To marci about Adi Shakti and the dog

[Guest guest]

Dear marci ~ (Please note; this is a long post ... don't read it if you

don't wish to.) I think when I previously responded to this video, I mentioned

the dog, but I forgot to tell of my own love for dogs and all animals. When I

was a child I had a dog, and he was poisoned by a neighbor. It broke my heart,

and then, for some reason, I developed a deep seated fear of all dogs, no

matter what size they were. If I was out walking and a dog came up to me, even a

small one, the first thing I did was find the closest car and get on the

hood, or the roof, if the dog was big. I had nightmares about being chased by

large dogs.

 

Then much later, I think I was in my 30's then, I got a dog, and then

another. I had some difficulty with the dog so I hired a trainer, and we worked

through some stuff, for both of us, I think. When I moved to Oregon, I left my

dogs with my then room mate. But soon I had another dog, and then when I moved

out of my parent's house (again), I left that dog with them because they had

fallen in love with him. While I was still in Oregon, but living in a small

neighborhood, I was out walking one day. This dog with no leash or collar was

watching me. I started to walk towards him (my fear of dogs long left behind;

I had become absolutely fearless), and he then began to walk towards me.

 

It was as if God/dess had placed us in the same place at the same time. I

got my old leash and made a makeshift collar and then walked the dog all around

the neighborhood, hoping that nobody would say (s)he owned him. Pepper and I

had instantly bonded, and we have been soul mates ever since. And I don't say

that lightly, but I feel that animals can be companions and soul mates and

angels, to their human counterparts. I notified the local vet and the local

police, all steps in making sure that if he was just lost, his human " owner "

could find him. When I went to one house to ask a friend of mine about the dog,

she said, " Linda. " Very abrupt, then, " Nobody owns that dog. He just showed

up here yesterday. This is a place where people dump their unwanted pets. " I

couldn't believe it ... that anyone would " dump " a dog, or a cat or a

kitten.

 

I rescued several other dogs, but at one time or another, during my journey

in the west and southwest, I found them homes. Pepper stays at my side; he is

there for me through thick and thin. If he thinks something is wrong, he will

come up and push his face into my hands to let me know he is there. I love

Pepper, and I basically love dogs. If I was healthy, I would become a

trainer. There is nothing so wonderful as a well mannered dog and a well

mannered

owner. (As opposed to the whack 'em in the nose, or give 'em a kick type). I am

absolutely fearless with dogs now, even those I don't know ... partly

because I've learned to tell (easier with animals than with people) which dogs

will

be hostile and which will not, and partly because it is so easy for me to

bond with a dog.

 

Pepper is a beautiful Border Collie, Australian Cattle Dog (Heeler) mix. He

has the typical black and white divisions of the Border Collie and the longish

hair, but on the white part there is this beautiful gray mottling, a

smattering of spots or drops (why he is called Pepper). He has the sweetest

brown

eyes. He was 6 or 7 when I found him, the vet couldn't be completely sure, so

he is 14 or so now, in the glow of his older age. But he still loves to " go

get the toy " and run back with it in his mouth, while with his head and neck,

he " shakey, shakey, shakes. " (I realize this is prey behavior; most of dog

play is based on them being connected back, through time, to wolves and having

to learn to hunt. I am sorry for going on for so long about my beloved dog. I

know how much Amma loves animals, and I think She would love Pepper if She

ever met him. In a way, he is Her emissary, sent to me to give and receive

love. Jai Jai Ma ~ Linda

Namaste

 

dear Linda . . .thanks for sharing your story of dogs and Pepper. . .truly

enjoyed reading it. . .have you heard of horse whispers and dog whispers?. .

.. .from what you related about Pepper. . .i think he must be a human

whisper. . .I am quite familiar with the breed of Australian cattle dogs. .

..they are known as being one of the smartest of breeds. . .and are so very

loyal and keen. . .Thanks for sharing this with me. . .so glad Pepper is

with you and is such a beautiful companion. . i often feel that my animal

companions have truly been guardians of light and blessing also. . . Aum

Amriteswaryai Namaha . . .marci
