Pet/Animal Stories ~ a dog's tale

A long time friend of mine in Miami has a beautiful young schnauzer. Luke is a strong, powerful and quite intelligent little dog. I had been staying at my friends place and spending some time with the dog, when I noticed it had a slight limp and would favor one side of its hind legs when first getting up. The other leg would remain off the floor as if he was protecting it. I asked my friend about it and he said Luke had been doing that for a few months. I thought it odd being the dog was so healthy and had no history of any accidents. 

One day I stayed home with the dog and asked it to come over to me. He responded and laid with me on the floor. I proceeded to ask him how he developed this hip/leg problem. I heard his spirit/soul tell me he had been kicked at two years old. When he was two he was still with his previous owners. 

I proceeded to explain to him that his body was holding a memory from an incident that happened in another environment. This new home he is living in is full of love for him and that there is no reason to hold on to memories from the past. I instructed him to allow the memory to be released from his body so that he could continue to have a fun and pain free life with my friend. I had my hand on his hip/leg the entire time. I could feel emotion from him just relaxing into this new truth.

The process took approximately twenty minutes. That was months ago and he has never limped since. 

Yes animals have a soul and yes they experience and remember things just like us.
