Don't UnderEstimate the Predictions of a Little Dog

Anybody believe dogs can predict the future?  My little doggie Gloriebelle,

has been acting very strange since Sunday night.  She stopped eating, which is her favorite pastime.  She insisted on hiding as far back in the closet as she could get.  She was so nervous that she shook and vibrated like a little jackhammer.  What the heck could be wrong with  her.  I checked all her legs to be sure nothing was broke or swollen.  I even watched her when she pp'd to see if there was any blood in it.  Something physical?  Doesn't seem to be.  Now this went on from Sunday night into Monday and  Tuesday.  Last night we had lots of rain and a thunderstorm. The lightening and thunder lasted for about one half hour.  I heard it in my sleep and thought "I should get up and console the little doggie. 

Well, when I got up this morning at 5 AM to get ready for work.....storm over, and Gloriebelle sitting on her spot on the couch, good as new.

I think she knew a storm was coming way back on Sunday night.  Or she is paying more attention to the Weather Channel than I knew.

  1. Animals are so sensitive to changes in the atmosphere that they pick up on things.  Too bad our weather forcasters aren't as clued in...LOL.

  3. If you've read my Furr Babies Journal...you know Angel is a "weather dog", sounds like Gloriebelle may be one too.
    Angel will start anwhere from 3 days to several hrs prior bad weather, she starts shaking all over, walking in circles, staring at the ceiling, whining, trys to find a place to hide. When she starts this I know that severe weather will soon be here.
    It must be terrifying for our furrs, but it gives us time to prepare.
