The Journey Begins Within
Thanks to my dogs—and life’s relentless challenges—I awakened to gifts and a longing I never knew were buried deep within my soul.
Years of deep study and ruthless inner shadow work opened the doorway of opportunity, and the canines who happily joined our family helped me walk the path from heartbreak and overwhelm into a life of connection, storytelling, intuitive animal communication, and so much more.
Chronic health struggles and behavior challenges had me spinning. Too many opinions, too many “fixes,” and a gnawing sense that life had to be simpler.
We tried it all: vets, trainers, homeopaths. They patched holes, but we were still drowning in daily stress. Exhausted, I stopped trying to fix and control. I started listening — to the dogs, and to my own heart.
That’s when everything shifted. I changed, and so did they.
I never planned on being a writer. All the studies I did were for my dogs. I wanted them to live their best life. When I look back now, I see the gift they offered me, and it cracked me wide open. Everything has been a mirror and a map to unleashing my imagination, my intuition, and my voice.
What I saw in their eyes and what I felt in their soul wasn’t “problems.”
It was story. An epic, living story we were writing together. And what we created wasn’t just harmony. It was magic — messy, intuitive, fully alive.
That’s how Raidho Canine was born.
Now, I offer that same gift to others. Through grounded animal communication and vivid storytelling, I co-create epic tales of overcoming with you and your animals.
I strive to help humans remember who they are—through the soul of the companions who know them best.
Here, we don’t fix. We reflect. We create. We rise—with wild authenticity and legendary connection.

Beginnings is a heartfelt story about challenge, awakening, and deep understanding that this world is much bigger than we are. It is a story of how our animal companions bring more to our lives than we can comprehend.
Your dog isn’t here to be managed like a problem. And you’re not here to play drill sergeant, chasing control 24/7.
They’re here to wake something ancient in your bones, to mirror the honesty you find convenient to ignore, and to walk beside you as you remember how powerful and important your voice is in this world.
At Raidho Canine, we don’t slap Band-Aids on health and behavior issues. That's for trainers and vets. Our role is to be your adventure guide as we dig for the treasure underneath.
Together, we co-create epic stories of remembering, becoming, and finding the magic that’s been waiting for the perfect moment to show off.
Through animal communication and soul-level storytelling, I channel your dog’s voice into a playfully symbolic, living narrative that is always raw and real. We love to flip frustration into revelation and show you the myth hiding behind the mess.
I am the Alchemist Messenger, turning shadows into stories and stories into wisdom. Your everyday life becomes a legendary myth, full of symbology and depth.
Because ordinary doesn’t change the world. And you, my friend, weren't born to be ordinary. Neither was your dog.
The Raidho Canine Way®
Step into a realm where every sassy hiss, neigh, or bark, quirk, isn't just noise, it's inspiration. Every challenge becomes a story.
Raidho Realms is the storytelling portal of Raidho Canine, and the birthplace of Champions of Challenge—the original series where everyday struggles became legendary superpowers.
Here’s what happens when we work together:
The weird quirks that make your animal unique?
They shine larger than life.
The challenges that keep you up at night?
They flip into wisdom and myth.
The bond you feel growing as you embody your connection?
It gets crafted into a keepsake that outlives the moment.
These aren’t just stories you skim once and forget.
They’re transmissions. Blueprints. Treasures.
Playful, soulful, and sometimes hilarious—each story is infused with your animal’s energy and personality. They’re written to entertain you, to highlight just how deep your connection goes, and keep reminding you of who you really are.
Your story is waiting. Your dog is ready to show you the way.
You changed our relationship and our lives. Helping us to communicate on the same level improved our relationship 100%. Thank you for opening my eyes, my mind and my heart so I could see, hear and feel all her magic and love her honestly knowing that she is truly happy and secure.

Working with Kim at Raidho Canine was an absolute game-changer for our family and our beloved Astro. We were feeling lost, unsure how to handle his reactions to bigger dogs, and were even considering obedience training. But Kim showed us that the answer was something entirely different—it just clicked the moment we understood it.

This was an amazing and magical experience. Our life together has changed so much. The Wisdom all the dogs shared with us, it was amazing! So simple yet so profound. You have given all of us a beautiful gift. This was for me, the most incredible adventure I have had together with my dogs

When I contacted Kim for communication with Donny, it was because I wanted Donny to have someone he could trust to have a conversation with. To enjoy sharing his stories, knowing that Kim would facilitate the safe space for him to do so. And sure enough it was filled with memories of the things Donny used to love doing. Reading and recalling those times truly lifted me up too. It was a wonderful way to remind me to not just focus on the care-taking aspects of Donny day-to-day but to make space and time to listen to Donny share his favourite memories with me.

Kim has recently had conversations with 5 of our girls… wow, such incredibly profound messages from all of them. Since I’ve read (and re-read, and re-re-read 😉) the communications, something deep has been changing in them, in me and in our relationships, in very practical ways too.
Cécile and The 5-Pack
I had the time of my life and was blown away with the unique approach of having the dogs guide us through the six sessions. I have a much stronger connection with all my dogs now. Kim did a fantastic job facilitating and I can't wait for the next adventure.
