Don't worry.... The average dog sleeps 12 to 14 hours a day - house dogs more.
Puppies really do sleep a lot - then when they get older they sleep less for a while -- and then as they get older, they begin sleeping more.
We should worry about this - we should envy them!!!!
If you can get up with your dog and spend the entire day doing interesting things with him - he'll stay up and be active and love doing it. But, most of our dogs are left on their own for hours ever day to find things to entertain themselves, and a great deal of their sleeping is just because they have nothing more exciting to do.
