As I begin the Sacred Spirit Journey to connect with Tannette’s angel dog Bella, I feel pulled into my heart. Not just drawn into, but actually pulled. It’s like I have a leash in my hand and I am pulled into my heart center by whomever is pulling on that leash on the other end.

That was quite an interesting way of connecting with a pet in the afterlife.

In my heart landscape, I see Bella. She was the one pulling the leash. She is radiant, healthy, and happy.

I say, “Hi, Bella. It’s good to see you. Are you okay?”

Bella says:

“Welcome, it’s good to see you too. I’m so glad that Tannette is reaching out to me. I am doing fine, and I am not alone. There is so much love and friendship here. She doesn’t need to worry about me. All is well.”

I keep getting an image of a black labrador, or similar dog. A big friendly one.

Bella says, “Yes, that’s a friend of mine. We go on adventures sometimes.”

Bella returns her focus to her relationship with Tannette, so I do not go further into it at this point.

In that moment I know that Bella wants to go see Tannette. It seems that Bella’s messages don’t just come in words but also in other ways. A knowing, feeling, or images.

Besides the image of the black labrador, I see numbers on the path before me. Not just any numbers but angel numbers and other significant numbers. For example 1111, 44, and 22. The numbers flash by fast as we follow that path.

We come to a place among some tall trees where Tannette is sitting on a bench by a big beech tree.

Bella jumps up on Tannette’s lap, and Tannette embraces Bella. A happy reunion.

Bella says:

“You wanted to know if I am with you now. Yes I am. That is my favorite place to be. That is my happy place.

Just call on me, and I’m by your side.”


Tannette asks, “Was it your time to go or was it wrong of me to play God? Did I let you go too soon?”

Bella says:

“You did so fine, my friend. My little body was not doing well. You simply did what your heart knew was right. Your love and your arms held me all the way. My passing was a peaceful one.”

Tannette asks, “Was someone there to meet you?”

Bella says:

“Your love eased my passing, and friends and angels welcomed me with much kindness on the other side. There was no fear or confusion, but peace, clarity and love.

Be at peace, for I am where I need to be now. I visit you in spirit, for our hearts and souls are of the same family, so nothing can keep us apart

Our bond goes beyond the physical, remember that. So now when I’m in spirit and you feel I am gone, I’m only gone physically, so if you enter your heart’s peace you will know I am right by you. Your heart will tell you. You will feel it too. And I am also sending you signs, like ‘throwing numbers’.”


I think: What an unusual and interesting phrase that is. You can almost see it happening . . .

Bella smiles and says:

“Exactly. I think of a number, or something else that then is converted into a number, and then flies to Tannette.

We communicate in many ways. She just needs to open up to more than the ones she can currently think of.”


Bella turns to Tannette and says:

“Look within, listen to your heart – and when you look without, do so with relaxed awareness, and you will see and know when there’s a sign from me.

Trust is a key word.

Trust in our love, in our hearts’ connection, and trust in the goodness of the Universe.

Let me walk you home.”


Bella walks before Tannette, making Tannette put a leash on her ‘so she doesn’t get distracted’.

Then Bella adds, smiling:

“It’s actually more as a help for her to sense me, and follow my lead.

Imagine me pulling on a leash you’re holding. That’s easy, isn’t it?”


On the way we stop. We’re on a country road, lined with big trees. Linden and oak are some I see. Through the trees, I see fields which the sun is shining on. a beautiful landscape.

We stand for a while and admire the landscape.

“Beauty is all around you and within”, Bella says to Tannette. and then jumps up in Tannette’s arms, and says:

“Close your eyes and imagine being home.”

Tannette does that, and in an instant, they are at home together. Bella is running through all the rooms, exploring, having fun. Tannette smiles, feeling joy and peace.

After ‘zooming’ around in all the rooms, Bella comes back to Tannette and says:

“So now I have blessed all the rooms. Please give my regards and my everlasting love to all my precious friends and family. I love you all.”

And then Bella looks Tannette right in the eyes and says:

“But it’s you my heart belongs to.

As you go forth with your life, allow yourself to grieve, but also allow yourself to rejoice, for our souls’ journey is not over. Our souls continue their joint journey in lifetimes to come.I am yours always.”


Bella angel dog quote
They sit down, Bella on Tannette’s lap. Being together, feeling the peace. Being together is so right.

“Call on me anytime, and I can help you return to the peace which is in your heart.”

Tannette thanks Bella, kisses her, then turns to me and says thank you. I say goodbye and end the journey.

Thank you… Thank you for taking time out of your day to help me connect with Bella. What you experienced meant the world to me, and it helped me open up to receive.

I am at peace. It’s not ideal that my little soul sister is not physically here with me, but I’m at peace knowing I did the best I could and she knows the amount of love I have for her.

One of her most exciting parts of our time together is when I would bring her leash out and she she knew it was adventure time. Her little body would dance with excitement. She was happiest on adventures. She would lead the way and I would continuously tug on her to keep her directed and moving.

As for the numbers, that’s for me. I am unsure why numbers are my thing, but numbers trigger my thoughts and memories. When I see certain numbers, especially birthdates that match my loved ones, it makes me focus on clearing my mind to connect with that person it draws me to.

I was a fan of math in school too… Numbers just connect with me. I lived in a house with the spiritual number: 7411 once… Therefore, the numbers passing you on your walk with Bella made immediate sense to me.

I thank you for connecting and sharing your journey with Bella. I was also able to follow your guidance and connect with her just prior to your journey with her which gave me peace in my heart. Your work and guidance are my saviors in this tough pet loss healing. Again, thank you. ~Tannette
