Is there any way for me to talk to my Animal Companion all the time?

Within PFS, is there a way for me to be able to talk to my animal companion at will? (not a familiar, but an AC based off the druid AC list)

Be a nature oracle, not only do they get access to an animal companion, they also get access to this ability:

Quote:

Speak with Animals (Ex): Choose a specific kind of animal (eagle, fox, dog, and so on). You gain the ability to converse with that type of animal as if you were under the effects of speak with animal. You gain the ability to communicate with an additional kind of animal for every 3 oracle levels you have attained.

However the nature oracle's animal companion list is fairly limited.

Of course 1 level of oracle could get you access to Speak with Animals, and then you could continue as a druid or whatever, not having to worry about the limited list.

If you don't want the Oracle's curse, two levels of Shaman of Nature could get the same ability.

Alternatively, as a True Neutral character who qualifies for this feat, you could obtain a Worg which has the ability to speak and understand common and goblin.

Awesome, I definitely like this option.

Buy the circlet of speaking from the Animal Archive. This item allows your animal companion to speak in a single language (usually common). A bit pricey at 4800 gp, but might be what you are looking for. I believe it is legal for PFS if I recall correctly.

Raise the animals intelligence to 3 and give it a rank in linguistics. It can now understand a language of your choice.

And I was wrong, the circlet of speaking is banned. Apologies.

sure, you just talk to it! ... wait... you want it to understand you you mean? oh. sorry.

And I guess you want to be able to understand it when it talks back to you, too?

The Totem Guide animal archetype (which is awesome in many ways) from Animal Archive allows you to converse starting at 6th level.

Several archetypes offer conversing or telepathy as options at the REALLY HIGH (too high for PFS) levels.
