head and calming down, acting respectful. Previously, he refused to lower his head for me or anyone including his trainer, so I was really skeptical that he would cooperate. I was amazed! I stood at his stall and had his halter in my hand just like Val had coached us, and he lowered his head for me! He then calmly let me walk him to the indoor arena and when I asked him to park out, he did. Then I let him run and boy, did he! He had a great time, and when it was time to come back in, he also cooperated beautifully. I am so happy to have worked with Val with this horse. I feel that now I understand him better and we can work together. I would highly recommend working with Val if anyone should have a problem with their horses, dogs or cats. Val is very kind and caring and accurate! She really does talk to the animals! I also think that when you do a session with Val that it demonstrates to your animals that you are trying to help them. It shows trust and caring on our parts to connect and communicate so we can help our animals be happy and healthy! ~ Yvette Broussal, Nevada, Mine Geologist & Animal Lover
• Restoring My Cat Abie from Death’s Door to Health and Quick Relief
  I set up a session with Val when my cat Abraham (Abie) deteriorated suddenly from what I assumed was the arthritis he had been diagnosed with a year earlier. Almost overnight he was barely able to move and when he did he growled from pain. He would eat only when I brought his dishes of food and water to his mouth. (Fortunately, he somehow made it to his litter box.) In addition, he quickly developed the symptoms of a cold. I could tell he was in abject misery and I was concerned that he would be permanently incapacitated. Val said she felt Abie was having a reaction to the routine vaccinations that he had received several months earlier and that his whole body was inflamed. Because of the arthritis, Val told me that Abie’s immune system was compromised and that he shouldn’t have received the vaccines. Before the session was over, Val gently used BodyTalk to help bring some quick relief to Abie. Two days after the session with Val, my husband called me at work and said he had found Abie sitting on our living room rug with our other cat Sylvia. Abie got up and walked from our bedroom into the living room to sit on his favorite wool rug by the couch. He would have had to walk a ways to get there. We’re amazed because the night before he was having a hard time even turning around. A miraculous feat! I don’t really consider myself skeptical but I was shocked by the sudden turn of events. I realized it was a sign that he would heal completely — and he has. Ten weeks later Abie is doing wonderfully and back to his old self. I am so grateful for Val and her gifts as a healer and a teacher. It has changed my life. I recommend her to anyone that has a pet. You’ll learn more than you could ever imagine.

• My Dog Stella is SO Much Better! Enlightening, Fun and More Productive Than Many Trips to the Vet
  Spending time talking to Val about my dog, Stella, turned out to be very enlightening, fun and more productive than the many trips to the vet have ever been. I contacted Val because I was concerned about Stella’s chronic urinary tract infections and allergies and I needed to know if there was anything Stella wanted me to know about her health or general well being. Val provided me with so much insight on my dog, that I could not possibly list it all here. For instance, she pin pointed specific problems with her food, and since switching her diet, we have noticed a significant decrease in the amount of yeast on her skin and a lot less scratching. She’s also much happier and more vibrant, and her fur even looks cleaner. Val also sensed some back pain in Stella and advised she have a chiropractic alignment. With that, we no longer need the pain medication that the vet had prescribed for what they assumed was “spinal arthritis.” In addition to all the health advice that was SO helpful, it was fun to hear what Val had to say about Stella’s emotional well being. She described Stella’s personality perfectly and when I asked if my kids bother her to much, it was fun to hear what Stella had to say: “it’s ok. I know they love me.” I am certain that I will work with Val again in the future, and I would recommend her to anyone who has questions about their animals!  ~ JoAnn Finger, Stella's Mom

