A kind dog is an ambiguous symbol for a woman. It can symbolize a friend, relative or sexual partner, or it can indicate the presence of a hypocritical, unreliable person in one’s close circle.
To correctly decipher a dream in which an affectionate pet appears, you need to remember the plot details: what the animal looked like, how it behaved, what breed it belonged to.
Why do you dream about a dog: in a dream it is kind to a woman - general interpretation
A kind, affectionate, friendly dog is a prediction of a new pleasant acquaintance, which can become the beginning of a love relationship.
If a dog guards and protects the dreamer in a dream, then in real life you can rely on the protection of higher powers, on the benevolence of fortune. A woman in a dream feeds an affectionate, friendly pet - in reality she is considered a serious, responsible person, treated with respect and trust.
Expert opinion
Svetlana Kravchenko
Esotericist
For a business woman, a dream in which a kind dog appears promises to receive a large income. The larger the four-legged friend in a dream, the more money you can put in your wallet.
For a family woman, a puppy is a symbol of a child. If the dreamer cuddles the dog, then in reality she is too protective of the children. If you walk with a pet, you decide the child’s future without taking into account his opinion. And if he hunts with a dog, he prefers a free and rich sex life and does not strive to start a family.
A friendly dog suddenly began to get angry - a romantic relationship is developing with obstacles, but in the future everything will be fine. The cute, gentle pet suddenly bared its teeth and began to growl - surrounded by the dreamer there is a hypocritical, insidious person pretending to be a friend. This personality is capable of striking at the most unexpected moment, so you must not let your guard down.
If a kind dog looks sick, exhausted, dirty, then soon friendship will be offered by a person from whom this could not be expected. The dog, which was sad at first, but perked up after communicating with the dreamer, suggests that difficulties should not be feared.
The dog is petting
For a woman in a dream, a caressing dog is a symbol of sincere friendships and love relationships, tender and deep feelings, and romance. Often a dream promises victory in amorous affairs; a man will be seriously interested in the dreamer.
An unmarried girl dreams of her beloved guy's dog fawning over her - in reality, her lover does not experience sincere feelings, he is only interested in sexual relationships without obligations, although he skillfully hides his true desires under the guise of a faithful and devoted gentleman. You should think about whether this relationship is worth developing and what it will lead to in the future.
An unfamiliar dog fawns over a woman in a dream - in real life there is an acute lack of warmth and tenderness. Often a dream warns of unpleasant events associated with misunderstandings, mutual insults and reproaches.
Good dog on a chain
A favorable dream is in which a woman sees a kind, friendly dog sitting on a chain. Your future life will be prosperous and stable; you should not be afraid of any dangers.
According to Miller's dream book, a kind dog on a chain is a harbinger of good luck.
The dreamer's actions
When deciphering a dream, a woman should take into account her behavior and attitude towards the dog she sees:
- Caressing and stroking a kind animal - in reality you want to make a certain person your friend.
- Treating someone with a delicacy means sincere gratitude for a great service.
- Playing with a pet means receiving a gift in return for the favor. For an unmarried girl, the dream promises a quick entry into a marriage that will turn out to be prosperous and happy.
- Entertaining an animal means the arrival of relatives.
- Caring for a dog means unsuccessful development of affairs, defeat in competition.
- Punishing a pet for pampering means marriage with a positive and kind man.
Lots of good dogs
According to Miller's dream book, there are many non-aggressive dogs - people actively gossip about the dreamer. The dream suggests that gossipers need to be immediately reined in before the rumors being spread get out of control.
According to Aesop, the dream is interpreted differently: the dreamer has lost her vigilance, which is why she risks getting into an unpleasant situation.
A woman in love should pay attention to the behavior of dogs in their sleep. The way the animals behaved is how the loved one actually treats her.
An unmarried girl in a dream is accompanied by two kind dogs - in real life she has many gentlemen. But guys are shy and have difficulty courting, so the girl will have to take the initiative into her own hands.
I dreamed of a pair of kind dogs of a dark color - you should be careful when communicating with loved ones. Perhaps there are intriguers around.
Dreaming about your own pet
If a woman sees in a dream her pet, which exists in reality, then such a dream promises pleasant troubles.
