How do I prepare for a consultation? Animal communication is like carrying on a conversation with your animal. You begin by making an appointment with Donna. At the agreed-upon day and time, you phone her and describe each animal (name, breed, age, appearance). Questions often include: How do you feel? Do you like your food? How were you injured? Where does it hurt? Do you like this kennel/stable? How is the fit of your shoes/saddle/blanket?