• Our Bengal Cat Made it Home!
  Our Bengal Cat Made it Home! My dad was visiting me from out of town, and had brought his best friend, Pique a Boo, a beautiful Bengal cat. Pique, who is not at all used to the outdoors or my neighborhood, escaped from my house. We searched the neighborhood high and low, put fliers everywhere we could think of, talked to everyone who lived nearby, but a full 24 hours later, he was still missing. My dad was distraught and I have never felt so helpless. It finally occurred to me to ask Val Heart if she could help. She put me in touch with Tim, who had answers for me in a short time. Tim told me that he had communicated with Pique, and that the cat told him that he was calm and comfortable, and had showed him a pool, a creek that was close to a school, and an area with scrap metal. Tim asked Pique a Boo to return to my home. Tim recommended that I set a humane trap towards the back of my yard. Right around this time, my neighbor called to tell me that he had spotted the cat in the middle of the night, but couldn’t catch him! I immediately went to borrow a trap and my dad returned to my house. As soon as my dad pulled up, Pique a Boo casually walked up to my front door! After a full 24 hours of searching, calling him, he just calmly returned! He also told me that Pique was calm and comfortable- that was the last thing any of us had expected to hear. The cat went absolutely wild when he escaped a few times from my father’s house. I honestly thought Tim might have been off on that point, but he was completely correct! Thank you, Tim!

• Aggressive Attack Cat Now Polite and Well Mannered!
  “I want to let you know the update on my cat, Kitty. You may remember our session a few months ago. The subject was Kitty’s aggressive and inappropriate behavior. Well, since this session, Kitty has changed quite a bit. Now she always comes and politely asks for permit to jump on my lap and when I tell her, I’m not ready yet, but I will let her know when it’s ok, she will lay down and wait. Not once has she made a surprise attack spilling my tea or whatever I was eating or drinking. As soon as I call her and tell her it’s ok now to come, she runs towards me, jumps on my lap and straight onto my chest wrapping her paws around my neck and pushing her head under my chin. When she had enough attention, she still starts her “war howl”, but she stopped biting and scratching. She simply howls and jumps down. It makes really a big difference, if you can eat and drink in peace and quiet without constantly being on the watch, if this little monster plans one of her “jump-and-hit” attacks.” ~ Klaudia Schmidt, Cyprus
• Joyce L., Austin, TX
  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!

  Cats Are Natural Healers “After reading your article on how cats are natural healers I was thinking back when I was sick or hurt and how a cat would sometimes be around. I can’t actually remember how the cat positioned itself and such but still a good message. Val is something special. Her perspectives and insight seem so distant from our everyday lives. It kind of reminds me of my youth when I was so more open to such things rather than working my tail off.”

  Dog Easily Resolves Nighttime “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. You act as a sounding board.  You offer encouragement.  You help me address my fears.  You help me deal with my issues and those of my cat family.  When I get overwhelmed, depressed, discouraged, you help me see the truth of the situation.  You listen.  You give me techniques to deal with things.  You’ve kept me going and kept me “sane” through lots of changes and ups and downs.  You’re there for me when I have crises.  You’ve been a great friend.  So many, many thanks for all of that!”

  Helping Cat With Emotional Upset Over Owner’s Travels “When I met Val, we were both at a New York Publicity Summit and had signed up to be roommates. We both knew we weren’t meeting by chance alone. I loved that her last name was Heart and soon found out she was all that. Although we became friends, we also used each others services. One of my beloved cats was troubled and having a hard time with my leaving when I went on trips. Val did a session for him with me over the phone and I literally saw him transform during the session while we were on the phone together. It was positively uncanny how she helped him release a pocket of worry. I witnessed something definitely transpiring. In a way I’d never seen him act before, it was like he got rid of an emotional hairball then he acted as silly and loving as a young kitten without a care in the world. It was astounding to see this happen at the exact time she was doing her work. I’ve known a lot of psychics and readers and healers in my time and Val is the real deal. He became so much more carefree after that. She has a gift as big as her “Heart.”

• Cat and Owner Can Finally Live Together in Harmony Again!
  I didn’t think anything could help and I was at the end of my rope, ready to give my cat away. I just couldn’t take it anymore. In just one session, Val changed my relationship with my cat from one of long standing frustration, constant upset, love-hate — to one of effortless joy! Val listened to my grief and frustration with my life and my pet. She spoke loving truth, taught me new behaviors and skills, practiced them with me, and what happened next was utterly miraculous! Everything we practiced came to pass. My sleepless nights are over! I now have a cat who loves and adores me, and whom I love and adore. We are working together now, enjoying ourselves. I can’t wait to experience what Val will do with my life in human relationships. She really can hear the heart and soul of relationships. She hears the deep message of the heart and responds to it with love and peace, understanding and compassion, and for me has transformed my pain and frustration to joy and loveliness.