Sometimes a dream does not have much meaning, but is a reflection of a woman’s emotional state and her contact with her pet during the day. Perhaps the dreamer is lonely, suffers from a lack of warm friendly communication, and needs moral support, which no one provides her.
A dream in which a four-legged friend asks to be held in your arms or on your knees means either that the dreamer in reality does not care about the animal properly, or that she strives to help the people around her and show care.
Less often, a dream signals that there is a person around who needs help and moral support. Or maybe the night vision is due to the fact that in reality the dog jumped onto the bed and is trying to wake up its owner.
To see your own dog fawning over a stranger in a dream means being jealous and envying in reality. There is a high probability of betrayal from loved ones. Perhaps a woman experiences black envy of a person who is happier in family and friendly relationships.
Most likely, envy is caused by the fact that the dreamer has been suffering for a long time from a lack of spiritual warmth and needs love that no one can give her.
A girl sees in a dream how a stranger takes a pet, and the dog willingly leaves with him, shows friendliness to the stranger - in reality, with her whims and discontent, she will anger and offend her beloved guy.
Aesop's Dream Book
From this collection of interpretations you can find out why a man dreams of a kind dog - the compilers propose to associate the image of the dog with the dreamer’s friends. His behavior reflects the mood and actions of people close to him. If a dog is affectionate, his behavior obviously proves devotion; if the animal is ready to protect a person, one of his friends will do just that in the near future. But an attacking animal barking or trying to bite is a signal of betrayal and intrigue on the part of those whom the person trusts. Probably someone close to you is jealous of the person and is ready to spread rumors about him, and recent successes have become “salt in the wound.”
If the dream shows several animals at once conflicting over food, in the near future you will have to meet with a greedy person who is characterized by stinginess. The dreamer has probably known him for a long time, but did not know about this personality trait before. The dream warns against the manifestation of greed.
If in a vision a dog dies because it was bitten by a snake, the reptile should be associated with the dreamer. The vision indicates a lack of ability to appreciate loved ones. A person is ready to commit betrayal, which in the future will result in considerable difficulties and will more than once cause regret for what he has done.
Dreaming of a pet of a friend or stranger
I dreamed of a kind, friendly dog, whose owner is known in reality - soon this person will ask the dreamer for help. He is in dire need of communication and moral support. You should not refuse this person, otherwise your conscience will be uneasy.
If you dream of a dog that belongs to a stranger, in reality the girl will communicate with a married friend in order to get help from her husband.
If in a dream it is known for sure that the dog’s owner is single, then in reality the girl hides her feelings for a person of the opposite sex, because she is afraid of rejection. Usually such a dream means that you need to come into contact with the object of your secret passion, to start a friendly relationship with him, which will gradually turn into a love relationship.
I dreamed of a kind dog whose owner, a friend or female acquaintance, would in reality have the opportunity to come into contact with a special female person. A positive dream means the establishment of warm friendly relations between communicating women.
Dream Interpretation of Juno
This collection of transcripts, telling why a man dreams of a dog (big or small, good or evil), suggests regarding an animal chasing the dreamer as a signal of trouble. If you dream of a bloodhound, this also portends problems. These can affect personal life and undermine material well-being. The best scenario for the development of events in the vision is when a person was able to drive away the animal. It is likely that in reality it will be possible to resolve all difficult situations with the same ease.
Color and size of a good dog
When deciphering a dream, a woman should take into account the color and size of the dog she saw:
- white - great success lies ahead, the development of friendly relations with sincere and decent people;
- black - a hypocrite and a traitor is hiding among friends, he will refuse help in the most difficult moment, and will also try to ruin the dreamer’s reputation by spilling her secrets;
- small, loudly yapping - a warning about the presence of gossips and intriguers in the environment;
- large - for early marriage.
Dream Interpretation of Medea
In this collection of interpretations, the dog is suggested to be associated with uncertainty. Animals have the inherent ability to behave contradictorily. At the same time, it can be loyal to its owner, aggressive, friendly and embittered. If you see a sleeping animal that does not clearly express its mood, it is impossible to predict the dog’s character. This picture should be interpreted as the uncertainty of the dreamer’s life situation. Probably, a person cannot predict even approximately what the development of the state of affairs will be. It is quite possible that soon you will have to mobilize all your forces and quickly make a decision, focusing on changes.
