I was in a city looking like NY. I was walking my dogs around and then ended up sitting and talking at a table with a man. I then realized I didn’t have my dogs with me. I interrupt the guy from talking and walked away to look for my dogs. I started asking people if they have seen 2 dogs around and I showed pictures and gave description of how they look like. I ran into my sister in law and asked for her help. She said she will help after she is done cleaning her apartment and to go with her. I said no I can’t just sit around while I don’t know where my dogs are. I ran off and kept searching and a man said if the police find them they will be sent to the pound. I said then I will get them out and kept walking and searching. I went into an apartment that was crowded with people searching for the dogs. I search every room and the apartment seemed big from the inside. I didn’t find them and it was getting late but I kept shouting their names and searching for them.
This dream may suggest feelings of responsibility and concern for something important in your waking life that you may have overlooked or neglected. The city setting resembling New York could symbolize a busy or overwhelming environment in your life. Walking your dogs and then losing them could represent a situation where you feel like you've lost control or that something important to you is missing.
Talking with the man at the table may indicate distractions or interruptions that prevent you from fully addressing the issue at hand, as symbolized by your missing dogs. Seeking help from your sister-in-law could suggest a desire for support or assistance from someone you trust, but feeling like you can't rely on others to handle the situation for you.
The warning from the man about the dogs possibly being sent to the pound could symbolize a fear of losing something valuable or facing consequences for neglecting a duty. The crowded apartment where you search for your dogs could represent feeling overwhelmed or lost in your attempt to find a solution to your current predicament.
Overall, this dream may be highlighting feelings of anxiety, loss, and the need to take action to address an important matter in your waking life before it reaches a critical point.
