Welcome.
We have a very important topictoday about pet loss and grieving
their loss, what it all meansand how to recover.
Welcome to Howling at theMoon, where the mystical meets the
practical and the K9 spiriguides lead the way. I'm your host,
(00:23):
Heather Leigh Strom. In 2022,I experienced a sudden, life changing
spiritual awakening after alifetime of struggling with who am
I and why am I here? For fivedecades, the world felt cold and
confusing. Now I see thepatterns, the purpose, and the bigger
(00:48):
magical picture. My mission tohelp you find your way through your
own awakening journey. Hereyou'll discover limitless possibilities
for spiritual growth, powerfulhealing frequencies and extraordinary
energetic professionals, eachdesigned to guide you into deeper
(01:12):
healing and remembrance. Someepisodes feature enlightening wisdom
from spiritually evolved guesthealers, visionaries and authors.
Others are led by themultidimensional canine spirit guides,
themselves sharing theirunique intergalactic wisdom and frequency.
(01:34):
If you've been craving deepertruth, multidimensional healing,
and a little cosmic magic,you've just found your pack. Listen
and watch on Spotify orYouTube and bring the magic back
into your life.
So this is another call toaction from the K9 spiri guides.
(01:58):
I was preparing for aninterview with a podcast that specifically
focuses on this topic, theloss of a pet and grieving and support.
And as I was preparing forthat podcast, the K9 guide were
(02:19):
imparting upon me the trueneed that Humanities has right now
for this type of grief. Andthey do have a specific message for
those of you who are grievingthe loss of a pet and they wish to
(02:40):
offer you healing and supportand insight actually that will help
alleviate your feeling ofloss. So if you've read my book,
you know that I haveexperienced many losses of pets over
(03:01):
my 50 some years. Having owned30 of my own personal dogs, it's
understandable that I havelost most of them at this point in
my life. So I've been throughthis process countless of times and
each time it's different. SoI'm in. My intention is not for this
(03:24):
podcast or this information tobe triggering. So if it is a delicate
topic for you, please try andstay with me. It will help you. If
you can stay in theconversation and actually participate
in the healing session at theend, it will help you. There are
(03:50):
a few things that they want meto share with you about our pets,
particularly the dogs and whywe experience what we do when they
cross over that will help usunderstand better and it will relieve
the sense of loss weexperience when they leave. The first
(04:16):
concept that they want you toknow is that your canines, as well
as all of the animals in yourlife. But for the. But for the topic
of this conversation, we'regoing to focus on dogs. But your
dog is part of your soulfamily. And what I mean by that is
(04:39):
they are every bit as equal toa soul mate, a spouse, a partner
that you are searching for oryou're choosing to spend your life
with or your experience with.That's why your connection to them
(05:00):
is so deep. These animals arealso your soulmate. And I know most
of us who've had dogs feelthis, and we've always suspected
this, because that connectionis so powerful, unlike anything else
(05:20):
we've ever met. The reasonit's powerful is because our ego
doesn't judge, doesn't get inthe way. And one thing they want
us to realize about thisconnection is that because we aren't
resisting it and putting upwalls like we do with people, that's
(05:40):
what makes it so great. So ifyou could imagine having the same
type of relationship with thepeople in your life, what if you
had that same level ofrelationship with everyone you encounter
throughout your lifetime oryour day? Think about that. How glorious
(06:03):
would life be? How incrediblewould this planet be? And that's
part of what the canines arehere to show us and to teach us.
