This is very familiar to my story. In 1996, my father died. He was in Florida and Hubby & I were in California. Around 11:00 pm (PST), our dog just stood up on our bed and stared at us. We said "outside?" and "bacon? (dog treat)." No response, just kept staring. The next morning, we found out that my father passed, they believe around 2:00 am (EST). Exact same time, very bizarre!
