I tried a retrieval yesterday and this is what I came up with.  My guide was all in black like someone I worked with recently but became the largish figure I am becoming used to.  There was no sense of movement but then I saw a human figure who appeared to be suspended from a wall or door with his (?) head drooping.  I didn't know if the person was hung or why or how he (?) was suspended like that.  I tried to talk to the person and to let him know we were taking him elsewhere.  

I also had a clear vision of boxing gloves and I don't know if he or she was beaten or what the meaning of that was.  

The "destination" we arrived at was unclear to me but there was a specific picture in my mind of a very happy dog which seemed to be "beckoning" on our arrival.  It was a light brown dog with a sharp black muzzle with upright ears that curled over toward the front.  I don't know what kind of dog that is.  It seemed to be ahead of me and turning back to see if someone was following, and there was a happy feeling.

I don't know why this was so fragmentary but it was specific enough I thought I would make a record of it here.

This sure sounds like a retrieval to me blink. Good one. ;-)

Hi blink,
maybe the dog was the retrievee's dog (or a thought form of it) and working as a leader for the retrievee for reaching the right place.

That would be my interpretation, Spooky.  Don't really know, but I love how the retrievals work...there always seems to be a beginning, middle and end.  And the end is always better than the beginning.
