i had a dream about a very tall and skinny black and white dog but, on its back and neck there was brown fur. I was watching the dog and kept on yelling and pointing saying “you arent him you dastardly beast!!” The dog was very clumsy, like a puppy. He also kept on trying to bite my hand, no idea why though. i have a puppy of my own that’s a brown bluenose pitbull but, this dog in my dream didn’t look one thing like him at a l l but, everyone kept on saying my dogs name towards this dream dog. In this dream there was another dog very small but big dog. short legs but, very chubby. it was black and white too. a white head and black body. the dog was very fast and happy but, wouldn’t look or been pay me any attention! i kept on trying to get him while the other dog was jumping on me and biting me all energetic like. i have no idea what this means and I’m very very confused.
I found two blue dogs, I picked up one of these dogs and rubbed his fur. Both were beautiful, their color showed vividly against their color beneath. One was a male, the other female. I could not decide which one I wanted to take home with me. But, the one I held was the most beautiful.
in my dream i only remember seeing a wight small dog it might have been on grass or i was in a jungle but a small dog mean someone wants my attention and i,m trying to figure out who it is. It can also mean i want to protect someone but i dont know who i am trying to protect
Hey y’all, I wanted to share my dream with ya. So basically I saw a white dog, which was friendly to me, it could do some tricks and stuff… But the other dog was my own dog…I had a German Shepherd and I dreamt of it, so I saw him crying and being wet while walking in to the kitchen to hug my mother…he came over me to hug him but when I hugged him a lot he bites my back…when I tried to stop him (I was being calm) he started growling…thats when I woke up in some numb back pain. That’s my dream everyone
Hi.i had a dream last night about a shepherd dog.it was just cool and was looking at me .and it was very big .what is the meaning of it please
I had a dream of 2 red dogs no fur, they seemed angry at me and they wanted to get me out I had no escape there was a fence with those spikes and I had no use but to jump it to escape, I jumped it and even though I got hurt and they scratched my back I jumped it. After that I fought back I grabbed the dog by the face and pushed it away as well as the other one I threw rocks just to scare it and they calmed down and left.
I dont have dreams I have nightmares. My dream was…
Riding on an air plane super strong wind and black sky sucked the plane to the ground the top came off on impact, we were sitting in rows of boxes, like railcar boxes with no tops. (I know how real planes are) I’ve flown many times.) Some people came in to select some people, I was grateful my children and I weren’t chosen. It seemed off. Then a big grey tall skinny dog ran out with green eyes that glowed, he grabbed my hand and was trying to rip me apart because of my scent, his master called to him from across the plane and he ran off. He was stronger than a normal pet dog. Then the people began rolling out the train cars one by one. I was scared of where they were taking us, I was hopeful that they were just boarding us onto a plane that was intact to finish the flight. But when we got to where they took is it was dusty in the air, they began enclosing the top of our train cars with cheap thin metal, a man beside me said that it looked like he seen a giant trash compactor. I was so afraid that at that point that they were going to compact my whole train car with all of us in it. My children and I and all the other people I didnt know. I woke up right then I couldn’t take it anymore. I was shaking really bad when I woke up and went and hugged my children. No idea what this dream means ,but its the 2nd horrible nightmare I have had this week. (I dont watch scary movies) I used to dream about demons alot. I’m still wondering if the dog was a demon. He was so so strong and not a human like dog like our pet dogs are.( I have a dog). That dog was evil.
Dreamt I was walking down a side walk, a black Great Dane approached, he wrapped his hind legs around my legs, his front legs around my shoulders and put his open mouth on my head. He did not hurt me, but he refused no matter how much I tried to let go
I had a strange dream, my german shepard bubba, came to me in a dream last night. He was smiling his wonderful smile and there was a man idk in the dream, but I was telling him that he should get a big dog like bubba for protection of his property, because Bubba was the best kind of dog. He would protect you form everything. He is such a sweet soul. Then I woke up.
After starting to meditate I felt a large dog lay between my legs I wanted to close them and it wouldn’t move I struggled and struggled but I got it off and it went down stairs I thought it was my own dog but my partner awoke who heard me struggle and said our dog was lead beside him and was looking very scared …
I feel it was a warning to my partner to treat me better as he is not doing a 100%
I will take this as a good sign as I’ve been told of 2 wolves by my side in spirit before but in my minds eye I saw a big black dog I felt no fear so I will take only positive omens from it
I wonder what else will appear to.warn him off mistreating me ..🤣😉😇
