What Do Dogs Dream Of? šŸ¶šŸ’¤

The infinite in a limited mind

Not so different… ā™¾ļø

When a dog’s squeaking, letting out little noises all over the place — thrashing their paws — you know they must be dreaming.

You hear similar kinds of sounds as they make in life. A bark here, a growl there… a whine once in a while.

Our human brain wonders what are they’re really dreaming about, though. How complex can a dog dream really be?

There might be an element of running for food, of chasing rabbits and rodents. There might be an element of trying to hide something before it brings unwanted attention…. Maybe then they put all this effort into filling up the hole before it can be seen.

But is there more we don’t even know about? Battling moose… saving a damsel in distress?

Guess until we have a way to see from their eyes… we’ll never know for sure. How exciting!