• Giving My Cats a Voice Aids in Our Healing – My Entire Life Changed!
  Literally after a thirty minute conversation with you, my entire life changed. In giving my cats a voice during their physical and emotional challenges, you shed a powerful light on my own situation. You gave me the precise information I needed to experience a dramatic shift in consciousness that has promoted healing on all levels for me and my cats. I cannot believe how much you have impacted my life in just two brief sessions!” ~ Stacie Williams, San Antonio, TX
• Schnauzer Conquers Severe Anxiety
  We started working with Val for our miniature 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 Huser, LaGrange, TX
• Horse Fully Recovers From EPM
  “I am very pleased to report that my horse, Zoie, who had a serious case of EPM has made a full recovery! Her vet is writing her up as a Miracle! She just had a follow up with her chiropracter and he was completely pleased at her progress. He felt she had turned a significant corner, and said he thought he was observing a different horse! I am now riding her again. Thank you for all the great work you have done with her (and Me!). It has made a huge difference for us. My hormones seem to have stabilized, and my weight has gone back to balance since our last session too. Yea!!” ~ Lynne Silver, Austin, TX
• Horse No Longer Destroys Expensive Hay! Behavior Problem Resolved
  “This is probably the one of the biggest success stories in regards to me that we’ve had so far. It has been, what? 10 days since we spoke with my dressage horse, Valentine, about not urinating on her hay! I’d tried everything I could think of, but nothing was working. Since our session, she has not peed on it OR spread it around her stall willy nilly, not even once! It is a Miracle! This is amazing! And will save me untold thousands in ruined hay!” ~ Kay S., Austin, TX

• Overcoming Bad Dog Behavior – We are a TEAM again
  “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!” ~ Patty M, Montana, breeder, trainer and dog show competitor
• Val is the Real Deal! Man AND Buffalo Have Improved Health
  “I have raised buffalo for the last 15 years. I was having a bad run of luck with newborn calves getting infected with blackleg disease, and dying within the first 2 or 3 months of their lives. It is a disease that isn’t supposed to affect buffalo, only beef cattle, and they vaccinate their new-born to prevent death. Not being able to vaccinate my calves, (can’t catch them, and the herd is very protective), I was at a loss as to what to do. A friend of mine recommended I contact Val, to see if, maybe, she could help.  So I did, and Val worked with me, and the new-born calf, who is now seventeen months old, and doing just fine. After protecting the calf, Val told me that I had some health problems that should be looked at, as well. After her success with the calf, I decided to give it a try, and it has been well worth it. I am in much better health now, than I was when I first contacted Val, and as I’ve already said, the calf is the first to survive and is now a young heifer, and has promise of a long and healthy life… (me too, I hope). Val is the “real deal”, no hype, no hocus pocus. A true empath, healer and psychic, as proven by her results.” –Hecetu Yelo,  (“It is true”) ~ J.D. Kotrla-Chipps, The Buffalo Man, Round Rock, Texas

  Animal Communication and Senior Dog Care Courses Help JoJo Through Difficult Time “Dear Val, I want to say thank you because what you have taught and shared have helped enormously. I was in your recent animal communication class for senior dogs. Although I did not join the discussions, I have listened to the recordings. I have also gone through your beginning animal communication home study course. I just want to tell you that your course and the senior dog class have helped me and in turn my dear girl, Jojo, a great deal in our most difficult time. Jojo has been suffering from heart problems and liver as well as kidney problems for a few years but was managed satisfactorily until early September when suddenly things took the downward course quickly. With the help of the vet and energy healing, she still had some good days in the last month of her life. With what I have learnt from you and others in the class, I trust I have done what Jojo has wanted to do, eg taking her to the Peak (we are in Hong Kong) for a walk in her stroller and taking her home on the day before the last day of her life on earth and having my mum holding her as much as possible (she said my mum is her grandma:-)). So I trust we have no regret and Jojo’s wishes fulfilled. Thank you. Please keep up with your good work. I really think more people should know and believe in animal communication so please keep up with what you are doing, and please try to spread your knowledge to other parts of the world as much as possible.”

