I posted this in the paranormal forum but wanted to see what you all thought about this:
The other night, my son and I stayed up late, talking and watching tv. Our old dog lay nearby. Suddenly, his ears perked up and he stood up on alert. He took a few steps and cocked his head sideways. Now, this is an old dog who no longer cares about neighborhood cats or opposums or even the occasional door-to-door salesman.
But tonight, he jumped up and looked up the stairs. Then, his head moved as though his gaze were following someone walking around. All the while, his ears and fur were standing up. He was not afraid or aggressive. Just curious. And then, he walked to the front door and then lost interest. I opened the front door and he went out, sniffed around and came back.
I had a dog who once did the same thing when I lived in another house, but he was protective. He growled and barked loudly while "following" someone all the way out the door.
It was clear that my dog "saw" or sensed something. What or who? Later that night, I dreamt about my recently deceased uncle who told me that he "was back." He died but now he was positively gleeful that he somehow managed to "quietly walk back." He thinks he somehow is pulling the wool over someone's eyes by sneaking back to the physical world. I know he is concerned about his wife of over 50 years.
My daughter, whom he cared about, sleeps upstairs and I feel that he peeked in on her.
What do you think about this?
