I know a little boy that gets ill and they can't find what's wrong. He has spells of fainting. Last night I dreamt he was in a cot, like for a younger child with a bulldog. The bulldog would faint and come to and then he would faint and come to. Then I left him for one second and the bulldog lay on top of him and seemed to cause his death. I didn't even get as far as grief in the dream just shock and disbelief. The bulldog then seemed to be dead, tied with a leash on the bars of the cot.
The little boy has had many tests and nothing conclusive. He experienced trauma a few years ago when a friend of his was killed and this still worries and effects him. On a personal note I really hate Bulldogs as a breed and wish they weren't so popular. It's about the only animal I don't like. In the dream the bulldog was in no way aggressive however, it was even quite gentle, just heavy and not suitable for being in a cot with a young child.
Being the thing:
cot- I am childhood protection
Bulldog- I am invasion, clumsy, burden, dumb, insensitive.
Child- I am soft, beautiful, intelligent, sensitive.
