As a parent I have been awakenend several times over the years by kids having bad dreams. Last night it wasn't a kid it was my dog Champ! He was sleeping at the foot of my bed making the weirdest noises I finally had to wake him up because he was so loud! I really think it was a doggie nightmare. We both went back to sleep shortly after. Champ is the white one. Baron is the black one. I'm the really white one with freckles!