Medea's dream book, telling why a man dreams of a biting dog, suggests interpreting the image as foreshadowing conflict situations. Another decoding option is the approach of a serious illness. The area bitten by the dog is the localization of this disease. But a friendly animal that cuddles up to the dreamer is recommended to be regarded as friendly support. Close people will soon delight you with an attentive attitude.
Breed of a good dog in a dream
An important detail of the dream is the breed of a good dog:
- A woman dreams of an elite lap dog as a sign of a love relationship with an irresponsible, narcissistic man.
- I dream of a kind hunting dog following the scent, sniffing out game - there are many temptations in life, but you should refuse them so as not to spoil your fate.
- If you dream of an affectionate fighting dog, you will meet a strong, strong-willed, authoritative, but dangerous person. Friendly or love relationships will start well, but will gradually result in scandals, discontent, and complaints. This will be followed by separation, but the abandoned person will not leave the dreamer and will begin to pursue her. Such a person can be either a man associated with criminal activity or an insidious, bitchy woman.
- An affectionate shepherd is a symbol of a devoted, decent, honest, fair person, next to whom there is no feeling of fear and insecurity. For an unmarried girl, this image symbolizes a pleasant and reliable guy with whom a strong love relationship will be established.
- A lapdog, dachshund, poodle or other small breed dog symbolizes a woman from the environment: a friend, sister, daughter. The color of a dog's fur is the color of a woman's hair. This person does not have a high status and does not have a significant influence on the dreamer. But if a dog in a dream suddenly turns from affectionate to vicious and bites, then a vile act should be expected from the woman around you.
- A St. Bernard, Great Dane, Labrador or other large dog is a symbol of a calm, reasonable, intelligent, reliable friend who will always give the right advice. For an unmarried woman, this image promises an acquaintance with a mature man who will turn out to be a faithful and reliable friend, an experienced lover, and will insist on starting a family.
- Collie symbolizes a clash with a rival, who will turn out to be a bitchy, arrogant, narcissistic girl. She will be beautiful and glamorous, and it will not be easy for the dreamer to keep her beloved man. For a girl who is not in a relationship, the dream promises entry into high society and communication with authoritative and wealthy individuals.
- A kind mongrel in a dream signals that a friend finds himself in a difficult life situation, but does not tell anyone about it, so as not to burden others with his problems. According to the dream book, a stray dog being caressed means a lonely life ahead. A wounded stray dog rubs against his legs - the dreamer needs love and tenderness, or will help a poor person. In a dream, a woman caressed and fed a homeless dog - in real life a person will appear who will dispel loneliness, give love, and provide financial assistance.
In most cases, a kind, affectionate dog in a dream is a positive symbol for a woman, promising to receive friendly help and support. The dream also indicates the development of love relationships, suggests how to behave with men, and less often reflects the emotional state of the dreamer, her longing for sincere feelings.
Miller's Dream Book
This collection of interpretations of night visions is one of the most popular and interesting. Its compiler, explaining why a man dreams of a dog, suggests paying special attention to the animal’s behavior, variety and breed, as well as the dreamer’s attitude towards it. Usually a dog is a symbol of a certain person or group. If the animal is angry, one may suspect enemy machinations. Sometimes the vision hints at bad messages from friends. If an animal bites, we can confidently say that this is a signal of gossip spread by friends. The animal may look kind and act friendly. This indicates a good attitude towards the dreamer. Luck probably smiles on the person.
Miller's dream book, explaining why a man dreams of a dog, suggests remembering what the animal looked like. If it was thin and dirty and asked for food, the dreamer is in danger of a serious illness. Probably, a dark streak in life is approaching, perhaps material collapse. If the animal was beautiful and clearly belonged to some good breed, financial success is expected in the near future. A big dog that frightens the dreamer speaks of the approach of good luck. Sometimes an animal is associated with society, and through the vision itself the subconscious signals: the person is unreasonably resisting society. A small animal of a famous breed speaks of the approach of flirting, a relationship that is not accompanied by obligations.
