It is late at night. I am reading an article for my research and Sugar is curled up in the recliner next to me. Suddenly, she begins to move her legs as if she is running. She starts yipping and whimpering. She must be dreaming.
What do dogs dream about? Chasing cats? Chasing rabbits? Running free with no leash and no constraints? Do dogs have nightmares? Is she scared or being chased by the big bad wolf? Should I wake her and save her from the monster? Poor little puppy.
I watch her for a few more minutes and just as I decide to wake her, she stops, heaves a huge sigh, and rolls over. Safe for another day. Hope her next dream is full of wonderful things and no scary monsters. Me too. I haven't had any scary dreams in some long time. I guess if things in your life have been scary, there is no need to make it up in your dreams. These days my dreams can sometimes be confusing, but for the most part they are innocent. Of course, I may be dreaming right now . . .
