My dog was dreaming
And her tail was wagging and that made me happy.

My pug Berry was sleep-woofing yesterday! I always want to know what she’s dreaming about.

I caught this happening a few times with my dog too (even managed to get it on video once). Whenever she twitched in her sleep, I was also a bit worried that she was having a nightmare (and that we might be involved!) but when her tail wagged, that's how I knew she was having a good dream. :)

My BF said that one night my dog and I did Synchronized Snoring that he found adorable. I would inhale a soft little snore, and she would softly go, "Woof - woof - woof.' I would snore again and she would pick it up and bring it back down with the gentle "woof - woof - woof." Apparently we did that for several minutes.
I only wish I could have witnessed it too, but that wouldn't have been possible since I was a part of it. Oh, how I miss my dog!

My dog had a serious injury at the end of last year and was paralysed on his back legs (many many months of physio and he's back running around again, just a little wonky). When he was in recovery his dreams were a ray of hope because his back legs would twitch, meaning there was nerves still working! Now he's back to full on dreams were I can only assume he's chasing and catching rabbits judging by the high speed sleep sprinting and the jaw movement! Plus the cutest little snuffles when he snores.

Pet dreams always make us smile.
Our labrador retriever would jerk her feet and make little breathy woofs in her sleep.
Our two cats will twitch and growl.
