Dogs purr and twitch while sleeping. Do you want to wake them up?

Is it a nightmare? Do you want to wake up?

Dogs at home always have some strange movements when they sleep, such as kicking and purring for different durations. Is it a dream?

-Do dogs dream?

Yes, when dogs sleep, deep sleep and shallow sleep alternate. After entering a deep sleep, dogs will have violent dreams, constantly flapping their wings, screaming, barking and even twitching.

When they dream, their brain waves look very similar to human brain waves. After falling asleep, people will quickly fall into a deep sleep, gradually deepen and reach a deep sleep state. It takes an average-sized dog 20 minutes to enter a light sleep state. During deep sleep, dogs will have the most violent dreams, which will cause their bodies to twitch, their paws to shake, scream and even bark.

Share a particularly complicated case, where three factors, such as disease and environmental psychological shadow, are mixed together, making it particularly painful for dogs to sleep.

A kind-hearted man rescued a stray dog nearby, only to find that it would bark in its sleep every time, accompanied by the same whining as "killing the dog". At this time, people used to comfort it, but it cried louder, and the strange behavior was confusing!

After examination, the pet doctor found that it was actually the interaction of disease, environment and psychological shadow. The sequela of the dog's illness has caused some problems in the central nervous system. Pain makes it tremble from time to time when walking, and it can't sleep well.

There are two 7 cm long wounds on it, which are suspected to have been hurt. In addition, people came and went in the rest place before, worried about getting hurt again, and I couldn't sleep well under the accumulation of long-term nerve pressure. After the treatment, it was arranged to live in a quiet carriage, where it really fell asleep and rested for the first time.

Watching dogs dream, sometimes they run happily, and sometimes they are particularly nervous. I wonder what he dreamed.
