Telepathic Ties
Unveiling the power of behaviour training and telepathy
Meet Malaika Fernandes, a Dog Behavior Consultant & Animal Communicator based in Mumbai. She shares insights about her experiences and how being an animal communicator gave a new meaning to her life.
My love for animals, particularly dogs led me to pursue an internationally certified course with the late Mr. John Rogerson a renowned Dog Behaviourist & Trainer. My skill sets after that course equipped me to handle not just training puppies but modifying unwanted behaviours in adult dogs, working with dogs for scent detection, explosives etc. using positive reinforcement techniques centered around praise, treats, or toys.
Unspoken Connections – Bridging the gap between humans and animals
As I continued to update myself with learning about dog behaviour and training, I came across an “Interspecies Telepathic Animal Communication Workshop” which simply meant that one can talk to animals telepathically. Knowing this caused that dormant dream to rekindle of wanting to be Eddie Murphy from the movie “Dr. Dolittle”. Learning it made me realize that it isn’t a superpower but just an innate ability within each of us that was waiting to be woken up.
Zoey, a beautiful female labrador who I was training belonged to first-time pet parents; she was a lot of fun but would give her pet parents exceptional trouble by wrecking the home whenever I left their house. This began to become a pattern every time I visited. I was informed about her behaviour by the pet parents. I decided to connect with Zoey telepathically to find out what the issue was. Zoey told me that she had a very specific message for her pet parents about their teenage son’s behaviour which when conveyed caused a shift in Zoey’s behaviour. She no longer was destructive after they had heard what she had to say. After this episode, I used this combined form of approach for many pet parents.
The PPact Way
A dear friend suggested the name “The PPact Way” (Princely Paws Animal Communication and Training). The PPact way is an approach that I now use because it not just helps you understand your pet’s behaviour and manage it well but telepathically connecting lets one know what is that pets expect from pet parents. Training sessions are then done keeping in mind your furry friend’s free will at all times.
Putting knowledge to use, one case at a time
There was another case where I was working with a reactive Shih Tzu, Scooby. He had bitten people at home because they were not aware of the nuances of body language communication and often unknowingly encroached on his space and therefore, got frequently bitten by him. It is so important for pet parents to understand and identify their pet’s body language and avoid any triggers. This would ensure both the pet and the family are safe. However, as the weeks passed a new development had occurred. Scooby was biting his pet parents every time he climbed the bed in their room. When I connected with him, he showed me a visual of how every time he climbed the bed, he was getting hurt on his front jaws which would then cause him to react and bite when he was in pain. After having informed his pet parents they told me that they had recently bought a high-rise bed. To avoid further injury the pet parents attached a ramp so that Scooby could easily get on and off the bed without having to jump.
Pokri and his tantrums sorted
Here’s another case study of Pokri, an adorable Golden Retriever puppy brought just before the pandemic had begun so his folks were with him 24X7. When life got back on track post-lockdown, Pokri showed severe signs of separation anxiety. I began working with him to help his pet parents understand his behaviour and manage his anxiety. He had explicit requests about his diet. Pokri’s pet parents were vegetarian and were giving him only a vegetarian diet. But he conveyed to me that he wanted meat to be a part of his daily diet. I told the same to his pet parents and when they started giving him meat, his anxiety levels went down considerably.
Fables of Fabian
The pet parents of a Shih Tzu, Fabian got in touch with me for their furry friend is a ‘fussy eater’. Usually, as a behaviourist there are certain things that we suggest. First, diagnostic tests to determine whether the pet has a clean chit for his health. The second step is to work towards the pet’s behaviour and also involve a certified Canine Nutritionist for a diet plan that fulfills his nutritional requirements.
However, I decided to connect with Fabian to understand what else we could do to help change this fussy behaviour. He asked for his meals to be prepared in a certain way that appealed to his taste buds and asked for food to have texture. His pet parents implemented the feedback and I am happy to report that Fabian is no longer a fussy eater.