And we've kind of dropped theball on that. So unlike our relationship
with our dogs, when weinteract with people, our ego gets
(06:25):
in the way, our walls go up.We're more judgmental with people
than we are with dogs. We aremore compassionate with our dogs
than we are with people, morepatient with our dogs than we are
with people. Imagine if wecould apply all of our experience
(06:46):
with our dog to other people.Think about it. What would that take
for me? I'd have to feelcompletely vulnerable and open. The
same way I feel when I agreeto love a dog that I know I will
(07:08):
outlive. Right. And you acceptthat dog, no matter how the dog is
to you, you fully accept thatdog. So that's one of the messages
that's coming through from thecanine spirit guides. We need to
turn that mirror around andreflect that type of connection with
(07:32):
our fellow humans. Thatdoesn't help you with your grief,
but it does help youunderstand the purpose of that beautiful
relationship with that canine.Now, another thing they want you
to understand is that yourcanine exists on other planes and
(07:58):
other dimensions on otherplanets. Your canine is a much more
advanced spiritual being thanhuman than we are. So I know that
there's an impression thatSome canines are horribly abused
(08:21):
and they are. They've had areally tough go of it. They've had
some negative experiences.They've been engaged with other humans
that haven't treated them wellor have misunderstood them. They've
had horrible experiencesthemselves. And there are two points
(08:43):
that are coming through fromthe canine guides about that. Let
me see if I can keep themstraight. Number one is that the
advanced soul of the caninecomes through to be your teacher.
And I'll elaborate on that ina second. The second concept they
(09:07):
want to share is that some ofthese canine souls are like us. They
come here to learn and togrow. So some of them come in and
experience really horriblethings because their soul needs to
grow the same as our soulneeds to grow. So there could. Your
(09:30):
dog could be one of the twodifferent types of canines and you.
I can easily pick them outbecause I've had both types of canines
in my life. As I look back onit now, and as I've been shared this
information, I can look backon the dogs in my life and go, oh,
(09:51):
that totally makes sense.Because some of my dogs were completely
ill equipped for this planet.They could not interact on a functional
level with humanity, with howthings work here, with the energy
here. They were kind of in atotal panic state all of the time
(10:17):
and didn't like it here atall. It's kind of how I felt a lot
of my life. So I could easilyidentify those dogs. And then there
are other dogs who weremasters. I mean, you just looked
at this dog and you went, wow,there's a lot going on there. You
can see it in their eyes. Youcan see the wisdom that's just pouring
(10:39):
out of them. These are the,the specific souls who have come
to teach you. They have cometo guide you, and they have come
to share a frequency ofhealing with you. Sometimes these
dogs are also abused.Sometimes they're in horrible situations,
(10:59):
but they volunteered to be inthat very situation in order to help
humanity heal. So they want usto understand that it's not about
necessarily now. This is aleap. So hang with me. It's not necessarily
(11:21):
about the experience that weperceive that the dog is having at
that moment, becauseeverything they experience here is
designed to help us on ourjourney here. So it's kind of hard
to give you examples of that.And I know that for some of you this
(11:44):
is a huge leap because some ofus still feel like animals are helpless
and we have to care for them.But what I want to share with you
now is that they are actuallycaring for us, which is a real flip
as far as what we've beenbelieving this whole time. So just
(12:08):
let that sit for a moment. Itmay agitate you, it may make you
angry. You may resonate withit instantly and be like, oh, that
makes so much sense. Eitherway is fine. There's no correct way.
If it does agitate you, thenthere is healing that needs to be
cleared around that energy.Anytime you're agitated, there's
(12:33):
a healing opportunity. So keepthat in mind as we go through this
topic. If you feel like you'vebeen activated or agitated, then.
Then you need some supportthere. There's some clarity that
you're not seeing that needsto be brought forward. Okay. Another
point the K9 guide arepushing, shoving through, and I've
(12:58):
spoken on this quite a bit, isthat is about the timeline. We know
that humans outlive canines.It's a factor of their genetic map.
They're not designed to behere forever because they are a healing
(13:19):
element for. For humanity. Sowe're going to need more than one
healing element as we progressthrough our journey, because hopefully,
as we progress, we're going tobe climbing the ladder, we're going
to be changing, so our needsare going to change. And because
of this, the dogs have to comein at a certain time and they have
(13:42):
to depart at a certain time.So you may not be aware of this timeline,
but your dog is absolutelyaware of it. And I demonstrate this,
this in my book, because thereare more than. There's more than
one story about how a dogmagically just died at a very young
(14:03):
age. And there was a specificreason for it that I could not understand.
