Animal Communicator Job Description And Lifestyle

By Dorothy Brown


Animals often provide messages through a series of non-verbal clues. An Animal Communicator often has the ability to comprehend these clues based on specific behaviors and moods. While some species are better at communicating than others, most all animals have the ability to do so.

One area in which a trainer and someone working as a communicator differ is that most often trainers are working with dogs, horses, lions, tigers and other animals which communicate vocally. Whereas, a pet psychic can often read the minds of animals based on silent as well as vocal behaviors. One area that plays an important role in this process is in being able to understand the traits of a number of species.

Whether silent or vocalized, most communications from animals relate to a need or mood. For example, a dog might turn bowls upside down when needing food or water. Whereas, others might groan, or guide someone to what they are trying to tell them such as Lassie, a border collie in the famous television series of the 1950s and 60s. Though, unlike Lassie, it is often a cat's meow which tells an owner a cat is hungry or in need of attention.

When it comes to humans understanding animal communication. Most often, it is the tone of the bark or other sound that allows an owner to know if a pet is angry, happy, scared or upset. As such, it is important to always listen and understand when an animal whether a pet or otherwise is attempting to communicate.

One of the most difficult species with which humans attempt to communicate are birds. Not necessarily cockatoos, macaws, parakeets or parrots as these birds have long been known as a talking aspect of the species. In fact, it is now been proved that parrots can carry on intellectual conversations with owners and others. At the same time, it is highly unlikely the bird on the window sill is going to say anything of great importance though may sing a beautiful song to greet the day.

When it comes to training birds to talk, that is a different story. For, repetition is often the key to success in teaching a parakeet or cock-a-too to speak. Whereas, research has now proved that parrots and possibly macaws can also carry on intellectual conversations.

While science has long been involved in the research of animal and human communication, the general population has only began to take this research seriously over the last few decades. In fact, society was very interested in the ability of animals to communicate with humans as early as the late 18th and early 19th century. However, rather than take the research seriously, animals suspected of having this ability were sensationalized and place in circus or other acts within the entertainment industry.

One of the most promising projects to show that this is true with dogs can be found in current Japanese research. For, there is currently a device being used in Japan designed by Dr. Matsumi Suzuki which is reported to decipher dog barks into specific phrases based on tone and length. As such, if this research is successful, dog owners and others may someday be able to better understand the vocal communication of dogs and other animals at any given moment in time.
