Dog Senses: Dogs with ESP?

Many of us have some stories that we could attribute to ESP or Extra Sensory Perception.  I know on several occasions I’ve thought of an old friend and called them only to get a busy signal because they were trying to call me!  Studies on ESP have indicated that ESP depends on a deep emotional tie between the subjects, or in some cases the dog and the dog owner.  Here are several examples of how dogs have displayed some “extra” dog senses or ESP.

You may have heard stories of dogs at the death of their owners. One of the most famous has to do with Gary Cooper’s three dogs. When Gary was nearing death, the dogs were on guard with a group of reporters outside the bedroom. It was noted that at the precise time of Gary’s passing, all three dogs began to howl and were devastated for quite some time.

Another interesting story is that of a family dog in Virginia named Harry, Harry knew something was not right with his family but had only his veterinarian to tell it to. The vet was taking care of the dog while the family was vacationing in Florida. Harry’s distress and howling was so unusual that the vet recorded the date and time.

When Harry’s family returned from their trip, the vet told them about the dog’s mysterious behavior. The family was shocked. At that specified date, and time, they had been endangered by a flash flood.

Modern day science still has a longs ways to go to fully understand ESP and how it works, although there isn’t much denying that it does exist.  If your dog and you are blessed with this gift, enjoy it and try not to think figure it out, just enjoy the companionship and make the most of it.

Dog Senses: Amazing stories of Dog ESP

Dog Senses have always amazed scientists.  There are some truly unbelievable stories of dogs displaying extraordinary dog senses.  Do dogs have ESP? These amazing cases were thoroughly checked out and authenticated.

(1) One famous story of these amazing dog senses is the one about a famous Shepherd named Prince. During the first World War, Prince swam across the English Channel in order to find his owner in one of the many trenches in France. This story became very famous and received international
acclaim.

(2) Another story is of a man who took off in his small privately owned plane from a Georgia airport to travel to New England. The pilot left his dog at home with his family. Unfortunately the plane crashed. The dog’s owner was found by a local farmer. He was found unconscious but alive and was taken to the hospital where he eventually regained his consciousness twelve hours later.

Mean while back home in Georgia, during the time of the crash, the dog disappeared under the house. With a flashlight he could be seen lying motionless, dazed, and unresponsive. He remained in this state the entire time his owner was unconscious. When his owner regained consciousness, the dog came out from under the house,
ate, and appeared perfectly normal.

(3) Lastly is a story of a stray, mixed-breed Dog named Daisy. She charmed herself to a New York City family on vacation at a lake approximately thirty miles from the city. The family befriended her and gave her all the food and love she demanded. After a short time, Daisy delivered four healthy puppies, which also received the love and care of the adopted family.

At the end of the Summer the family had to return to home in New York, they gave Daisy and her puppies to a permanent resident neighbor. They felt that Daisy and her puppies would be better off in the freedom and space that the country offers, rather than their City apartment.

Nearly three weeks after they returned home, they heard a scratching at the apartment door. When they opened it, and there was Daisy, carrying one of the puppies in her mouth. It was a happy reunion to say the least.

Daisy then disappeared the very next day. The family searched everywhere, but found no sign of Daisy. to everyone’s surprise, five days later, Daisy returned with yet another puppy. This continued until she had her four puppies at the home in New York.

Nobody has a clue how Daisy was able to locate the family in an apartment she had never seen or been in. Not to mention in the City of New York. Nobody seems to have an answer, it seems that ESP could be the only answer.  These stories really speak volumes to the ability of a dog’s senses.

Dog Senses: Dog ESP?

Dog senses that are above and beyond the normal sight, smell, taste, and feeling are known as ESP or extrasensory.  This is thought to be observed by dog owners when they sense that their dog is reading their mind or by giving signs that they know what’s coming next.  It is said that ESP can only occur if the dog and dog owner have a strong bond of love.

Research into this extra dog sense has been done at the Duke University Parapsychology Laboratory in North Carolina.  Dr. Rhine let his research team to determine if the ESP phenomenon that exists in humans, also exists in animals.  Similar research has been carried out by two respected Russian scientists: Bkhterev and Durov.

With the word of this dog esp research getting out, Dr. Rhine’s laboratory was flooded with reports of others who have observed this extra sense in their own pets.  Several reported observing this extra sense in their fish and cats but most of the reports were around pet dogs having this extra sense.

Most of the reports of an extra Dog sense involve a homing ability or the ability of the dog to find its family even if several thousand miles separate them.

one inspiring case is that of a mixed-breed dog named Henry. Henry was left with friends in Illinois when his family relocated to Michigan. Several weeks later, Henry enthusiastically greeted his family on a street corner of their new town in Michigan.

The dog made it perfectly clear that he was looking at his family, and the stunned family was convinced that the dog was their beloved pet Henry. But was this dog Henry? The Illinois family, with whom Henry had been left, drove to Michigan to satisfy their doubts. Dr. Rhine and his staff from Duke University flew to Michigan to verify the story. After investigation it was confirmed that this dog was indeed their beloved Henry.

Another well know case around this extra dog sense involves a dog named Bob. This Collie’s “homing” feat gained him fame from all over the world, lots of fan mail, and even a movie. Bob’s adventure started out as a vacation motor trip from Oregon to the East Coast. On the way back to Oregon, Bob’s family realized that their beloved pet was gone.

After the family exhausted all searching efforts, the heartbroken family drove back to Oregon – nearly 2,500 miles. One of Bob’s most charming tricks was to hold up his right front paw when he was hungry. After four months Bob presented himself at the door of his home in Oregon – holding up his right paw.

These examples make it difficult to dispute the existence of these extra Dog senses.
