Magical healers who 'cured' these pets after vets had written them off: Sounds barking? These owners were sceptical too - until their animals defied the odds
- Nicci Evans' dog Dylan was paralysed and his vet suggested putting him to sleep.
- She carried him into healer Clyde Hughes and after one hour he jumped up .
- 'Healing' uses energy therapies and may include reiki, crystals and dowsing
- Healer Avril Priestley stunned vets by curing her dog Ella after terminal cancer.
Nicci Evans could almost feel her heart breaking as she carried her dog Dylan into the animal healer's clinic. It was a last resort.
Five-year-old Dylan was paralysed after slipping a disc a few days before and the local vet had suggested putting him to sleep.
For Nicci, 49, the thought of losing her best friend was unbearable, so she gambled on one last throw of the dice and made an appointment with an animal healer.
'When I carried Dylan into the clinic,' she says 'he couldn't move his back legs or wag his tail and he was just miserable with pain. I felt guilty for dragging him there.
'Even as the healer worked on him, I was sceptical. I couldn't believe anyone could help a dog in such dire straits.
'But after just over an hour, Dylan suddenly got up from the floor, wagged his tail and ran out of the room. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it.'
No drugs had been administered, only the ancient art of 'healing' had been used.
'Healing' is a broad term that's used to describe many different types of alternative therapies, with reiki being the most common. Others include crystal therapies and spiritual dowsing.
They all work slightly differently but are based on the concept that there is unseen energy flowing through us that keeps us alive — and if the balance of this energy is disturbed, we become ill.
The theory is that a trained therapist can restore the flow so we'll feel well again.

And it's not just used on humans. In February, the Mail revealed how healer Avril Priestley had stunned vets by curing her dog Ella this way after a diagnosis of terminal bone cancer.
But until a few years ago, if you'd asked Nicci, an NHS bereavement counsellor and patient liaison officer, whether she believed in it, she'd have laughed.
Now, as the sound of a healthy Dylan playing with his squeaky toys fills her home every day, she's a convert.

The problem began when he was three and injured himself playing with some other dogs.
'I didn't see how it happened but he took to his bed and wouldn't move or eat,' says Nicci, a mother-of-two from Ammanford, Carmarthenshire.
'His disc had burst and it had trapped his spinal cord. He had to have an urgent operation and remained at the vet's for five days.'
Two years later it happened again, spontaneously. 'The vet told us it would probably keep happening — there was obviously an underlying problem. Each time we were looking at £3,000 for an operation plus £1,000 for physio. The insurance wouldn't pay out because it was a pre-existing condition.
More importantly, could we keep putting Dylan through all that? The pain and surgery?
'The vet said we should consider putting him to sleep. It was an awful, awful time. Dylan's so cheeky, extremely loyal, and losing him was unthinkable.'
It was then that Nicci recalled how a friend's Alsatian had been helped by a healer called Clyde Hughes.
'I wasn't convinced — we were talking about a dog needing major spinal surgery — but my partner, Phil, said "What have we got to lose?"' By the time they got to the clinic, Dylan had deteriorated. 'He was looking at me as if to say, "Mum, give me a break!" and lying on the floor, unable to move. It was unbearable.
'Clyde put a crystal either side of Dylan and ran a divining rod — like a wooden wand — over him. He put his hands on Dylan, saying there was a blockage in his energy in his back and he was channelling lots of good energy.
'Phil and I kept looking at each other as if to say "What is he doing? Whatever does he expect to achieve waving a wand over the dog?" I kept thinking how embarrassing it was going to be to have to carry the still-paralysed dog out and thinking of ways not to make Clyde feel bad.
'But then, after about 75 minutes, there was a miracle: Dylan jumped up on all fours and shot off. I had to chase him to catch him.
'Words can't describe how I felt. I was utterly amazed and could barely believe it.
'There's been no recurrence and Dylan has more energy and sparkle than he used to.'
Clyde, 54, has been a healer all his life. His grandmother was a psychic, and as a child he'd see healing sessions at his local church.
As an adult he studied many different forms of healing, and went on to gain a doctorate in complementary medicine.
He says: 'When you're trained in healing, you can scan all the cells in the human body psychically. They should all be bright. You're looking for any part of the body with dark cells — which means they're blocked. That's where illness comes in, or emotional stress.'
Clyde, from Swansea, uses divining rods to scan the body.
'With Dylan, all his spine was dark so I held crystal rods either side of him and connected with pure energy.
'It comes into my heart and floods down into my hands and into his spine, removing the restrictions. When you remove restrictions, the body wants to go back to the way it was.'
To a layman, it sounds ludicrous. How can anyone summon an energy and put it into a dog? And how can it cure something as serious and as acute as paralysis?
But Clyde swears it does. 'I've seen six paralysed dogs and got five of them walking.'
And it's not just dogs. Eight years ago, he noticed that a feral cat who lived in his garage obviously wasn't well. 'This cat had never let me anywhere near him,' he says. 'Then, one day, I went in the garage and he was just lying there, clearly injured.'
The vet said Thomas, as the cat became known, had been hit by a car and damaged the nerves in his spine, affecting his tail, bowel and bladder.
'An operation wasn't possible so I started giving him healing every day for an hour. I'd put my hands on his spine and place energy into it.
'After the first week, his tail began to work. A week after that his bowel, and within six weeks his bladder. It was amazing.'
There were other benefits too. 'As soon as I started working on him, his wildness went and he became a tame cat. He'd put two paws around my neck and hug me — as if to say thank you. He moved into our house and took over. He's about 11 now and my wife Anne and I adore him.'
