      Question Talking White Dog ( incredibly startling dream)

      Hello everyone. This is my very first post and I would be forever grateful if someone can help decipher me this incredibly startling dream I had few days ago.

      First of all, I would like to give some personal background about myself. I'm female and I'm 23 years old. Animals are no strangers to my dreams. I dream of them often and with time, I have learnt to associate you them with the correct symbolism and the corresponding psychological state. I dream of bugs when I'm stressed. When I'm scared, I dream of crocodiles. When I'm feeling good, I dream of lions or eagles and so on. So in most cases, they are connected to me directly. In this dream however, I felt like it was something else entirely, something beyond my own subconscious.

      The dream goes like this.

      I was nowhere to be seen in the dream. I was seeing it unfold like you would see a movie scene. Objective, distant and at times I felt like I was intruding on something I shouldn't see. During the whole dream, I felt nothing (strangely apathetic to the whole scene).

      There was a room. A ruined, torn down, broken filthy room. Its walls and floor were so black with filth that they were almost impossible to tell from each other. The walls were cracked and full of holes. There was almost little to no light around.

      In the middle of the dirty room. There was a a man. A filthy barefoot man. Holed, torn rags were barely hanging off his dirty body. Some parts of his body were left uncovered. His hair was long, falling down his shoulders in a tangled greasy mess. The hair covered all of his face and I couldn't see his eyes.

      Beneath his bare feet, there were crushed pomegranate grains, a lot of them. ( I never dreamt of them before).

      The man was standing still, head down. He looked so defeated and weary.Right at the other end of the room, there was a dog.

      The dog was looking right back at the man. His fur coat was white as snow.Between his jaws, runny blood-like substance was dripping down his neck and running down his fur, matting it with red. It was the juice of a crushed blood orange.

      In his eyes, there was pity and sorrow as he looked at the man. The white dog, staying where he was, said to the man :

      "Barefoot fool,
      Filthy fool,
      Look at you now
      Naked and nothing.."

      His said the words in my family's native tongue which I rarely dream in. ( I mostly dream in English.)

      And then I woke up. I was so startled by what I saw. I looked at my phone and it was 4.30 a.m. I couldn't go back to sleep after that.

      The dream was so unlike any other I ever had and the images are stuck with me, even right now. It was so weird and disconnecting. It was like was seeing a memory or a dream of someone else. It didn't feel like my own and it shook me up.

      Later in the day, I found out by someone in the family that my grandfather did not die naturally like everyone else says. He committed suicide ( shot himself in the head).

      I don't why but I felt like the dream was connected to my grandfather, even though I didn't know the truth of his death at the time of the dream. I never knew the man, he died young at 24. My mother was only one-month old at that time, so she never knew her father either. My grandmother rarely speaks of him and his death is almost never mentioned. For so long, I thought he died of a heart disease and I'm shocked that to know the truth. No one knows why he did it and no one speaks of it. Do you think the man is my grandfather ? or is something else that has nothing to do with him ? Who is the dog ?