So that's another point thatthey wish for me to share with you
to help you understand thisloss in your life. It's not actually
a loss when these caninesdepart from our life. It's for a
(14:27):
reason. So there's a big shiftcoming up for you. And oftentimes
they have to leave in order toallow space for the growth that you
are about to catapult into. Ormaybe you need a different guide
for that type of growth, forthat type of healing. So they need
(14:49):
to bow out. They need to stepout of your life, because if they
don't, you're less likely tomove on and upward. So they sacrifice
their ability to be with youand in your life, although they never
leave. We'll talk about that.They sacrifice their position on
your behalf for your highestand greatest good in order for you
(15:13):
to make a new connection thatwill help you rise to a new level.
So those of you who've maybeonly had one dog and losing that
dog was so traumatic, youcouldn't bring yourself to have another
one, because you just can't gothrough that again. What I wish to
(15:37):
share with you is that everytime that happened for me, the dog
that came into my life next,that shared space with me after that
grief, was able to connectwith me on an even deeper level.
The relationships kept gettingbetter and better and better, and
(16:01):
the more I grew, the more Iunderstood, the less it hurt, the
less pain I felt. As they toldme they were going to depart, and
I willingly walked throughthat threshold with them. They want
(16:23):
me to encourage you to not putthat wall up, to not say, I can't
do this again. Because onething we need to understand is that
as we experience this pain ofthis loss, that opens up a cavern
that allows us to healextremely deeply. Our dogs connect
(16:48):
with us so deep that when theyleave it, that's why we feel such
deep, deep, horrific pain.Right? It's like nothing you've ever
experienced. Maybe, I mean, Idon't have children, but maybe if
you lose a child, it mightfeel that way or even more so. But
that pain allows us access toa. A very deep part of ourselves
(17:15):
that we don't normally haveaccess to. And that's an opportunity
for us to heal that verydeeply. So when they leave us, it's
not necessarily a bad thingwhen we feel that kind of grief or
that kind of sorrow, if welearn to work within that space,
we can achieve a tremendousabout amount of healing. And what
(17:38):
they share with me about thattime. So there might be some of you
who are like, well, what do Ido? What? This doesn't feel good.
What am I supposed to do withthis? And here's your answer. They
want you to turn inward. Theywant you to reflect. Spend some quiet
time with some meditationmusic. You can meditate if you know
(18:00):
how. Connect deeply withyourself. Go inward and ask, what
was that all about? What was Iattempting to learn from my experience
with this dog? What was themessage from the dog? What am I learning
(18:22):
now? What am I struggling withnow? What is behind this loss? What
is behind the emotion? What isit bringing up? It's like a purge
of emotion when you experiencethat loss. And it's very important
to actually let that purgecome and let all of that emotion
(18:43):
leave you. And in doing so,you will have an opportunity to bring
in more of your own divinesoul. It's actually a gift when they
create this space, it's a hugegift from your canine, from the divine,
from your own higher self,from your own soul. It's a gift because
(19:08):
it causes you to go inward andit also causes you to ask questions,
to seek answers, to. To seekunderstanding why. Right? Sometimes
we go through life and wedon't ask why. We don't look for
answers. We don't askquestions. We're just so busy in
(19:33):
our busy lives that we don'ttake that opportunity. So sometimes
these grief moments happen inorder to trigger us into a growth
pattern, into a growthopportunity. I have had dogs leave
just because I needed thatpain to agitate me into growth. Think
(19:57):
about that for a moment. Ifyou are grieving the loss of a dog,
ask, what growth do I stand toreceive in this moment? It's a gift.
