At the age of 3 years, our dog Jasper began responding to
loud noises - thunder, gun shots, etc. He would go to the darkest corner of the house he
could find, scratch and dig at the floor with his tail firmly tucked between his legs. For
such a normally happy-go-lucky dog, this was miserable to see. It developed further to his
exhibiting the same behaviour when the skies darkened (as if a storm was coming) or if the
lights flickered. We tried several avenues to overcome this: cajoling, petting, even
ignoring him, as well as using essential oils, homeopathic remedies and Bach Flower
remedies - all to no avail.
Having seen 'Talking to Animals' we felt we really were in
a 'nothing to lose' situation. Margaret Fisher has visited Jasper twice - and even after
her first visit we saw improvements. There have been one or two minor hiccups, but overall
the change in him when there are gunshots is amazing - he still reacts (but not as
severely), but each time we use TTouch and within a very short time he yawns, relaxes and
lays down to sleep. I have no doubt that as time goes on and we continue to use TTouch on
a regular basis Jasper will regain his confidence!
Thank you Margaret!
