Why does my dog snore and kick her legs while she is sleeping??

Answer 1

Dogs snore for much the same reason as people. But many dogs have shorter snouts, and are more prone to snore because of the shape of their nasal cavity. As for kicking her legs, that's just part of dreaming. People do that, too. Maybe she's dreaming about chasing something or jumping.

Answer 2

Dogs snore for the same reason that people do--some do and some dont. My male Rotty snores and it sounds like contentment to me. The kicking legs is probably the dog having a dream. Nothing to worry about.

Answer 3

Well, I would say it is restless leg syndrome and that she has a breathing problem. The fact is dogs are just like humans. They snore and most of the time if they are moving their legs they are dreaming about running and chasing squirrels or just playing.

Answer 4

I had a Beagle that snored...vet said because the breeders are breeding the dogs to have shorter snouts/noses which makes her 'palette' (top of her mouth) smaller too which causes the snoring. I have dogs that kick their legs when they sleep, whine or even bark...and i'm sure they are chasing something in their sleep. Shoot, I talk and laugh in my sleep and wake myself up sometimes!
