Do you think it's a ghost?

[sneri13]

Ok I decided to join in. Yes I do believe animals are very sensitive to this, and I have had several experiences personally with ghosts. My husbands sister dies from cancer when she was seventeen. I have never met her. I only saw pictures of her when she was very little becuase all the photos of her were destroyed in a house fire after she died. My husband never discussed her life when she was ill. Only when they were young. When my daughter was only 1 month old she was crying in her crib in the middle of the night. I was still partially alseep when my husband asked if I was getting up. I told him that his sister had just come in the room and told me she just checked on my daughter DeborahAnne who is named after her and that she was alright and went back to sleep. After saying this we were both awake. Ok so you can say I was dreaming this. The thing is my husband who doesn't believe this stuff and thinks I am nuts was shocked when I decribed exactly what his sister was wearing to a T. He told me that it was her favorite outfit and was buried in it.

As far as the dogs go. I have alot of antiques in my house. The fainting couch in my living room is from the 1880's and has original fabric. Mac & Mellie will at times both sit their and bark and go nuts at the couch. I also have a painting from the same time period. Mac will just sit and bark at the wall that the picture is on. I have read that the spirit can be attached to the objects they were associated with.

I have alot more encounters but now you can think I'm nuts too!

Well...she turns around to scold him, and tell him to go back outside...and as she turns...its this black dog...who is NOT her laborador...who then just fades away into nothingness. She freaks out...screams for her partner...who thinks she's nuts of course. Well....two week later...it appears in the morning to her partner...just standing by the bed in the morning...breathing on her. Since that time...they have seen not only the dog...but some kind of humanlike figure...that just fades in and out at times. They said they've gotten used to it...and just live with it. If I didn't know these two no-nonsense cops personally...I'd say they were making it up. But I believe them...which is why we always meet in a restaurant to get together....chuckling...

They've gotten "use" to it? HECK NO! I would have left!

Susan, would that painting that you're talking about be the one that has that white kind of glow in it? I think there's a woman in the picture? When I watched DeborahAnne that picture gave me the creeps.

The reason I ask is because sometimes I notice dogs just bark at thin air, sometimes for no reason. I've heard that animals have a sixth sense. What do you guys think? I know it's a creepy thought but I really think Coco can see or feel some kind of presence. She NEVER really barks, and occasionally out of nowhere, with no other noise in the background, she'll just turn around look, upwards and bark and growl. There's nothing there, there's no other noise and no one else other than me and her sometimes. Give me your thoughts.

Yes I sure think they see more then what we think.
The reason I say that is cause when Kloey was alive, she went under my bed and she barked and barked for over a hour, I took the flash light and looked and saw nothing, she continued to bark at nothing, so we took her for a car ride to get her to calm down, we were gone maybe a half an hour and she never barked once wheile we were gone, as soon as we got back she went right back under the bed and began to bark again, she finally stopped and never did it again.
RIP Kloey
