The Animals Voice

How Do I Get My Horse Ready for the Olympics?
What does it take to prepare a horse for the highest level of sport — especially when the horse seems to be saying no?
Polish national team eventing rider Mateusz Pabijanek joins Ditte Young on The Animal’s Voice with his elite horse, Upsi.
Mateusz has big ambitions for Upsi, but one challenge remains: he doesn’t always understand his horse’s behavior.
At times, Upsi stops and refuses to go forward. He may try to leave the arena, refuse to load into the trailer, or even rear when he feels too much pressure. Yet according to Mateusz, there seems to be no consistent pattern to when or why it happens.
So, what is Upsi trying to communicate?
Through telepathic communication, Ditte connects with Upsi and uncovers experiences from his past that may explain far more about his behavior than Mateusz realized.
Together, they explore one of the hardest questions in elite equestrian sport: 
When a horse and rider are under pressure, who feels it first?
In this episode, you’ll hear:
• What Upsi carries from his past, and how it may still influence his behavior today
• What comes first when a horse feels pressured: the horse’s reaction or the rider’s pressure?
• How a horse and rider can unintentionally trigger each other
• What Upsi needs from Mateusz to feel safer and communicate more clearly
• How to balance enormous ambition with listening to the horse in front of you
• And perhaps the biggest question of all: 
How do you win with your heart when you also want to win at the highest level?
Can listening more deeply to your horse make you a better competitor?
Join Ditte Young, Mateusz Pabijanek, and Upsi for a fascinating conversation about pressure, trust, communication, and what it truly takes to become a team.

In this special episode of The Animal’s Voice, Ditte Young sits down with actress Denise Sanchez, known for her work in Bosch: Legacy, NCIS, Mayans M.C., and the upcoming film Laura Louise.
Denise has a lifelong fascination with spirituality and metaphysics, which leads to a compelling conversation about the surprising connections among acting, intuition, spirituality, and telepathy.
As an actress, Denise steps into another person’s world — sensing their emotions, motivations, and experiences to bring a character to life. But could that process be closer to telepathy than we realize? Ditte and Denise explore what happens when we quiet our own minds enough to truly tune into someone else.
Then the conversation turns to Denise’s dog, Harper.
Denise wants to better understand Harper’s past and why she reacts to certain situations the way she does today. Through telepathic communication, Ditte gives Harper a voice and explores the experiences she may still be carrying with her — revealing a deeper perspective on behaviors that have sometimes been difficult for Denise to understand.
How much of an animal’s past stays with them, even after they’ve finally found a safe and loving home?
And could learning to step into another being’s experience be the common thread connecting acting, intuition, and telepathy?

Can My Dog Tell Me What Food Makes Him Sick?
Is your dog a picky eater, or could they be trying to tell you something?
In this heartfelt episode of The Animal's Voice, Ditte Young connects telepathically with Dawg, a beloved dog from Los Angeles, California, whose family has spent years trying to understand why mealtimes have become such a struggle.
His devoted mom follows him around the house, encouraging him to eat and wondering whether he's simply being selective or if something deeper is going on.
During the session, Dawg shares what eating feels like from his perspective. He reveals why he turns certain foods down, which ingredients don't feel right in his body, what he genuinely enjoys eating, and what helps him feel his healthiest.
This episode explores the difference between a "picky eater" and a dog communicating discomfort, sensitivity, or food preferences in ways we often overlook.
You'll also hear practical insights that may help you better understand your own dog's relationship with food.
Whether your dog refuses meals, struggles with food sensitivities, or simply seems impossible to please, this conversation offers a fascinating look into what might be happening from your dog's point of view.
In this episode, you'll discover:
Why some dogs refuse perfectly "good" food.
How telepathic communication can reveal food preferences and sensitivities.
What Dawg says he truly enjoys eating.
Why understanding your dog's perspective can make mealtime more peaceful.

Sometimes the answers aren't found in the food bowl. You find them by listening to the one trying to tell you what they need.

Is My Dog Happy Competing?
In this heartfelt episode of The Animal's Voice, Ditte connects telepathically with Sugar, a competitive dog who struggles whenever she enters the ring. Her family wants to understand why, and whether there's something deeper behind her behavior.
Together, they explore an important question many devoted dog owners quietly ask themselves: How do we tell the difference between the goals we have for our dogs and what our dogs truly need to thrive?
This conversation isn't about judging dog sports or competition. Instead, it's about learning how to recognize the individual behind the performance. Every dog has a unique personality, different motivations, and their own way of experiencing the world.
Sugar shares what competing feels like from her perspective, giving her family the opportunity to better understand her needs while strengthening the trust they already share.
If you've ever wondered whether your dog genuinely enjoys an activity or is simply trying to please you, this episode offers a thoughtful and compassionate perspective on listening beyond behavior.
