If a person dreams that a dog bit him, he will have trouble with an enemy and his enemy will transgress against him, especially if it takes some of his flesh or garment. That is also indicative of sickness.
The dogs that belong to people signify the foolish men among them and their power among them. We have seen above that Abu Bakr (May Allah be please with him) sawin a dream on his way to Makkah what the Prophet (Peace be upon him) approached Makkah with his Companions, and a female dog came out to them waving her tail; when they got close to her, she fell on her back dripping with milk.
The Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: The sheepdog signifies wealth that the dreamer will obtain from a leader. The trained dog signifies a man who will support the dreamer against his enemy and will try to help him to gain some provision, buthe is a bad man with no chivalry. It was said that this indicates that the dreamer will attain authority and sufficient livelihood, because he is controlling one who has the ability to catch gazelles and other animals.
