A dog losing a tail means that a way of keeping your balance is coming to an end. This dream shows how the things that once helped you keep your footing are no longer there to hold you. When the part of a creature that governs its movement and poise is gone, the sense of being grounded is lost.
The loss of this part of the animal marks a time when the foundations you leaned on are slipping away. You may feel a sudden lack of the familiar stability that once guided your steps through the day. I have known the way a chair feels when a leg gives way and the room tilts. It is a heavy thing to realize that the support you relied upon has been severed. The truth of the matter is that you are finding a new way to stand.
A dog’s tail falling off makes the loss of stability feel like a sudden breakage. Because the part is detached, the dream points to a support that has been broken away rather than one that was simply let go.
When a cat loses its tail, the dream suggests that a way of dealing with others through cleverness or hidden motives is no longer working for you. You find that the sharp ways you used to navigate the world have lost their grip.
For its more general meaning: Dream about a dog
Benedita LumeInterpreter interprets your dreams
Well, dear, the old houses never treated a dream as a stranger at the door. A dream was given a chair at the table like a cousin from far away. Most of what it carries is a warm sign about the life already around you, and even a hard one is usually a reminder about something small at home. Rest easy. The house is still standing.
