Hello, i have a 6 1/2 week old Pit bull mix puppy and he’s acting a little strange. He falls asleep and looks like he’s dreaming, and then wakes up screaming. Is there anything that would cause this? He’s still eating, drinking, peeing and having bowel movements.

Dexter is so cute! It could be he is having bad dreams causing the screaming. It's good that he is otherwise acting normally, but if this behavior continues, have him checked out by a vet. I hope this helps!
