Approved answer
Do Dogs Experience Dreams?
Indeed, dogs are capable of dreaming. Research has shown that the same regions of the brain that are activated in humans during dreaming are also activated in dogs. Although dogs are quite different from us, they experience a similar REM sleep phase, allowing for deep rest. You might have seen your dog twitching in their sleep and wondered if they were having dreams, and it turns out, they very well might be!
