It is not uncommon for dogs to twitch, vocalize, and paddle while sleeping but it is a concerning that she seems abnormal when you wake her up. She should be examined by a vet to determine the cause and if treatment is needed. It would be a good idea to record an episode so your vet can see exactly what she is doing.
