I believe animals do dream while sleeping. Just like us it does not have to be all the time. I have 4 cats and often while they are sleeping they twitch and move. Also I have seen their whiskers and mouth moving. It is too cute. That is my outlook on the questions. I hope it helps.

Haven't you ever seen a dog sleep? They bark (under their breath, quietly) and run -- their feet move a little. It's very funny. They have been plugged into electrodes (the suction cup type) and they dream a lot. Cats only seem to dream of pouncing on things. Don't know about other animals (can you imagine a mouse hooked up to a EKG?) but they must dream also.

I can vouch for dogs since they are the only animal that ever owned me. They bark, rumble and toss in their sleep and I know they are flying over open fields chasing rabbits. You just have to know them well and then you can imagine what they dream. Do I have quantitative or qualitative data? No. But I know dogs and they dream. @8-)

My dogs do. When they are sleeping sometimes their little legs are going like they are running in their dream. I think they even have bad dreams because I have woken them up because they are whimpering before. Dogs are amazing if watch them and really get to know their personalities.

My little pooch makes growling noises and sometimes barks while she sleeps. I know she's dreaming and it is so damn cute.
