Okay...I'm convinced he's barking at ghosts! Topher is a strange little one when it comes to barking at things....he barks very little, thank heavens, but sometimes when he does bark, I'm convinced he sees things that I don't!! Things he barks at that I understand (but it took me a while :rolleyes: ): a strange item on the ottoman/coffeetable used to upset him..lol...he's over that now, thank heavens. the suitcase on the bedroom floor...he doesn't like the suitcase for some reason and he won't relax until I move it to another room. people at the door...he barks a couple of times, then stops Those are the ones I now understand....BUT... when all is quiet in the house at night, and I'm in the livingroom on the computer, in the dark, he'll stare at one side of the room and bark. I've picked him up and brought him over to the area he's barking at and he gets so upset...it's like he's afraid. I can't for the life of me figure out what he sees...it's freaked me out a couple of times...especially since my son said that perhaps he's seeing something we don't..lol...now I'm not so sure! I was thinking it might be shadows, but it's just he and I alone in the dark room, so that's ruled out. Oh...this is hilarious...one time a couple of weeks ago, my 16 year old daughter was sitting at the ottoman, on the floor, reading a magazine. She had her legs folded underneath her bum. Topher was barking and barking at her and we couldn't figure out what he was upset at...it took me the longest time to figure out that he couldn't see her legs!! He stopped barking as soon as we showed him that she still had them..lol... Anyway....does your yorkie bark at things you can't see?? Or is this just a Topher thing?:confused: |
things like that have happened here a few times too. sometimes I do think they are seeing ghost too. LOL just talk to them and if they answer back .......... hold on to the cute yorkies. |
Well yes and no.....although sometimes it is something we can SEE if you look long enough....anything out of place...a ball in the yard, someone wearing a hat that usually doesn't....BUGS IN THE HOUSE...that takes quite a bit of looking. So far this week, I have found 1 spider and a misquito looking thing. Ramsey is a great defender against bugs. :rolleyes: I have found she isn't really "barking at nothing"...I just have to look closely. ;) |

I am kidding..... Although as a child when scared....I would've considered handing my little brother over to the boogeyman. ;) |
I Believe! I do believe that they see spirits. My baby Bentley use to bark and bark at the corner of the room and he'd get so upset...I am convinced that he could see my dad who recently passed away....now daddy is taking care of Bentley until we meet again. My brother & his wife have a maltese who does the same thing...they are convinced of the same thing I am. |
Ooooh, that's creepy, but I do believe that they can see things we can't! But don't worry, I am sure Topher has it under control!! :p |
Frodo's begun doing a weird growling thing at night... sometimes, in the middle of the night, he'll move to the edge of my bed and look at a corner and begin growling. No clue why, I've tried and tried to figure it out but there's no window over there and nothing really to see. I just figured he's making sure I'm protected! |

If Ramsey is barking at either of my parents...that's ok...and personally I wanna see them too. :) |
This is so bizarre!! I was just talking to my co-worker about my Sebastian seeing things. He gets right at the end of my bed and bark or growl at nothing!! He doesn't do it all the time but when he does do it, it freaks the crap out of me. I have tried to look very hard to see if it may be something small like a bug or something. If it is a spirit, I hope it's a friendly one like my grandmother or my uncle. But one thing I have noticed that he does not like is when the computer is on and the screensaver pops up. My screensaver has different pictures that switch back and forth. He goes mad when my screensaver comes on!! I don't understand it. |
I beleive they see things we don't. Mine do it too. Although I've seen movement out of the corner of my eye many times since we bought this house a year ago. My dogs growl and bark at it (whatever it may be) and come close to me usually putting a paw on my leg to make sure I know they are protecting me. Once I had goosebumps for no reason and a cold chill go up my spine then the dogs started growling and barking at something. I'm convinced my house is haunted! I'm glad I have so many babies to protect me!:aimeeyork |
It has always scared me too! I could write a book. |
Well, it sounds like I'm not alone in this!! How I wish I could see what Topher sees...I'd probably bark, too! lol |
Maybe it's not what they are seeing but instead what they are hearing. Is it possible they are hearing something outside or in the walls (don't want to freak anyone out but like mice)? Especially if they growl or bark at night facing a wall or corner. I would think their hearing is much more keen then their eyesight. |
all my dogs do that too. Holly in the middle of the night will just jump up and start barking and runs into the hallway. I believe they see ghosts. Animals have a sixth sense and since their senses are so keen I think they feel a present of something. Im glad Im not the only one whole thinks that now:) |
Yes, there have been times that my little Raisin would bark at something by the stairs, always thought maybe it was Shaddow whom passed away. Now Raisin and Shaddow are gone, and Dennis sometimes barks and stares at that same spot! Does make you wonder. I have always felt that animals can feel or sense things that we cannot. When I was a kid I was playing with a Ouiji Board in my upstairs bedroom with a friend. My cat frantically cried, pushing his feet under the closed door and behaved in a manner that suggested he was quite frantic! I decided to let him in just to see what he would do, and whenever we put our hand on the board to play he would grab our shirtsleeves and pull us away. He also appeared to see things, in the same way that all my little yorkies have by my stairs. |
