Having a nightmare in which you are being pursued by a rabid dog is defined as follows:
The appearance of a crazed dog in our dreams is a warning that we are being set upon by people who we had previously considered to be our close companions. People are attacking you verbally while you are in the same room with them. Be sure to pick your companions in crime with caution. It's possible that your own instincts are working against you here. If you are the one who kills the "Mad Dog," it indicates that you will confront and win over a problem in your life that has been going on for far too long.
It is a portent of ill omens if you have a dream in which you are attacked by a black dog. It's possible that it's a sign that you'll soon be let down by someone you used to think of as one of your closest friends. If this is the case, you will quickly realize that this person always makes an effort to avoid you during the most difficult times in your life, and this person always ends up revealing information that tends to make your situation even more difficult than it already was. If this is the case, you will soon realize that this person always tries to avoid you during the most difficult times in your life.
In the context of positive dream interpretation, a white dog is typically a representation of a trustworthy and devoted companion. The fact that you saw a white dog in your dream should reassure you that no matter what the future holds, you will never be alone and will always have someone you can count on. It is also reassuring that you can put your complete trust in this friend who has nothing but good intentions toward you and who is behind all of your endeavors 100 percent of the way.
