Yeah, we have running and woofing. My Dal was a pro...she was loud and ran like crazy in her sleep!

I had a foster Shar-Pei that made the weirdest noises in his sleep. Well, being a Shar-Pei he made weird noises when he was awake too-- Peis made a sound a bit like a yodel. When he was asleep though he made this noise that sounded like a human laughing, kinda like a short high-pitched laugh. The first time I heard it I thought a family member was laughing at something, then I looked around and no one was in the room! I looked down and there was Harley, twitching away and going "Hah! Hah! Hah!"
I felt kinda bad for him though because he always looked like he was having nightmares.

I think that would have creeped me out.

Yep! Twitches, jerks, wags her tail, (I love it when that happens, it's hilarious!) yips, growls, etc. Snores too. One time when we were all sleeping, (yes, she's allowed on the bed, she curls up by my feet in her usual spot) she started kicking so hard she woke me up! Wish I knew what she dreamed about, especially when she wags her tail!

I won't let Morgan lay on my bed when I'm in it because she's running a marathon! Luther was scarey - he used to nash his teeth, growl and curl up his feet very aggressively - like he was dreaming about hurting someone.

Both my dogs' do the same thing. They'll start twitching and then yip and then start running like something was after them. I've almost fallen off the bed a few times from them. And it's usually Isa who starts it first. lol.
