Most dog owners have wondered what their pet is dreaming about at one time or another - especially when they mimic running or let out a tiny bark in their sleep. But thankfully for them, an expert at the University of British Columbia has come up with an answer, claiming it's different for every dog breed.
According to Stanley Coren, a professor emeritus of psychology, dogs don't only dream but they can also manipulate their dreams in a similar way, if not the same way, humans can. Mr Coren suggests dogs undertake breed-specific activities in their dreams, with Dobermans most likely chasing away danger, while golden retrievers search for dream snacks or being cuddled by their owner.
