If your dogs sleep with their eyes opened, it is nothing to worry about; they are just being dogs. Not all dogs sleep with their eyes opened. But, if you are a dog owner and notice that your dog sleeps with their open it can be very worrisome if you don’t know that it is natural for them to do so.
Why do some dogs sleep with their eyes opened? There are many reasons why your dog may sleep with its eyes open. If you have an older dog that was adopted the dog may have fear or abandonment issues and that is why they sleep with their eyes opened.
Dogs never really go into a full sleep state, this is because they are animals. They are always on alert for predators or food. It is just a dog’s natural instinct. So, some dogs will sleep with their eye opened because of this instinct.
LOL! I’m reading this post watching my dog sleeping and she has her eyes open! She always sleeps with atleast one eye open. I knew they slept with their eyes open to guard their families but I didn’t know about the abandonment issues so you learned me something.
Very interesting – I did not know until now because I do not have a dog
Really interesting video!
Your writing confirms my allegations so far. I myself do not keep dogs, but a cat, but all my brothers and sisters have many dogs. This article also reminds me of a story I read as a teenager, about a queen, whom I forgot her name and country, who always slept with eyes open for fear of being killed.
It’s natural
I kinda of know why they sleep with their eyes open, because they are ready to defend their family and property, but didn’t know about the abandonment part of it!
Thats very good to know, thanks for the information.
your welcome
Kust learned something very interesting from this article. Thank you.
I meant “Just “. Excuse me. My typo.
Another useful information. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing, I did not know that
glad to hear you learned something from this article.
I have had a lot of dogs, but never had one do this. I had some that acted out their dreams, though. LOL
I have heard of that. Some will kick, bark or cry in their sleep.
I LIke it nice post,
Thank-you, hamza.
My pleasure dear:
No idea, but it is freaky, one of my cousins does the same.
Brrrr
It was bothering a friend of mine that is why I wrote this post. It is normal. Nothing to worry about.
nice 🙂
Some people sleep with their eyes open too! It makes sense for dogs to do so because they feel like they are protecting their family.
Yes, but it does bother some people when they see it.
