Barking in sleep

Okay can anyone tell me why dogs bark in their sleep?

Jasper has started doing it quite a lot lately and he's never done it before. At first i just thought nothing of it but yesterday, last night and again today he's done it everytime he's gone to sleep

Cassy does it every day not so much a bark but a noise that sounds like oof, oof and her whole body shakes sometimes I can see her eyes moving and lots of muscle twitching. The vet told me she was most probably dreaming and that it wasnt anything to worry about.

Sorry I couldnt be more help.

He hasn't done that. It's real bark.

I know what u mean about the eye's rolling and the muscle twitching, Tam used to do it all the time. It got quiet scary, even Jas would move away from her

They're dreaming :smt015 All of mine do it too

yeah definitly dreaming...If it looks like Keena is having a bad dream I just put my hand on her gently to calm her. But it was cute the other day, I knew she was having a happy dream because she started wagging her tail hard...lol...so I let her carry on with that one!

The funniest are the running dreams where all their legs go like crazy

Staffy regarding crossposting (there was a section about this in the off chat page).

The odd thing is somebody has posted a message on the bull ring about their dog doing this in their sleep if it has eaten cheese. It was posted like 5 mins ago and after I replied I thought hang on......

Perhaps it is just a coincedence...

That is strange.

My Jazzi does that........

Tam did that once. It was sooooo funny. So long as it is only him dreaming then. I do worry about him especailly now after everything.

Maybe I'm just noticing things more now that he's on his own again.

Thanx guy's
