Your puppy loves to sleep and sleep and sleep some more. Is something wrong with the puppy?
The answer is probably not. Although there is no specific prescribed amount of sleep for puppies, you will find that the little balls of fur will probably spend twice as much as time sleeping as you do.
Nap and sleep times vary greatly between breeds. Some puppies are satisfied with 14 hours of sleep. Others may need up to 19 or 20 hours of rest in a 24-hour period. Don’t be concerned if your puppy naps most of the day unless you notice other issues that could indicate a health problem. However, you do need to make sure that your puppy reacts to noises and activities in his or her environment. Failure to become alert when action happens could indicate a hearing problem.
