Welcome,
DogsLoveReiki.com is my personal mission to be "Your Dog’s Best Friend!”
I help dogs by utilizing the powerful art of Reiki which can accelerate healing, reduce or eliminate pain, revitalize, and energize your pet.
My love of dogs and the unique relationship I have with them goes back to my childhood, where I grew up in a large home surrounded by an extended family of aunts, uncles, cousins, and their dogs. I myself was an only child and I was quite sickly for a number of years, so when my cousins went off to school I would sometimes stay at home as per doctor’s orders. I spent a great deal of time with large Doberman Pinschers and pit bulls, and I can tell you that despite their present reputations, they were wonderful friends. Almost every morning I would wake up and then snuggle into, and even under these beautiful animals to share feelings of complete warmth, safety and security with them. I can still smell their popcorn like aroma now, and almost feel their smooth, soft coats as I remember how we would drift off to sleep together…
After studying healing arts and martial arts for nearly twenty years, I now know that the dogs and I were sharing our need to de-stress from the frantic world around us and relax., restore and renew ourselves. It was not easy for these dogs to deal with all of the commotion going on around them, and as I grew up, I would find other dogs in need, and help them too.
I have found stray dogs while hiking in the woods, playing in parks, driving on the road, and even while bicycling. Since my own dogs have always been “rescues” themselves and have generally disliked other animals invading their space, I’ve only been able to take in one of those strays I found. The rest found new homes with friends or acquaintances of mine, or were placed in “no kill” shelters. Of course, they all received Reiki while they were with me.

When I decided to study Reiki formally from master instructor Amy Rowland, I did it with the intention to help others. At that time I didn’t know it could help dogs and other animals too. I then found out that I had been using Reiki as an intuitive healer throughout my whole life; I just didn’t have a name for it. If you are skeptical, I ask you to recall a time in your life when you have been injured, such as when you might have slammed your knee or your shin into the corner of a bedpost while walking past it. Now, please think carefully about what you did right after it happened… After some reflection, many of you will remember that the very first thing you did upon impact was to grab the injured area and keep your hands on it for awhile. Why? Because each of us has Reiki energy within ourselves. So you may have already experienced Reiki on a small scale in your very own life without even realizing it.
However; not every one has the time, inclination or finances to follow a calling like this, and we each choose our unique path in life. What I’ve done differently than you is to spend many years learning how to work with and master this energy.
Now that your best friend needs this healing energy, I would be honored to offer my services.
And if you’d like to experience a session yourself, I treat humans too!
Peace,
to discuss your pet's needs.
