Subject: Presence of dogs in a haunted building

I've been to the Eastern State Penitentiary twice. On both occasions I was part of a group of people who raise Seeing Eye puppies. When I was walking my dogs I felt absolutely indifferent about my surroundings. I was expecting to feel on edge because of the stories about this place but I sensed nothing.

At one point I had to climb over a pile of wood and rocks and I gave my German Shepherd's leash to someone else to hold. As soon as I let go of the leash I felt very cold. I thought it was just a draft and proceeded to step over the rocks and I suddenly felt as though something was pushing me from behind and I heard my dog growl. I put my hand on the wall next to me to hold myself up but the rough stone wall felt like ice and just as slippery. I started falling forward and at that instant my dog ran in front of me and I fell on top of her.

As soon as I came in contact with her everything was back to normal. I no longer felt cold. I used the wall to help pick myself up and it was not at all slippery. My dog was staring off in front of us, the hair on her back was up and she kept growling. It seemed like a wind was going down the corridor, then a whooshing noise came as it got to the end, went around a corner and was gone. When the noise was gone my dog looked at me and became her happy self again.

Does the presence of dogs have an affect on hauntings? Do would-be haunter-ers fear them and stay away from them and people who are with them? I'd really like to know if anyone else has had an experience like this. Thanks for reading!