They do this for us. It's agift for us, for our souls to mature,
(20:19):
to grow and expand. Now, I didmention they never leave us, and
I want to expand upon that.There's a couple stories in my book
that will demonstrate exactlywhat I mean by this. But everything
(20:40):
is energy. We're energy. Thedogs are energy. All animals are
energy. Plants are energy. Thesoil is energy. Rocks are energy.
Water's energy. Everything isenergy. This planet is an illusion
of energy. So we are embodyinga texture. Our bodies represent a
(21:07):
texture of energy. When theyincarnate as our dogs, they are just
energetic beings encapsulatedin that energy program. Right? So
just because the body sloughsoff doesn't mean your canine, your
companion, your soulmate, haschanged. It hasn't left you. They're
(21:32):
just freed up to becomeenergy. And I give an example of
this. When I lost Tori in mybook, as soon as we buried her, she
visited me in pure energy. AndI felt her around me, and it was
so overwhelming to feel theenergy of her. I asked her to leave
(21:56):
because I. I couldn't handleit on top of the grief. But she offered
it to me so I would know shewas still here, so she would offer
me comfort. And realizing thatI. That she hadn't left me as much
as it looked like, because herbody was now lifeless. They don't
(22:18):
leave. You can still talk tothem, you can still interact with
them, and they will come back.That's another thing that should
give you relief of your grief.If you want them back, ask them to
come back and ask them to showyou how to find them. And then you
(22:42):
have to open up. You mighthear things, clues. You might see
things that are clues youmight have memories or dreams that
will guide you in thedirection you need to go to find
them again. You have to beopen to this input so that you can
find them again. So it's notthe end when you lose a pet, when
(23:04):
you lose a dog. And this isthe same for all animals, but we're
just talking about caninesright now, so that's something they
really want you to understandbecause there are so many people
who struggle in this spacewith their grief or their canine.
And this can also apply to anyother type of grief. If you've lost
(23:28):
a person in your life, aparent, a child, if you feel like
you've lost yourself, thoseare all the same forms of grief.
So this podcast could actuallyapply to all of those scenarios.
So feel free to use thisfrequency for all of those examples.
(23:48):
But because there's such adepth of this grief on the planet
right now, so many people arefeeling so lost without their best
friend. The canine spiritguides want to offer you an energetic
upgrade, an energetic healingto help fill that void that you feel
(24:16):
and also to help enlighten youto the purpose of that connection,
the purpose that that dogserved in your life. So we're going
to do a channeled meditationhere together. If you wish to receive
this healing from the caninespirit Guides, just acknowledge your
(24:40):
consent to receive itpsychically, energetically. You want
to be able to find a space tosit comfortably quietly where you
won't be interrupted. Pleasedon't be driving a car if you're
trying to do this. And pleasedon't lie down because it's good
if you don't fall asleep.Okay, so we're going to. I'm not
(25:05):
sure who's coming in, what K9 spiri guide is going to be sharing
with us. We'll find out whenwe get there. What I would like you
to do is to sit comfortablyeither on the floor or in a chair

ill equipped for this planet.They could not interact on a functional
level with humanity, with howthings work here, with the energy
here. They were kind of in atotal panic state all of the time
(10:17):
and didn't like it here atall. It's kind of how I felt a lot
of my life. So I could easilyidentify those dogs. And then there
are other dogs who weremasters. I mean, you just looked
at this dog and you went, wow,there's a lot going on there. You
can see it in their eyes. Youcan see the wisdom that's just pouring
(10:39):
out of them. These are the,the specific souls who have come
to teach you. They have cometo guide you, and they have come
to share a frequency ofhealing with you. Sometimes these
dogs are also abused.Sometimes they're in horrible situations,
(10:59):
but they volunteered to be inthat very situation in order to help
humanity heal. So they want usto understand that it's not about
necessarily now. This is aleap. So hang with me. It's not necessarily
(11:21):
about the experience that weperceive that the dog is having at
that moment, becauseeverything they experience here is
designed to help us on ourjourney here. So it's kind of hard
to give you examples of that.And I know that for some of you this
(11:44):
is a huge leap because some ofus still feel like animals are helpless
and we have to care for them.But what I want to share with you
now is that they are actuallycaring for us, which is a real flip
as far as what we've beenbelieving this whole time. So just
(12:08):
let that sit for a moment. Itmay agitate you, it may make you
angry. You may resonate withit instantly and be like, oh, that
makes so much sense. Eitherway is fine. There's no correct way.
