A neighbor who lives four homes down from Nancy Guthrie revealed his dogs woke him up on several evenings before her mysterious disappearance on February 1.
In an interview uploaded to YouTube on Monday, March 23, Jeff Lamie told Crime Stories host Nancy Grace, "Preceding the event, there were some evenings where our dogs woke up, which was highly unusual."
"The investigators have asked us about certain evenings and if we'd seen anything unusual," he explained. "It could be coincidence, it could be nothing. I'm not an investigator, I'm a layperson. But the dogs did rouse and I took them out."
Nancy Guthrie's neighbor said his dogs woke him up on several evenings before she went missing.
'Dogs Can Be Hypersensitive'
Nancy Guthrie is believed to have been abducted.
"There's an image of me on camera," Lamie revealed. "I heard nothing. I saw nothing. But ya know, animals, especially dogs can be hypersensitive."
"It hasn't happened since," he continued. "They are usually sound sleepers. [We] take them out before heading to bed. I don't know if they heard something, smelled something."
The dogs woke him around 1 a.m., Lamie said, confirming he turned over his security footage to investigators.
'Someone Knows Something'
The 84-year-old's blood was found outside her Tucson, Ariz., home.
Lamie's intel comes after the 84-year-old's daughter Savannah Guthrie released a new statement thanking the Tucson, Ariz., community for their support.
"We are deeply grateful for the outpouring from neighbors, friends and the people of Tucson. We are all family now," she told News 4 Tucson on March 21.
"We continue to believe it is Tucsonans, and the greater southern Arizona community, that hold the key to finding resolution in this case. Someone knows something," Savannah, 54, went on.

'We Hope People Search Their Memories'
Investigators have collected surveillance footage from Nancy Guthrie's neighbors.
"It’s possible a member of this community has information that they do not even realize is significant. We hope people search their memories, especially around the key timelines of January 31 and the early morning hours of February 1, as well as the late evening of January 11," the NBC anchor continued.
"We desperately ask this community for renewed attention to our mom’s case — please consult camera footage, journal notes, text messages, observations or conversations that in retrospect may hold significance. No detail is too small. It may be the key," she added.
When Was Nancy Guthrie Last Seen?
A masked suspect was seen on her doorbell camera.
The morning show host's mom was reported missing after she failed to show up at a friend's house to watch a livestream of a church service. She was last seen by family the night before.
When authorities arrived at the retiree's upscale Catalina Foothills home that Sunday afternoon, they found blood later confirmed to be hers outside.
FBI later released doorbell camera footage of a masked suspect outside her home around the time she is thought to have vanished. Investigators have repeatedly stated they believe she is the victim of a "targeted kidnapping."
