In a lot of horror movies and paranormal TV shows, children
and dogs seem to sense spirits and demons when no one else can see them or know
about their presence. I can speculate as to why these simple creatures are psychic,
and my guess would be that they are presumed innocent and without baggage.
In any case, I have been noticing that Max, our dog, is
sometimes, not too often, found sitting in the dining room staring at the wall.
He is looking at a space between the bar and the wall, just
a blank wall. He seems interested and is staying in place. My wife has noticed
this as well. I’m not saying he’s seeing things but, he is looking at things I
do not see.
In looking to debunk this problem, I did notice the wall has
an air intake for the furnace, so it is possible that voices of my children
travel through the ductwork, even though I can’t here them, but dogs hear very
well. This is at least an explanation. I haven’t tested the theory as I haven’t
been paying attention to his actions too often.
My hope is that it’s just a fluke, or a little bit of sound traveling through the house. In a few weeks when my daughters move back to Toronto, I will see if he stays in place. At that point I think I need a ghost hunter.