If it does agitate you, thenthere is healing that needs to be
cleared around that energy.Anytime you're agitated, there's
(12:33):
a healing opportunity. So keepthat in mind as we go through this
topic. If you feel like you'vebeen activated or agitated, then.
Then you need some supportthere. There's some clarity that
you're not seeing that needsto be brought forward. Okay. Another
point the K9 guide arepushing, shoving through, and I've
(12:58):
spoken on this quite a bit, isthat is about the timeline. We know
that humans outlive canines.It's a factor of their genetic map.
They're not designed to behere forever because they are a healing
(13:19):
element for. For humanity. Sowe're going to need more than one
healing element as we progressthrough our journey, because hopefully,
as we progress, we're going tobe climbing the ladder, we're going
to be changing, so our needsare going to change. And because
of this, the dogs have to comein at a certain time and they have
(13:42):
to depart at a certain time.So you may not be aware of this timeline,
but your dog is absolutelyaware of it. And I demonstrate this,
this in my book, because thereare more than. There's more than
one story about how a dogmagically just died at a very young
(14:03):
age. And there was a specificreason for it that I could not understand.
So that's another point thatthey wish for me to share with you
to help you understand thisloss in your life. It's not actually
a loss when these caninesdepart from our life. It's for a
(14:27):
reason. So there's a big shiftcoming up for you. And oftentimes
they have to leave in order toallow space for the growth that you
are about to catapult into. Ormaybe you need a different guide
for that type of growth, forthat type of healing. So they need
(14:49):
to bow out. They need to stepout of your life, because if they
don't, you're less likely tomove on and upward. So they sacrifice
their ability to be with youand in your life, although they never
leave. We'll talk about that.They sacrifice their position on
your behalf for your highestand greatest good in order for you
(15:13):
to make a new connection thatwill help you rise to a new level.
So those of you who've maybeonly had one dog and losing that
dog was so traumatic, youcouldn't bring yourself to have another
one, because you just can't gothrough that again. What I wish to
(15:37):
share with you is that everytime that happened for me, the dog
that came into my life next,that shared space with me after that
grief, was able to connectwith me on an even deeper level.
The relationships kept gettingbetter and better and better, and
(16:01):
the more I grew, the more Iunderstood, the less it hurt, the
less pain I felt. As they toldme they were going to depart, and
I willingly walked throughthat threshold with them. They want
(16:23):
me to encourage you to not putthat wall up, to not say, I can't
do this again. Because onething we need to understand is that
as we experience this pain ofthis loss, that opens up a cavern
that allows us to healextremely deeply. Our dogs connect
(16:48):
with us so deep that when theyleave it, that's why we feel such
deep, deep, horrific pain.Right? It's like nothing you've ever
experienced. Maybe, I mean, Idon't have children, but maybe if
you lose a child, it mightfeel that way or even more so. But
that pain allows us access toa. A very deep part of ourselves
(17:15):
that we don't normally haveaccess to. And that's an opportunity
for us to heal that verydeeply. So when they leave us, it's
not necessarily a bad thingwhen we feel that kind of grief or
that kind of sorrow, if welearn to work within that space,
we can achieve a tremendousabout amount of healing. And what
(17:38):
they share with me about thattime. So there might be some of you
who are like, well, what do Ido? What? This doesn't feel good.
