Anyone who has watched their pets dream have no doubt wondered what they were dreaming and finally a Harvard psychologist is offering an answer...sort of. The study showed most animals have similar sleep patterns to humans with light,deep and REM stages and though there is no way to prove it she thinks it is likely your pets dream of you since you occupy most of their waking hours which makes it important to make their time with you pleasant. They could also be dreaming of running with other dog friends when their paws twitch and they let out little dream barks. The only word of caution is to not wake them if they seem to be having a bad dream as they may lash out before they are fully awake.