  Punkin the Cat’s Amazing Journey and Life Changing Transition Words cannot express how eternally grateful we are for your assistance during the transition of our 16 year old cat, Punkin. My only regret is that I did not contact you sooner! Before our session I was struggling with many unanswered questions and concerns about his well being. I felt helpless as I watched him decline so quickly. He had become increasingly vocal in the recent months and I could sense that there was something important that he was trying to tell us that I just could not gain clarity on. At times he also seemed confused and lost as if he could not see or sense his environment. The insight that I gained from our session and the synchronicity that followed was life changing for me. He also had Kitty Alzheimers or dementia, and you gave us very useful advice on how to help him with that. His entire body relaxed. He perked up and was very lovey. He didn’t cry all night. One of my main concerns is that I did not want him to suffer. You told me in the session that he would give me a sign when he was getting ready to go. He amazed me by managing to climb into our hammock all by himself, I have no idea how he did that, but as I cuddled him, it felt like this was his sign. In the morning we went to the Vet with just a little fear….(mostly mine) . He went into his carrier with very little resistance and he talked to me the entire time. I kept reminding him of your conversation with him and he calmed. Our Vet was amazing. She did an exam and confirmed that it looked like kidney/liver failure. She talked us through the process of euthanasia just as you had and put my mind at ease. He drifted off to sleep. We talked with him, stroked him and when he took his 2 last breaths she leaned down and whispered to him “There’s the Rainbow Bridge, be free!”. It was so peaceful. I felt his spirit float out like a feather on the wind. I am releasing a ton of emotion today. Mostly gratitude and joy for a life well lived. I thank you with every cell in by being for the work you do. Your gift enabled us to have a weekend of communication, closure and peace instead of uncertainty, guilt and fear. Your intuitive insights were real, clear and practical. They all made perfect sense! You not only confirmed my gut feelings but added very powerful and common sense approaches that helped my formulate a plan of care for what turned out to be our final days together. I feel like now I have more peace and closure about many unanswered questions. Thank you Val, from the bottom of my heart!

  Dealing with Long Held Emotional Issues Helps Owner and Dog Both! “I wanted to Thank You for the very beautiful and powerful session you conducted for my wife and her dog, Wendy.  You helped both of them clarify the course of the next few months, and in the process helped Nancy bring to the surface and deal with feelings she had been avoiding.  I know it was a truly healing experience for both of them. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping my family.”

  Getting Closure After Death of Much Loved Cat! “Cosmo was as close to a soul mate as a cat could possibly be. We bonded deeply in the months after I rescued him as we worked together to get him off insulin. We were successful after 9 months. Cosmo was eight years old (best guess) when he died and I had him for almost 7 years. His death was sudden, violent and he was missing for 9 days before my neighbor told me he found his body. I never saw Cosmo after he died, as my neighbor had already buried him before telling me, but from the description, it sounded like a raccoon killed him. He wasn’t allowed outside at night, so this tragedy occurred when it was still daylight. The circumstances of his death were about as traumatic as they could possibly be, and not seeing him after he died made closure even more difficult. The closure session I did with Val and Cosmo was such an important healing experience and it really helped me cope with his loss. One of the things I liked about it was saying goodbye to both the good and bad things. As much as I loved Cosmo, he did have some bad habits. It helped to deal with the complete picture, instead of whitewashing things and turning him into a kitty saint. The process of preparing for the session was important too, because I really thought about Cosmo and reviewed our time together. Even though I talked to Cosmo frequently when he was alive, and always told him how much I loved him, it was important to be able to say that one more time. Even if I had been with Cosmo at the time of his death, I couldn’t have said all the things to him that I got to say during the closure session. Yes, it was painful, but it was healing and I am grateful for the whole experience.”

  Dog Overcomes Pain Problems! “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 be 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!”