What am I supposed to do withthis? And here's your answer. They
want you to turn inward. Theywant you to reflect. Spend some quiet
time with some meditationmusic. You can meditate if you know
(18:00):
how. Connect deeply withyourself. Go inward and ask, what
was that all about? What was Iattempting to learn from my experience
with this dog? What was themessage from the dog? What am I learning
(18:22):
now? What am I struggling withnow? What is behind this loss? What
is behind the emotion? What isit bringing up? It's like a purge
of emotion when you experiencethat loss. And it's very important
to actually let that purgecome and let all of that emotion
(18:43):
leave you. And in doing so,you will have an opportunity to bring
in more of your own divinesoul. It's actually a gift when they
create this space, it's a hugegift from your canine, from the divine,
from your own higher self,from your own soul. It's a gift because
(19:08):
it causes you to go inward andit also causes you to ask questions,
to seek answers, to. To seekunderstanding why. Right? Sometimes
we go through life and wedon't ask why. We don't look for
answers. We don't askquestions. We're just so busy in
(19:33):
our busy lives that we don'ttake that opportunity. So sometimes
these grief moments happen inorder to trigger us into a growth
pattern, into a growthopportunity. I have had dogs leave
just because I needed thatpain to agitate me into growth. Think
(19:57):
about that for a moment. Ifyou are grieving the loss of a dog,
ask, what growth do I stand toreceive in this moment? It's a gift.
They do this for us. It's agift for us, for our souls to mature,
(20:19):
to grow and expand. Now, I didmention they never leave us, and
I want to expand upon that.There's a couple stories in my book
that will demonstrate exactlywhat I mean by this. But everything
(20:40):
is energy. We're energy. Thedogs are energy. All animals are
energy. Plants are energy. Thesoil is energy. Rocks are energy.
Water's energy. Everything isenergy. This planet is an illusion
of energy. So we are embodyinga texture. Our bodies represent a
(21:07):
texture of energy. When theyincarnate as our dogs, they are just
energetic beings encapsulatedin that energy program. Right? So
just because the body sloughsoff doesn't mean your canine, your
companion, your soulmate, haschanged. It hasn't left you. They're
(21:32):
just freed up to becomeenergy. And I give an example of
this. When I lost Tori in mybook, as soon as we buried her, she
visited me in pure energy. AndI felt her around me, and it was
so overwhelming to feel theenergy of her. I asked her to leave
(21:56):
because I. I couldn't handleit on top of the grief. But she offered
it to me so I would know shewas still here, so she would offer
me comfort. And realizing thatI. That she hadn't left me as much
as it looked like, because herbody was now lifeless. They don't
(22:18):
leave. You can still talk tothem, you can still interact with
them, and they will come back.That's another thing that should
give you relief of your grief.If you want them back, ask them to
come back and ask them to showyou how to find them. And then you
(22:42):
have to open up. You mighthear things, clues. You might see
things that are clues youmight have memories or dreams that
will guide you in thedirection you need to go to find
them again. You have to beopen to this input so that you can
find them again. So it's notthe end when you lose a pet, when
(23:04):
you lose a dog. And this isthe same for all animals, but we're
just talking about caninesright now, so that's something they
really want you to understandbecause there are so many people
who struggle in this spacewith their grief or their canine.
And this can also apply to anyother type of grief. If you've lost
(23:28):
a person in your life, aparent, a child, if you feel like
you've lost yourself, thoseare all the same forms of grief.
So this podcast could actuallyapply to all of those scenarios.
So feel free to use thisfrequency for all of those examples.
(23:48):
But because there's such adepth of this grief on the planet
right now, so many people arefeeling so lost without their best
friend. The canine spiritguides want to offer you an energetic
upgrade, an energetic healingto help fill that void that you feel
(24:16):
and also to help enlighten youto the purpose of that connection,
the purpose that that dogserved in your life. So we're going
to do a channeled meditationhere together. If you wish to receive
this healing from the caninespirit Guides, just acknowledge your

(25:05):
