Animal studies have shown that dogs (and all animals who experience REM sleep) do, in fact, dream. Following the electrical readings from various areas of the brain, it’s been shown that they often (as do people) dream of the things they experience when they are awake.

Creature Thoughts, January 2018: Our Twilight Pets
Our Twilight Pets Is your older dog pacing, whining, and anxious without reason? Has your senior cat become restless at night, crying and calling out? Has your old pet’s appetite changed lately: either always hungry or refusing favorite foods? Does she spend more time sleeping or isolating herself from her family, and is no longer…

Those blessings and challenges include everything which makes that species unique, including instincts, genetic behavior patterns, and physical attributes and problems.
Creature Thoughts: Sept 2017, The Vanishing Cat
We’ve all been there, we cat owners. Even in non-emergency situations, such as a simple vet check-up, we have everything set to go, get the carrier out, and suddenly have no cat.
Creature Thoughts, July/Aug 2017
One thing I, and many others, believe, is that emotion is an energizing force. It gives power to our thoughts. It is the turbo-boost that allows the physical manifestation of our imagination to take place.
