The dog is the faithful companion and the guardian of the threshold. In dreams it speaks of loyalty, friendship and protection, and of the instincts that serve you when they are trained. It often stands for a real friend, or for the way you keep faith with others.
When the dream feels light
A friendly dog promises loyal friends, protection and help that comes when you need it.
When the dream feels dark
A biting or barking dog may mean a quarrel with a friend, betrayed trust or an instinct you have neglected and that now turns aggressive.
Ask yourself
Who keeps faith with me, and with whom do I keep faith?
