I have two dogs. One is a three year old female-black lab/bulldog mix and the other is a one year old male-black lab/mutt. They are not related. I have noticed that both of them make strange, jerking movements in their sleep and sometimes whine in their sleep. They also appear to have REM. I also have an American Shorthair cat, female-age unknown who exhibits some of the same sleeping behaviors. Is there any scientific proof that aminals dream or any proof that they don't? If they don't, what is causing the strange behaviors when they sleep?