  Dog Regains Health “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 my self 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 Hearts 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. Our session came and it was so beautiful and profound it is hard to put into words. Val communicates with animals from the highest possible place…she touches the sacred place in beings and heals from this place Willy had allot to say about the purpose and reason for his illness and how i could heal him. Being able to communicate to him so precisely enabled me to see him as the high spiritual being he truly is and in thus doing he started to heal himself in the session. He said that the something that was twisting in his stomach was unwinding and that he was already feeling the pressure release. During this session, Val applied healing to every being in my household and gave a rating on what Willy was taking and eating as to what was most beneficial and least beneficial. 36 hours later Willy’s fluid build up was totally and completely gone. The Dr. giving the ultra-sound (3 days later) said there was NO fluid in his abdomen and that what ever was causing the the disease was gone, she said that she would even call it a miracle. In retrospect, if someone I know is in trouble, before I do anything I will call Val, for my animals, for my Grandsons, for myself. i have recommended her to anyone I think might be open to listen. I will gladly pay her fee and gloat at the money i have saved on dangerous surgeries, medications etc. I am so thankful for Val Hearts gifts and talents and I can contest that she is indeed a Master Healer.”

  Dog Get’s Sense of Balance Back 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!!!

  Getting a Sense of Closure after the Passing 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 exising pet. Her knowledge and insight are amazing.”
• Rita H., Dallas, TX
  Animals Have a Purpose Too! “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.

  Abused Horse’s Behavior Issues Resolved – Sense of Closure After Passing “Val has helped me multiple times with my horses Tequila and Duster. Having problems with Tequila, I gave her a call. Tequila had been from home to home and abused at times. He was very head strong and hard to handle. During our session, we learned he no long wanted to run barrels. I agreed that day to stop, and from that time on his personality and demeanor changed. We had a very special bond of trust with each other. Tequila was a great friend. He died at the age of 18. Once again, I called Val to help in this matter. Tequila knowing that I did everything possible to save him and that he was alright, helped me with the grieving process. He will be missed and always loved.”
• Joyce T and Kati, Dallas, TX
  Dog Reflects Owner’s Illnesses! “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.”

  Horse Owner’s Health Improves – Able to Keep Her Horse! “When I first met Val, I had been diagnosed with terminal multiple sclerosis and hadn’t much longer to live. I was looking for someone to help me find a home for my beloved Russian Arabian gelding, Tailor Made, who I had raised and trained. Through Val’s assistance, I not only didn’t have to give him up, but I began recovering my health too. Also, I got to watch a remarkable friendship blossom between her and Tailor as he taught her many things. I’m grateful for the extra few years we had together, and for the loving care and support Val so freely provided. In December 2001, Tailor’s lifelong recurring colic episodes got the best of him, and he left us to go teach somewhere else for awhile. We love you Tailor. God speed — until we meet again.”

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 After Angela had been working with me for a few more months this is what she had to say: “Just wanted to send you some new pictures of my girls.  Honey’s gray stripe that was down the middle of her back is gone.  She still has gray but more dispersed and a little more concentrated under her chin, but look at those ears!  I think they are beautiful.  Kathie has always looked good to me.  She has a beautifully muscled body.  Thank you for all of your help.  Angela,”

I have been consistently impressed with Val’s ability to pinpoint the issues and am very pleased with the results I experienced.

  Dog’s House Training Issues Resolved! “Val, I just wanted you to know that after you had that one session with Chico, he stopped urinating indoors.  I must admit that every once in a while he slips, but there was a major change after your session. My little female Chihuahua had turned into the Tasmanian Devil after a visit from another female puppy. Her angry behavior continued after the female puppy left. However, once you communicated with her, she became the beautiful little docile girl she once was.

  Horse Overcomes Illness to Compete Again! “From Sarah Griffith, SKG Dressage, Aug 2007:  “I can’t believe that only a year ago, my 20 year old Grand Prix Dressage horse, Libero, was terribly ill. Even though the vets couldn’t figure out what the problem was, he was so sick they wanted me to put him down. It was touch and go there for a while, and when I contacted you, I was a mess. You helped us communicate with each other, and Libero told you how he was feeling, where the pain was coming from, and that he wasn’t ready to leave yet! That gave me the hope I needed to keep going and not give up. The vets thought his career was over but Libero didn’t agree with them. Thank God I listened to you. Now, against ALL odds, Libero and I are back in training, working towards completing our titles. We are actually showing again! I can’t thank you enough, Val.” From Sarah, Feb 2008:  “Hi Val! I have some new info.  Libero was in a special ultrasound clinic this weekend as a test subject.  Lets just say he was the talk of the clinic and not because the joint looked so perfect.  They do not know why or how he is sound!  His joint has so many problems.  But I am about to leave for a horse show with my trainer telling me I am going to kick some ass!  The vets only comment was that Libero loves what he does so much he is willing to work through the pain!  I can give you a more scientific account of this but I have to look in my notes for the correct words.  I really feel like I have been through a magical experience with you and my horse!

