| Does your furbaby sleep a lot? My lil girl sleeps A LOT- she's 5 years old and sleeps throughout the whole day unless you're specifically playing with her. Anyone else's girls/boys like that? |

| One of ours does (our 3 year old). But she just simply prefers to sleep. In fact she seems to, eat, pee, sleep, eat, pee, sleep, eat..... you get the point. Shes not really into playing. She does love her walks though! And she makes for an amazing cuddle bug!

| I think in general most dogs sleep/doze throughout the day and night, other than when they're on a walk, playing, eating, etc. Some may do so more than others. I know I read somewhere that cats sleep an average of 18 hours out of every 24 hours. I don't know about dogs though.

Thor's Human Donating Member | Mine is like that too. I wonder about it sometimes. I generally take him outside for at least an hour every day + 30 minutes of evening play, and maybe some training, cuddling, etc. Other than that, he's sleeping, eating, or pooping. Actually he does spend a fair amount of time starting into space... sometimes I wonder if he's bored. He tends to get barkier if he hasn't had a lot of exercise, so I use that as a gauge of his activity level.
