When Bassett did pass on, I did know it was coming. I had even said to a friend a couple weeks before, "I just don't think she's going to live much longer." There was no reason for me to feel this way at that time, because she was healthy, happy, playing, eating, etc.. but I just knew. So I made sure to pay extra attention to her, and I told her I loved her every day.

I think that when the connection is very strong, it is possible. But use this feeling for the good; cherish your time with Duke and if you turn out to be wrong, bonus. If not, you know that you have make this time with him the most special
