Hi Georgie120
There’s a question – do hogs dream! The answer is, I don’t know. Not sure how anyone could find out!
But seriously. There are two possibilities that come to mind about the noises.
One is that it could be a female who was being courted by a male out of sight. That sound is a rhythmic sort of huffing noise.
Another possibility is that it might have a lung infection or lungworm and be having laboured breathing. If you think this might be the case you could find your local carer by ringing the BHPS 01584 890801 and ask their advice. You would be able to explain it much better to them than is possible on the Forum.
Re. the noises in the box. It could be a hog grunting as it re-arranges the bedding. I have heard hogs making quite a lot of noise in boxes, but usually including a certain amount of what sounds like moving stuff around. i.e. scraping, etc.
