The photo was real - he did something that scared me and I instinctively, shouted, and did that. Then I discovered it was the care giver of the stallion who silently asked him to do that (she knew it would be safe for me).

Nina has been with us since 2012. We brought her from a dog kennel that year. She was 5 or 6 years by then.
She is an amazing guardian.
She was a sweet mother.
She loved to play.
Since last year she started a processā¦ of going back home.
She didnāt want to go to the beach anymore.
A couple of months ago she started blocking Solimar (our other dog friend) from being with her.
In October she was no longer so much interested in food (she used to love it) and no longer wanting to go outside for her walks.
In late November, a deeply touching encounter happened. I was outside reading āAnimal Talkā, with Solimar by my side, receiving some cuddling. She came to me also, asking for some cuddling (rare thing in the last weeks). As I was caressing her smooth hair, decided to ask if she had something to tell me, to what she replied:
āI am grateful for your patience. It was good. I go in peace. Let me go.ā
And she slowly went back to her place. Still looked at me once more on her way.
I think I will remember this for a long time 
On the 4th December she did not accept any food anymore (just some leftovers from us and very few) and has left her physical body yesterday, on the birthday of my father. She enjoyed seeing members from the family and we were very happy that she decided to go in such a gay day. Solimar was feeling it the whole day - more affectionate than usual and not eating so much, eyes more sentimental than usual. Heās still very sensitive today. I sang the whole time since we saw her dead until the body was buried 
I was deeply grateful for all the knowledge I have gained in the past months and strongly firm and loving in this delicate moment.
More and more I see that death is a processā¦ a period.
Thank you for this sharing space.

Yes I included the vulture video becuase @Bianca_Aga and I talked about Vulture peak, and historic ties.
Did not realize they lived so long.
I am so sorry for your loss. It is like losing a loved one from the family. My heart goes out to you and Solimar

One of the Animal communication people I have heard say that many pets know when it is their time to go, probably months, or at least days in advance.

thereās is a highly inspiring part in this video for meā¦
Solimar is still not 100%, since Ninaās passage.
I sang yesterday and could feel his body relaxing moreā¦
Ā» I will sing and dance with him nearby, in nature, today and see what will happen.
thanks.

Lol, me either, thats why I think the video had so much shock value. It took an animal that had a lot of negativity and prejudice attached to it, and showed it has a soul

Understandably so, it may take years, or even the rest of his life.
Maybe its time to get him a puppy?

I went to the beach with him yesterdayā¦
after singing and dancing, or should I say, in the middle of the dancing and singing, we played like in āthe old daysā I guess thatās what he was missing.
We did it again this morning in an incredible scenario of a pink beach! you can see it here:
We did think about a new puppyā¦ but not just yetā¦ otherwise it would be like a kind of replacementā¦
LOVED the video of the dog with the deer cubsā¦ beautifulā¦ Buttons waving his tail is so adorableā¦
the one about the cats is also so amazingā¦ usually cats enjoy bringing animals to the house in their mouth and DEAD!, such as rats and snakesā¦ great seeing them play with them all!.. hihihi
ācome on deer!āā¦ is an excellent expression! hihihi Iām gonna use it.

As usual, and as a relatively new member, I am late to the party here.
I had a very powerful experience with animal communication when one of my pets died. I had three rabbits- which I got in 2012 (the first two) and then 2014 (a third). the first to go, Eli, died when he was only six years old- which was especially devastating as that is like a human dying in their 40ās. I really pulled out all the stops trying to rehabilitate him after he developed a severe neurological disease. He recovered a decent amount but then it became a lot of up and down, which also resulted in a rollercoaster of emotion for me. Towards the very end of his life, to my great surprise I experienced the ability for us to communicate. The communication felt like it was entering through my heart, rather than the very āhead centricā communication I am used to with humans. It wasnāt so much in words as in impressions and images, although there were words at times. He had very dark brown eyes, and rabbitsā pupils tend to be large with no sclera (white part) visible- so his eyes looked like inky pools of darkness. I experienced a disarming depth when I looked into his eyes that I hadnāt before, and it was during those moments the communication/connection was the strongest. It was like looking into each otherās souls. I had kept working with vets and rehab specialists to give him a chance because he clearly still had a lot of fire in him and I felt a very strong will to live. (After all, his body, at age 6, was still young and had a lot of vitality/reserves). After so many ups and downs, during the last downturn- which is when this startling communication began- I felt him tell me that while he would be ok if we fought again through this current downturn with more/different medicines and continued rehab, he would also be ok if we just let this be the end. That he was ready to go, if I could be ready too. There was such incredible love from him through his whole illness and the directness of this pure love was all the stronger once the communication started. Incidentally, his entire personality changed after the onset of his illness. I have heard of similar things happening with humans, particularly those with a disease that affects the brain, like he had. He had previously been a rather skittish rabbit- unlike my other two which were very easy going and affectionate. But after his illness began he became profoundly loving. The love I felt from his heart at the end was overwhelming, expansive, and unconditional- which felt healing to me as I felt such pain over every little thing I felt I could have done differently/better for him.
The experience was life changing. I havenāt had anything like that since, with an animal, so I feel it was something remarkable that was a byproduct of his nearing death and āthe thinning of the veilā.

Thank you for sharing this. I will reply to it in deapth later, but wanted to let you know reading it was a big gift, and greatly appeciated. I found out today that a freind of mine died a few weeks ago. Painful news. I know she did not have any friends (other than me) and her family had more or less turned their backs on her. Was devastated that I missed the funeral. Reading this was just what I needed to hear, thank you.
The last time I saw her I took her to a Buddhist temple, she didnt like it, but I am hoping some positive energies stayed with her from that experience.

I am sorry to hear about your friend, and Iām sorry for your loss. I am glad Eliās story brought something good to your heart at this time, as he was like a conduit for love.

I feel you came in the right momentā¦
Ninaās eyes were also very dark and, at the same time, SO sweet. Your description matches somehow my experience with Ninaā¦ it was by the end of her life that I initiated conscious communication with her
this has deepened my communication with Solimar and the world!..
thank you so much for sharing your experience.
