One day my wife went to our daughter’s place to take her dog called Dasha for a walk. Usually it is the most joyous activity for Dasha and she is always grateful for this treat. But that evening she was breathing hard and expressed not joy but only sadness . When my wife touched her and wanted to give her a cuddle she screamed displaying unhappiness. As the next day it was planned to renovate our daughter’s kitchen my wife offered to bring Dasha to our place next morning. In the morning, when Dasha came to our home, she did not greet us with joy standing on her back legs nor did she allow us to tickle her leg. She was breathing heavily, her head was bending down so that she could not look at us at all and her tail was hanging down as well. Instead of greeting me and lying down next to me as always happened before, she was just walking around me breathing with great difficulties. When I tried gently to pat her neck she screamed as she did the previous evening. I’ve realized clearly that Dasha needs immediate help. I did not have much experience praying for the animals though I’ve read and heard wonderful testimonies of healings. Though my heart was with that lovely dog but I still did not know exactly how to start praying for Dasha. My thoughts started wondering that the animals were not created as image and likeness of God, as man is, and therefore perhaps they are not spiritual and eternal. Suddenly the thought that “All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestations” embraced my consciousness. That thought became so real to me because of my study of the Science of divine Mind, described in the book “Science and Health with key to the Scriptures” written by Mary Baker Eddy. From that fact I’ve continued to reason that even though the animals perhaps are not eternal beings as man is, but because God, Mind created them, they also must reflect the beauty, health, goodness and perfection in their lives. Coming mentally to that point and seeing that Dasha was still suffering I’ve called to the Lord God with all my heart and I’ve started talking to Dasha claiming the truth about the dog as a God’s creation. I’ve said to Dasha with authority, “Dasha, God made you good and therefore you are free from disharmony.” Also I’ve refused to accept in my consciousness that some accidents or evil tongues (these were two seeming suggestions about her abnormality) can have power or take a hold over Dasha! As she was still wondering around I’ve continued to utter the truth for another 10 min until her breath calmed and she sat quietly in the corner. With some relief I’ve praised God for that first step and mentally still was holding the truth that all creations which God has made are good including Dasha and so nothing inharmonious could enter in God’s creation. In 5 min Dasha was already lying in peace. In 20 min I’ve stood up and in that moment Dasha as usual joyfully ran up to me holding her head up and giving me her leg to pat and shake it. Her tail was up again and she ran quickly to the kitchen to have her breakfast. But this was not the end of the story. After the walks Dasha sometimes experienced difficulties with breathing but after that Friday morning she comes home after walk with joy and without laboured breathing at all. I was so grateful to God for that healing and for learning that the animals as the children are so receptive to healing.
