It is normal, because when your at work during the day he usually sleeps 90% of the time! So he is used to sleeping during those times! Mine were used to waking up in the morning at 6AM and then going to their pen from 7AM-3PM, until summer hit and I was out of school! Then they still fell asleep everytime they were inside!
Is this normal?
I am home on vacation this week, so for the first time I get to spend a big chunk of time with Marley during the day. Well, he sleeps sooooooo much. I am sticking to the schedule of when he is home alone, except that he is crated no where near as much, and we get to play more. I am up at the same time, he eats at the same time, and to bed at the same time.
When he gets up, he is still yawning, but is energetic and plays. Then within about a half hour of eating, he is napping. Then he's back up and I take him out, play, half hour later, he is yawning to signal that he needs another nap. He's still sleeping 7 hours at night, so I would guesstimate he is sleeping about 18-20 hours a day.
Here's my question...do they really sleep this much at 4 months old? How much do these pups normally sleep?
