Science concludes: Dogs sleep like dreams

In fact, dogs or other mammals have dreams, and the things they dream about are just as lively as humans.

If we look at our dog, we must all have noticed that when they sleep they often startle, wagging their tails and moaning like they are dreaming.

Scientists have proved that the actual dog sleeps like a human. And they can also dream about a day that they both experience just like ourselves.

Of course they will only dream about what is close to them, like we will dream about the daily movies, stories, activities we just went through. With dogs, they will dream of a good bone about what they have just played today.

The actual dog also sleeps like a human.

For a medium-sized dog, within the first 20 minutes they will fall asleep with regular breathing, but then the eyes will move inside the closed eyelid and the breath becomes erratic. , it was at this time that they entered the dream.

Scientists point out that dogs of smaller sizes dream more often but often short dreams and big dogs dream less but have rather long dreams. Small dogs also have more time to fall asleep than large dogs.

Dr. Nicholas Dodman, an animal behavioral researcher, argues: "It can be concluded that dogs also sleep like humans because their brain activity is similar to how the brain works. people in sleep ".

There have been more studies of dreams done on other mammals to find out if all types of mammals are dreaming or only dogs have this ability.

Small dogs have more time to fall asleep than large dogs.

"People often wonder if our dogs will dream like a living person, do they dream of launching a cat like what they like to do every day? ? " Dodman said.

"I think, from the discussions above, this is possible. Although we have not really understood the true function of that dream, is it the process of signing information? Is the memory in the head normal like in humans? "

Dr. Stanley Coren, emeritus professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia, said: "Based on the structure and activity of the brain, we have reason to believe that most mammals dream. ".

"Cats also dream and horses dream, but the nature of their dreams and cycles is completely different."

Most mammals have dreams.

Until now, many people still believe that dreams are only in people when we are thinking creatures, have developed brains and superior cognitive abilities.

With the discovery of dreams in animals, scientists expect in the future we can learn more about the mysteries of the brain.
