Thus, you're sat on the couch, with a glass of something ideal to taste and a lumps of your number one chocolate to soften in your mouth. You're relaxing as is your canine, spread out next you and resting calmly.

Out of nowhere, your canine lets out a woof, his legs begin jerking, he begins breathing harder and his tail begins pounding. Is it safe to say that he is dreaming? Indeed, he is.

Truly? How might we be certain? Maybe our canines can let us know they dreaming about when they awaken. Goodness, if by some stroke of good luck they would be able.

The proof we have, however, is logical.

WHAT THE RESEARCH SAYS.
Logical investigations show that canines' cerebrums are like our own. Indeed, there are many, numerous distinctions however, on a primary level, they're very similar. What's more, along these lines, almost certainly, canines can and do dream.

Scientists utilizing EEGs (electroencephalograms) have found that people and canines rest the same.

Like us, canines enter a 'profound rest' stage, while their breathing turns out to be more unpredictable and they have fast eye development (REM).

Like us, it's during REM that dogs dreaming occurs. So that is the point at which we're probably going to hear them give a little bark or see their legs begin jerking.

What's more, once more, similar to us, it's not unexpected, regular and smart for a canine to dream - regardless of whether it shock you.

A few DOGS DREAM MORE THAN OTHERS
Presently, the researchers don't have any idea why, yet more modest canines will quite often have a greater number of dreams than greater canines.

So a little 'un, like a Chihuahua, could have another fantasy at regular intervals or thereabouts, while a Golden Retriever's fantasies will change at regular intervals.

WHAT ARE DOGS' SWEET DREAMS MADE OF?
Indeed, we won't ever be aware without a doubt since they can't tell us. In any case, fundamentally, it's accepted canines long for canine stuff, the manner in which we long for human stuff.

The completely loosened up resting little guy that sucks its paw in its rest is presumably returning to its initial, blissful days, when it was taken care of by its mom.

The sound snoozing canine that has all the earmarks of being scrambling in its rest could well fantasy about pursuing a ball - or a feline.

A resting canine licking its lips could be returning to that especially delicious Field and Trial it had for supper!

IT'S A NIGHTMARE!
However, in the event that canines have wonderful dreams, they have terrible dreams, as well, correct?

Their bad dreams won't be about charge requests, contract installments, driving, dental specialists, anxiety toward flying, out of nowhere being exposed in the workplace… We should rest assured.

Yet, we can speculate about what they may be about… The feline pursuing them, their supper vanishing before they've eaten it, their #1 bite toy biting them…

Leave well enough alone…
On the off chance that you impede your canine's rest, they could awaken with a trepidation and respond protectively.

Thus, whatever your canine's longing for, the specialists' recommendation is to leave them be.

Like us, canines need continuous rest for good psychological well-being.
