Talking to the Animals

Gail Lubrant

Testimonials  

Since there was a discussion recently about AC's, I wanted to give a personal recommendation.

I have had the opportunity to talk with 4 different ACs over the years, most recently 2 on the same case, and I was totally impressed by GAIL LUBRANT.

I always hesitate to make a recommendation like this, because a lot of people consider this field to be a bunch of hooey, but I know that a lot of you are like me and want to be proactive with your dogs' health.

I have had a particularly stressful situation going on with one of my dogs recently and had consulted with Gail about it.  I then had an opportunity to talk with another, more well known AC, and comparing the information I received from both of them, I have to say that Gail has an unusual ability to communicate with the animals.  The information she transmitted was much more specific to my dog and helpful in that she provided information about my dog's health that I had not even asked for and had no idea about, and turned out to be urgent.

The other AC spoke in generalities that could apply to most any dog, so I was quite disappointed with her.

Previously, I have spoken with 2 other ACs and neither of them impressed me, I never used either of them again.  This is the 4th time I've consulted with Gail over the years, each time I received relevant and pertinent information, and now that my dogs are all seniors, I plan to have her communicate with each one of them on a regular basis.

If you don't know Gail and would like to consult with her, please tell her I sent you.  I hope you will be as pleased as I was.

I’ve known Gail Lubrant  from long before she decided to fine tune her animal communication abilities.

My name is Lee Bristor.  I am “vice president” of a greyhound adoption group (Star City Greyhound adoptions) here in Roanoke, VA.    When we had our first “intractable” problem hound at the kennel, I called Gail to see if she could find out why Pat C, the greyhound, was always urinating in her crate.  We couldn’t, in all good faith, find Pat C a home until we could solve this problem.  Pat C had been checked at least once by our vet to see if there was an organic reason that she couldn’t be crate trained.  There were no physical or infectious reasons for her behavior.  We were almost at our wits’ ends trying to figure out what we could do to save this grey.

I suggested that perhaps I would try to find out from Gail why Pat C kept urinating in her crate, and whether we could correct the situation for her so that she could find a good home.  After emailing a picture of Pat C, I called Gail and asked her to please ask Pat C why she was always urinating in her crate.  It seems that Pat C had been doing this because the urine warmth was comforting to her.  When we asked why she needed comfort, she told us that the noise and number of dogs really overwhelmed her.  When she urinated in her crate, she was first comforted by the warmth, and then by a “familiar  scent” (her urine).  I had Gail ask her if there was something we could substitute that would comfort her as much as what she’d been doing did.  Gail told me that she was getting an image of the color yellow.  As I wasn’t at the kennel, I couldn’t tell what that might be.

When Sara, the president and kennel keeper got home from work, I told her what I’d found out.  I asked her to give Gail a call to see if she could possibly make some sort of “deal” with Pat C.  At that time, I found out that the yellow was a bag of rawhide chews that were placed on a crate across from the one Pat C occupied!  Gail helped us out by “brokering a deal” with Pat C.  If Pat C could try really hard to not urinate in her crate, Sara would do her utmost to find her a good Forever Home.  During the course of her conversation with Gail and Pat C, Gail mentioned that she saw that Sara had a blue basket with white lace around the edge sitting near Pat C’s crate -this was what Pat C had shown her at that time.  It turned out that Sara had a blue trash can with a white plastic bag inside it.  The bag was just folded over the top of the trash can!

To make the story shorter, Pat C never urinated in her crate again while she was in the kennel.  And, best of all, Pat C found her Forever Home just two weeks after she stopped her “crate activity”!

This was only the first time we had Gail help us with greyhound problems.  Since then, Gail has been very helpful and correct with all that she’s done for us.  I would recommend Gail as a very good resource for anyone who has any sort of pet problem that they need help with.  I could cite many more times that she’s been of great help to us.  However, as some folks know, I’d take up the whole website with my examples of why I feel that Gail is one of the best animal communicators here in the United States –if not in the rest of the world.

I am the director of Star City Greyhounds and Gail has been instrumental in helping with some of the hounds that come to the kennel with "baggage".  Having Gail get to the root of their issues makes it much easier to deal with them and find them homes where they are the most comfortable.  One case was a little beyond the norm.  An adopter had wrecked her vehicle, falling over quite an embankment.  Her rear window had popped out and her greyhound was ejected.  The woman was hysterical and fighting the emt's that were trying to rescue her as she wasn't wanting to leave without her dog.  The woman's sister contacted me and I rounded up some volunteers and was preparing to travel to the wreck site to find Charlene.  I had contacted Gail for information on where to look for Charlene and Gail called as we were in route.  The sad fact that was relayed was that Charlene had passed on from injuries received in the wreck.  She told Gail that she was behind a red building and she would show Flavor, my heart dog, where she was so she could be brought back home and buried.  The emt's had searched the area and assured me that there was no way that Charlene was anywhere near the red building, which turned out to be a small church.  We arrived at the site and I told Flavor to listen for Charlene and over the embankment we went.  Flavor went straight to the wreck site and proceeded to work her way down the hill towards a creek.  We got to the bottom and Flavor stopped.  I once again asked her to listen for Charlene and she took one step and turned her head to the left.  I crouched down and looked in that direction and there was Charlene, curled up under an overhang.  We were not gone over 10 minutes according to the other volunteers and when we came out of the woods we were directly behind the small church, just as Charlene had relayed to Gail.  I feel that without Gail's help in contacting Charlene we might not have been able to find her,  retrieve her body, give her a proper burial and give her adopter closure.
