| Grunting? Gizmo seems to make this grunting type noise while sleeping sometimes and if your petting him, and sometimes running. I almost relate it to a cat purring lol hell do it alot when you pet him. Just curious if its normal i forgot to mention it to vet when i was there.

| He's just dreaming if it's while he's sleeping. The boxer I used to have did it, also. So did a couple other dogs I know. And my girl does the grunting, too. |

| Doing it when running? I would video or audio record any episodes of it possible and let the vet assess what is going on just to be sure he's okay.

| Bella does that sound too. It's like a cat purring sound but I thing it's her growl. It is cute. She does it at play time and when she's all keyed up. |
