Do dogs dream if their 8 weeks old and a standard poodle?
Puppies, including 8-week-old standard poodles, do dream. Puppies start dreaming around 2 or 3 weeks of age, and they experience rapid eye movement (REM) sleep just like humans do. During REM sleep, the brain is highly active and puppies likely experience dreams as vivid and emotional experiences, often involving familiar people, animals, and experiences from their waking life.
