Dogs symbolize loyalty or fidelity, especially to your own values or intentions; therefore, your ability to go foreward in the world from a staong internal base. Dogs guard treasure, so their apperance may indicate a treasure (skill, knowledge) you have ignored forgotten that needs to be activated, or has the potention to be activated; some idea or aspect of yourself, that you need to guard more carefully. Is something happening in your waking life that you need to be on guard about or need to guard against? Is something threatening you, and you are, or need to be guarding your teriitory? Consider whether there is something in your waking life that you have diffedly pursuing, or that you are feeling hounded about. If you are a woman dreaming of pregnant dog, it may symbolize your own sexual or maternal instincts.
Dogs have a keen sense of smell to nose out matters, so they can symbolize intuition. If the dog is a pet, it may represent a need or wish for life; caring; pampering; no reseponsibilty. If wild and dangerous it suggest primitive insticts.

In my dream I’m being chased by this huge guard dog that belongs to my uncle. He’s running after me in my neighborhood. I run through backyards, hide behind doors and the dog still figures out where I am. In the end after jumping over a wall I finally get to my own back yard. And there I see two double doors locked that lead into my house. I looked over the double doors though, and I see a horizontal open space wide enough for me to get in. I jump inside and I make it, but then I walk to my front door and I see my family members outside with the dog. They come in the house and the dog remains outside. I’m yelling at them and telling them they should have that dog killed and that it is no good . Then I wake up.

In my dream I saw a big Alsatian dog put its front legs on my shoulders from behind and talking to me. But I can’t remember what it said. I just want to know the meaning of this dream.
