"Dream frequency also seems to be related to age where puppies dream more than adult dogs."

"A dog as small as a toy poodle may dream once every 10 minutes, while a dog as large as a mastiff or an Irish wolfhound may spend an hour and a half between dreams."

I think I already dream the dreams that cats dream. At bottom, they're always either nursing or eating mice.

there is one going on under my desk right this second involving some indignant paw jerking and muffled barking sounds, i hope i am not the villain, maybe in the dream i said we would go in the car but then i drove off heartlessly alone, or maybe i ate all the eukanuba biscuits.

You should be ashamed!

It's so innocent, that cartoon.

Yeah, I think dogs at least occasionally dream of tearing squirrels limb from limb.

The critter next to me is making a funny somnambulic 'oompf!' every few minutes. I keep laughing out loud and waking him, and he looks at me with a sort of bleary and accusatory glare. Just like an old man being forced to take meds. Then he resettles, falls back asleep, 'oompfs...'

i bet mine has dreams about me giving him a whole roast chicken, he is a disgrace when it comes to chicken.

Yeah, this guy has the whole 'I ate half my bodyweight in poultry, now look at my ashamed eyes' routine down to a T.

There may not be any smell in the entire world that compares with that of a sleeping dog lying in the sun. Musty, brown, earthy, mellow; I could write an ode.

"Upon First Looking at a Sleeping Dog"

Never forget Ambrose Bierce's definition:

---

DOG, n.
A kind of additional or subsidiary Deity designed to catch the overflow and surplus of the world's worship. This Divine Being in some of his smaller and silkier incarnations takes, in the affection of Woman, the place to which there is no human male aspirant. The Dog is a survival -- an anachronism. He toils not, neither does he spin, yet Solomon in all his glory never lay upon a door-mat all day long, sun-soaked and fly-fed and fat, while his master worked for the means wherewith to purchase the idle wag of the Solomonic tail, seasoned with a look of tolerant recognition.

Haha. This reminds me of strip where Calvin passes a slumbering Hobbes in the hallway and announces that cats should be technically classified as liquids.

I love how dogs get all panicky whenever you start going out, as if they think that every time you leave the house, you're going to the beach to throw the ball around, but sometimes you just forget to bring them with you, so obviously if they position themselves right beside the door, you won't forget them.

My dogs' stomachs are growling away uncomfortably, because they ate three wooden coasters yesterday evening and threw them up in the small hours of the morning (they woke me up with the noise). Now I have no coasters.

Why can't I have nice things?

Why oh why does YouTube not have a clip of Bouncer's dream? Internet, you are rubbish!
