My dog shakes in her sleep. Is she dreaming? How can I stop it?

Question

Bella is always like shaking or moving or something in her sleep . I guess it’s just dreams but is there any way to help it stop ? She sleeps on my bed the majority of the time because my fiancé does over nights and I need someone to cuddle with! Lol but I just hate being woken up to her moving.

This is most likely her just dreaming. Some dogs are more active dreamers than others, just like humans. You can try benadryl about 30 minutes before you go to bed to see if it helps. Benadryl is pretty benign and could be given every night if it helps. See link below. I hope this helps! https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/dog/benadryl/#!