• Bridgett & Steven H, La Grange, TX
  Aggressive Dog Behavior Resolved “My husband and I first started using Val’s services to help us with our dogs, Heidi and Speedy.  Heidi was aggressive and unpredictable, and Speedy was all over the place!  We used to dread taking them on walks, and they barked at strangers and family alike.  Heidi had bitten several people and I was a bit afraid of her.  Their aggression seemed to be escalating and we didn’t know what to do.  We never knew what would set them off, and lived in fear that they’d bite someone or get in a fight with another dog.  She taught us so much in a short amount of time! They became really well behaved and  reliable.  We actually looked forward to going for a walk with them!  That was amazing and something we never thought would happen!  And as we learned to communicate with our dogs ourselves, things got easier and easier. Then I got pregnant with our first child.  Val’s healing work and gentle therapies helped me have an easy pregnancy and delivery.  It was fascinating when the dogs told us things about the baby as it was growing inside me. Since Heidi had never been comfortable around children, we were terribly afraid of what she might do when we brought our baby home.  Val worked with us, helping us all build our confidence as we learned how to give Heidi good clear signals and support, and Speedy more direction about what we wanted her to do.  It turned out that when we brought Luke home, it was a non-event!  We’d never have believed it possible before. I’m sad to say that Heidi’s difficult personality and chronic pain issues got the best of her, and we decided to do the compassionate and safe thing for all of us.  With heavy hearts, we wound up putting her down last spring.  We know we did the right thing by her and our growing family.  And after talking with Heidi through Val, we know that Heidi is fine now too, and is happily watching out for us in spirit. I also decided to work with Val on some personal issues and I’m thrilled to report What’s happened.  We’ve worked through some marital issues and now my husband and I are closer than ever before!  I’ve also suffered with a long time addiction to cake and sweets that began in college.  And in our last session, Val helped me bust the addiction!  Before, I Couldn’t stop eating until it was all gone and I’d find myself taking frequent trips to the bakery for more.  I even confess I had taken to hiding sweets and would “plot” how I could get seconds or thirds at a party and no one notice.  I knew it was time to get help. Now, things are going really well with limiting sweets.  I was really proud of my self during the holidays as Steven and I split a piece of pie and it did not even taste that good!  Thank you for all of your help and we hope you have a Happy Holidays!”

I don’t want to know where we would be without you.”  — Tracy B. and Aries, 6 year old warmblood gelding, Fenton, MI From Tracy B., January 7, 2009 – “I wanted to give you an update:  Belle is doing so much better, she is now acting like a very happy puppy! She loves to play ball and is happy to go for rides in the car, she is very well mannered and is such a delight.  When my Dad got her from that breeder in Texas and sent her to me, she was in such bad shape.  She could not seem to learn anything.  It was like she was in her own little world and I could not connect with her at all. I am so glad I hung in there.  She is a real treat now. I also wanted to share with you our final overall for this past year.  Aires and I ended up getting the following: UNITED STATES DRESSAGE FEDERATION: bronze medal, all breeds award- Adult Amateur 3rd level – reserve champion UNITED STATES EQUESTRIAN FEDERATION: Leading breeder- Adult Amateur 3rd level champion Performance Horse: National- Adult Amateur 3rd Level champion AMERICAN WARMBLOOD SOCIETY: 3rd level Adult Amateur – reserve champion MIDWEST DRESSAGE ASSOCIATION: Adult Amateur 3rd level year end- 3rd place WATERLOO DRESSAGE SERIES: Adult Amateur 3rd level champion Aries is doing well and much better, not sure if we are gonna move up to fourth level this year or not.  I prefer to wait until he has developed the strength.  He is still struggling some with a few movements, so we may just do 3rd again this year, which is fine for me.  I am just so happy to have him and get to enjoy him.  Lots of Love!”

