I like the one about dogs dreaming. I’d always thought that my dog was dreaming about finally catching that $&(@!! Squirrel. Your article on dog dreams proves me correct, at least in part!

“dogs dream doggy things,” Coren said. “So, pointers will point at dream birds, and Dobermans will chase dream burglars. The dream pattern in dogs seems to be very similar to the dream pattern in humans.”

For unknown reasons, the size of the dog may determine the size of the dream. Smaller dogs have more frequent but shorter dream periods, Cohen said, while large dogs have less frequent but longer dreams.”
