Animal Communication · Leeds

A good session starts before we meet.

Hello, I’m Dawn. I’m in Shrewsbury; you’re in Leeds, or Bradford, or somewhere out towards the Dales. It doesn’t matter, because my Animal Communication sessions are by Zoom or telephone. What does make a difference is a little preparation, so this page is about exactly that.

Before the session

Three things that help, and one that doesn’t.

01Choosing the photograph

Pick one where your animal is looking at the camera, or at least where their eyes are clear. It doesn’t need to be beautiful. A clear phone photograph is fine.

02Writing your two questions

Open questions work best: “How does she feel about the new baby?” rather than “Does she like the baby?” Think about what you’d most want to know if you could only ask twice, and write them down.

03Finding an hour

Somewhere you can talk without being overheard, with a cup of tea. You don’t need your animal with you; many guardians find it easier when they’re not.

04What doesn’t help

Rehearsing what you think your animal will say. Come with curiosity rather than expectation, and let the session be what it is.

During and after

What happens in the hour, and what you take away.

I’ll have spent time with your photograph before we start. On the call I’ll tell you what I’m receiving from your animal: feelings, images, sometimes very specific things. You can ask your two questions when you’re ready, and we’ll talk through what comes back. It’s a conversation, not a performance.

Afterwards you have the recording. Listening again a week or two later, you’ll often hear things you missed the first time. If something comes up that your vet or a behaviourist should know about, I’ll say so plainly.

Any animal

Dogs, cats, horses, and the rest.

Most of my professional experience is with dogs and horses, but I work with all animals. The preparation is the same whatever the species, and so is the fee.

Fee

What a session costs.

One fee, agreed before we book, wherever in Yorkshire you happen to be.

Animal CommunicationOne-hour Zoom or telephone session, for a living animal or an animal in spirit. Includes a photograph of your companion, two questions from you, and a recording to keep.
£95

Questions

From guardians in West Yorkshire.

Can I ask more than two questions?

Two is the shape of the session, and it’s a good discipline: it makes you think about what matters most. If something important comes up during the hour, we’ll follow it.

What if I don’t have a good photograph?

Send me the best you have. If I need a different one, I’ll ask before we book.

Does my animal need to be calm or awake during the session?

No. They can be asleep, out on a walk, or in another county. I work from the photograph.

How far ahead do I need to book?

It varies. Get in touch and I’ll tell you honestly when I next have an hour free.

About Dawn

The person on the other end of the call.

I’m Dawn Stone, an Animal Empath and Animal Communicator based in Shrewsbury, and a qualified Pet Bereavement Counsellor. I’ve worked professionally with animals and their guardians since 2006, and I share my home with Millie, my Jack Russell; she and Mylo, who is in spirit now, taught me most of what I know.

More about me and how I work

If your reason is a loss

Communication with an animal in spirit works the same way, from a photograph.

And if what you need is support for yourself, my Pet Bereavement Counselling is a separate service, beginning with a free call.

Ready, or nearly

Send me the photograph when you have it.

Or send me a note first, if you’d like to ask anything about how it works. Either is a fine place to start.

With blessings, Dawn