  Mystery Unhappiness and Chronic Lameness Resolved & Problem Show Hunter/Jumper Turned Around! Your work with Slim has been fantastic. After a cross-country move I could tell she just wasn’t happy. I gave you a try because nothing else was helping. You were amazing and now she is so much happier, back to her normal self. And you helped address her ongoing lameness issues. I look forward to our talks like I would a dinner party or special holiday! After your great work with Slim – you helped me find a show horse for hunters. Since I am learning jumping – I needed a very good-minded horse. We “visited” with several horses before finding Cory. She was a surprise and has been a treasured gift. She wasn’t a sweet horse or suitable for beginners but your conversations with her made it a lot easier to give her a try. She keeps surprising everyone with her willingness to put up with my amateur mistakes and her depth of character – she tries her best and always gives me 100 %. People who see her now assume she was misunderstood, or that she likes us better, but in my heart I know this turnaround is due to you. She is such a snuggler now and loves attention. And we’re   competing together, and doing really well!”

  Fighting Pack of Dogs Now Calm You started me on a new path and a week later my formerly fractious pack is sitting here around me calmly.  No one is fighting, they are not growling at each other constantly, they do not bark all the time anymore, and they are happy to listen to and obey me.  It seems like a miracle but it is not, just the results of listening to someone who really knows what she is talking about and can communicate that effectively to others. Communicating with understanding really is the key. It is interesting to note that all I have to do now is think about us all sitting here talking to you and they calm right down LOL!  They are responding very very well.  The changes you suggested are proving very effective and their behavior and manners have changed dramatically and quickly. Given what they told us about throwing up and how they were feeling, I changed their food immediately. Lou is much better and has not thrown up since.  They even act like the new remedies and foods are a Huge Treat!  LOL  Think that I am saving money with their new diet too but have not done the cost analysis yet! Winch is MUCH better.  I treated him for pain like we talked about, and the next morning he woke up DIFFERENT.  His eyes were bright and wide, I never noticed that the poor thing was squinting in pain because it came on gradually!  Feel bad, but it is fixed now.  He is totally changed and romps and plays some now, much perkier. THANK YOU. Val, it was really great working with you.  I think it was a great value, and cost effective considering all the input I got and how well they’re responding now.  Thanks again for everything, and please take care. Love & hugs.”

  Wonderfully Healing Session - What a Gift! Thank you so very very much for our private session last week. After losing Oso, my big giant bear of a dog a month ago, I needed to “talk" to him. Not only did I get to talk to him on the phone with you that day AND reconnect with him, which was wonderfully healing, but the night after our call, I had the most remarkable dream. In my dream, a great big Tibetan Mastiff (TM) visited me. He looked a lot like Oso but wasn’t so I asked him who he was. He replied that he was the grandfather soul of Oso and all of the other TM’s. He was so very ancient and wise. He said he was checking on me. He wanted me to know Oso was off on his adventures far away exploring his new home and would be back. It was a lovely dream with a most magnificent grand dog spirit visiting me. I felt touched and blessed and finally at peace. I am so grateful for your communication with animals and that you can share that with me. What a gift. Big hugs!

  Grand Prix Dream Horse’s Mystery Lameness and Bad Attitude Turned Around In ONE Session! I finally got my dream horse – an 11 year old Grand Prix dressage Andalusian stallion – and from day 1 I had problems! He arrived from across the country stressed and upset at his new environment and at leaving his prior trainers’. Then, he foundered as a result of gelding surgery a couple of weeks later and nothing we tried helped him heal. Desperate to help my horse I turned to Val for the first time. I could not believe what happened in just one session! She was able to quickly and confidently get the information we needed to help treat him properly. Plus, we tapped into what he needed from me as his new partner. Feeling hope for the first time I immediately practiced what Val taught me and within ONE session with him that same day we were on the road to recovery and to a new partnership. Since then, Val’s sessions have helped me learn how to ride passage, piaffe and to continue to create an amazing partnership with this extraordinary horse. Val’s work has changed my life with this horse — and with ALL of my horses — forever! I continue to get regular sessions with her, as I’m eager to understand what my horses are trying to tell me. Thank you Val for saving my horse and for saving my relationship with him… my horses thank you, to
