A Pet Communicator may be just exactly what is needed. Many of you may never have
heard of them or understand what it is they can offer. They are not psychologists,
behaviorists, professional trainers, or veterinarians. They simply help owners and
animals understand each other better. Because they can “hear” animals and people
both, they are basically trained translators between the two. Along the way they share
common sense advise on their experiences with animals who have lived with them
around training, and certain fairly common behavior challenges, such as guarding food,
not respecting human leadership, potty training 101, etc. They partner with veterinarians,
behaviorists, professional trainers and family, to help the animal. I interviewed Cindy Huff
for this article, who along with partner Terri Noftsger, own Animal Communication and
Wellness Services www.acwservices.net .
Please explain what a pet communicator does:
Cindy- A pet communicator is basically someone who can receive information from
animals using telepathy. Telepathy is simply another "sense" (like hearing, sight, touch,
taste, and smell). When we receive information telepathically, the animal is sending us
sights, words, feelings, physical sensations, etc. Another way of expressing this is to say
that we are "translators" - we can understand the information the animal gives us, and we
translate it for the humans. We also do the reverse - we translate what the humans wish
to communicate to the animal, and send that information using telepathy to the animal.

What is a Pet Communicator ?
It is easy to help our bassets with the aid of our Veterinarians when our
basset kid is sick or injured but what about those other issues in regard to
behavior? Even when we have taken obedience classes, which help us
understand the way a dog thinks and why they do what they do in order for us
to know our response as an owner. But, there are other issues which pop up
such as fear of storms, separation anxiety, changes in the familiar schedule
for reasons dogs do not understand and owners often do not consider.
The 13th Annual Illinois Waddle 2010
Our Swingin’ Waddle Weekend
The theme for our 13th Waddle comes from the 40’s
era when the Big Bands like Glen Miller and Benny
Goodman entertained radio listeners and night club
dancers…when WWII troops were given a USO
“Home Away From Home” where they could relax,
meet people and dance. It was the era of zoot suits,
pin up girls and songs like “Boogie Woogle Bugle
Boy” and “Chatanooga Choo-Choo”. Help us create a
“Home Away From Home” this year at the GABR Park
for a weekend of relaxing fun for you and your bassets.
All Waddle information for the weekend is on this
website. The first step is to register on-line and set
up your own Firstgiving page. There will be no
Waddle packets mailed and your Firstgiving page can
take the place of pledge sheets. If you still prefer
using pledge sheets, you can print them out by using
the form provided. We’ve gone green!
If you need help, please call Pam at 815-584-1044
from 8am-4pm, M-F or Larry at 815-584-1005 after
4pm or weekends. The Waddle and the Basset
Ball/Auction in April are our only two fund raisers
during the year. All pledges, raffle items Corvette
tickets, donations and adoptions go toward caring for
the bassets. Please help us help the Bassets.
You need to stop by the registration table before you
enter the park. This applies whether you’ve pre-
registered or not. You’ll get all the information that you
need for the weekend.
We’ll see you at The Waddle!
