Labrador dog dreaming barking in sleep

This is my Labrador retriever puppy named 'Judd' barking while sleeping / dreaming.

My little girl used to do this. In the last year of her life it was actually the only time she did bark and I imagine that her dreams were the place she could run and bark and play like she had when she was young.

I want an 8 hour version of this haha. Doggie dreams are comforting, and the background shower is soothing too. I'd snooze right next to the pup.

Reminds me of my dog I used to have.
Never wake them up & let them enjoy their dreams in peace.

I'm relieved to see this because i worry about my dogs breathing. If this is normal than that's a good sign.

My 9-year-old lab does this and I so want to know what he is dreaming about. I sure hope it is fun times in his head.

I always sneak towards my dog when she does that to observe. It’s adorable.

Poor thing is clearly having flashbacks to the FedEx convention of '68. Thank you for your service!

My dog does this, too! 😂😂 He also moves his paws. It's so funny and cute to see him doing that

So cute, my dog always does this and barks loud too :)

My black lab Taytom used to do this. Quite frequently and loudly, too. We would always gently wake her up when we started feeling like her dreams weren't so pleasant, and every single time she would smile at us.
Not like your typical doggy smile, I mean an honest-to-god S M I L E. As in the corners of her lips would curve upwards just like ours do.
It was the cutest freakin' thing ever.

It always makes me so happy to see that Dogs can also dream. They also have their wants and what they like.

There is nothing more innocent than a sleeping labrador. Untill he wakes up and smells food on the kitchen counter, then innocent no more.

My chocolate lab does the exact same thing . I guess all labs dream of catching squirrels.

[MrJohnycomelately]

Mine do this, I always wonder what they dream about!

Awww my baby Evee used to do this all the time. This brings back so many good memories watching her sleep and play in her dreams.

My dog used to do this and I would wake him if he seemed too distressed in his dream by stroking his head and his eyes would open a little, look at me and he'd smile and close his eyes again and go back to sleep.
The best thing humans ever did was show compassion to the runt of the wolf litter all those years ago. Now we have so many breeds of dog all over the world who reciprocate our compassion with love.
People say we don't deserve dogs but we do

Every dog has probably done this at one point during sleeping. It makes me feel happy inside when they do this. Dogs are just great aren’t they.

LOL it’s to cute when dogs are dreaming like that.
My dachshund is 18 years old and he still dreams like that. My 13 year old terrier Maltese is the same way, he dreams and will bark.
It’s funny how dogs bark in their sleep and you can hear them. You always want to wonder what their dreaming about.
