Have you noticed if your dog/s sleep with their eyes open?

I'm sat here watching Dippy sleep and her eye's are wide open and she's in the middle of rapid eye movement (REM sleep) and its really freaky.

Is this normal?

Dunno it it's normal, but one of my kids sleep with an eye or eyes open sometimes....

I reckon it's the gypsy coming out in her....

All mine do this, (even One Eyed Freddie the Legend (RIP ), with his remaining eye, he had glaucoma) as well as making funny noises a bit like muffled barking and yelping, twitching and making running like movements mostly with their paws (a sonambulatic whippet would be really scarey!). I think it is quite sweet, even the rolling eyeball stuff! :huggles:
