What is a "whisperer"?
A
whisperer is a human who understands and "whispers" an animal's language. This understanding permits communication and bonding to
occur, often without words.
I am not a pet psychic! I am not Cesar Milan! I have a natural gift for
languages, verbal and non-verbal: French, Spanish, math, canine body language, even the language of
gesture & interaction.
My goal is for you and your dog to be best friends and whisper to each other, too.
Nicole says
Whoever you are, whatever you are, there is only one of you, and. . . you
are special!
The world is a richer place because of the unique flavor each of us adds.
