I think animals see things that we dont, i do think that there is something....My Mum died of Cancer 5 years ago, and i we had a Yorkie called Saphron..she was my dog, but when my mum took ill, she would not leave her side...Saphron just knew that there was something going on...
My Mum was in and out of hospital, and she always said that she wanted to die and home...after 11 days in the hospital the Doctor let my Mum come home, to respect her wish and to die here...
If waiting for my mum to die was not hard enough...i had to control this lovely little dog...that went nuts...she knew my mum was dying...she would yelp..which was something that she never did before...she started to bite...she just wanted to lie next to my mum, at one point i banned her out of the room cause she was that bad...about ten mins before my mum died..saph went under the bed, took my mums dressing gown and started to dig, as if she was digging a hole in it....when my mum died, saph came out, calm...it was all very strange....then a few months later, saph died, she just wanted to be with my mum...
I think that they see things that we dont see anyway....i think that dogs understand us more than what we think they do...like if you are ill, how does the dog know? they just do....maybe we have so much to learn from them...
I have never felt saph...but i know for sure that she would come and see me...just because i dont see her....does not mean she dont come....same as my mum....
