I'm not saying it isn't the general case. I'm saying it isn't absolute. I also am not saying sleepwalking is part of REM; I'm saying it is an example of how mechanisms for quiescence are not perfect. And since we're talking specifically about your claim about dogs, I'd like the dog reference specifically, please.

  https://www.petmd.com/dog/general-health/do-dogs-dream https://www.petmd.com/dog/general-health/do-dogs-dream This suggests that all mammals brain work simmiliar and are paralyzed durring rem. I'm not sure why your bringing up sleepwalking and night terrors, those don't occur durring rem, so it had nothing to do with paralysis disfunctioning And I'm not even sure what point your getting at with your comments? Just demanding sources. I feel like you can Google these things your self

    I know someone who sleepwalks their dreams. People are demanding sources because you are claiming "always" when the reality is almost certainly just "usually."

      I'm talking about general cases, not disorders. Sleeping walking doesnt occur durring rem, Google it. there's other disorders that allow for movement durring rem. What does disorders have to do with anything?

    I did Google and found a source contradicting your claim, as well as nothing supporting it. As I've explained, I bring those up as examples that the sleep system is not 100% reliable, so I think it's a mistake to go from the general case of "most motor control is shut down during REM sleep" to "nobody in any species ever twitches during a dream".

      I think you need to work on your reading comprehension skills because I never said anything like that. Maybe your people interaction skills too. If my initial comment wasn't clear your free to ask for clarification instead of putting words in my mouth. Ill recap for you, The parent post wonders if his dog is barking at things it dreams about I join in after remembering that were paralyzed during rem, the stage when we sleep, implying the conclusion its probably just weird movements during other stages of sleep. You then join in asking for sources about general sleep knowledge, then you actually say you don't know about sleep, your only suspicious, make a wild connection between the word "movement" being part of the acronym REM and so clearly we aren't paralyzed. Then you make an incorrect conclusion about sleepwalking and night terrors as some point to refuting paralysis during REM. But you don't seem to understand that those don't happen during the REM stage. This point makes no sense, if anything actually strengthens the thing Im wondering about, because there are movements happening during non dream states of sleep. I then read your post, you seem really confused, so I indulge you in your request for sources with a quick google search because you seem to not even have a general knowledge of sleep. I'm confused why you latched onto my post, and then started arguing and what point you are arguing. Maybe you need to dream more?

        Given the ad hominems and the repeated misunderstanding of what seemed like a simple request to me, I don't see a lot of value in trying to explain my question to you yet again.
