My Story

As far back as I can remember, I have shared a special relationship with animals, the ability to understand what they are feeling and thinking, the ability to truly communicate with them. Never did I know this to be more true than through my work with horses (although a certain mischievous scurry of squirrels might have been my first true inkling). I wanted to know each horse's secrets, the more challenging, the greater the reward. The privilege of a horse allowing you to know him or her, a gift without price. Horses were the first to teach me (and continue to teach me) how to truly listen and hear what an animal wishes to communicate. This ability to communicate with animals has only grown over my twenty years of working with animals, whether as a trainer or in the veterinary field. My joy, my purpose in life, is to share this knowledge with others, to improve the lives of pets and their two-legged owners. Imagine a world where we are all able to have the best relationships with our pets, ourselves, and each other. Life is full of magical things, and one way to experience that is through better communication with our beloved pets!

Love, joy, and paws,

Julia Fontaine
