How much does your Yorkie sleep?
 

On rainy or cold days, Tibbe, age 3 1/2, probably sleeps 18-19 hours or so. On pretty, sunny days, he sleeps around 12 hours and is up and active the rest of the time. But I have noticed a definite tendency of his to curl up and sleep away the bad days.

:confused: hiya , i dont really know the answer to your question , poppy does not sleep much through the day if there is someone home with her :) but she sleeps with us and she sleeps all night , every night , and is not keen on getting up in the morning , hope somebody has an answer for you :) love jill n poppy xx :aimeeyork

Mine sleep through the night, I am sure they sleep when I am gone, and they will curl up late at night when I watch tv and sleep, but otherwise they are up playing. I will say armani slept a lot more before we got Chloe. Now that he has a playmate he can play more easily without help from me.

Buster takes a fair amount of naps. I was reading Armaniman's post and I think since Buster is an only dog he sleeps more out of boredom. Perhaps if he had a companion he would sleep less.

Hmmm... well, Jackson usually falls asleep for the night around 10pm and sleeps until 8-9 the next morning. In general, he sleeps 10hrs through the night. Then he sleeps probably 6hrs during the day. So maybe 16ish hours a day? Rainy days and snowy days are different... he tends to sleep a lot more on those days!

Levi's sleep patterns vary based on if someone is home throughout the day with him or not. He generally falls asleep for the night around 10pm and wakes up at 6:30am to go potty and eat breakfast. He then goes back to sleep from 7-10am. He will literally stay awake the entire day if I am home or if I take him everywhere with me. If I am at work or in class, I'm sure he sleeps for most of that time...so he probably sleeps anywhere from 10-18 hours a day. If I had to guess, I would say he sleeps 16 hours a day throughout the week, and maybe 12 hours a day on the weekends.

My current little girl will be six in a few days. I've had her since she was a tiny puppy though. Kacee and I take at least one walk of two plus miles everyday. If we have enough daylight, good weather, and time we will do two walks and sometimes crowd some little walks around the yard in there. I think he probably needs more stimulation. Just my guess. Does he have a great place where he can look out the windows and watch the world go by? Does he play any? There are lots of things you an do to get him excited about living life. Does he like to go for car rides? Kacee loves a nice ride in the car. Kacee goes to work with me, so her days are a lot different and she sees lots of people during the day and gets to go outside a number of times for tiny walks. Even so, she takes her long walk in the evening and in nice weather loves to enjoy spending some time outdoors enjoying the nice weather. She does have a fenced yard, but I put her long leash on her yesterday evening and hooked it around something so she could spend the time outside with me while I was cutting off some decorative grasses. She loved it. She was laying in the grass in a shady area close to me and enjoyed watching everything going on around her.

Princess is about 15 months and sleeps if I am busy or sleeping. If I'm on the couch or at the PC she is insisting on playing. Whenever we are gone, no matter how long, it seems she sleeps the whole time. No toys will be out, no food will be gone, & her water even looks untouched. Looking through some pictures almost all of them are of her sleeping! I do think she would be more active if she had a lil sis...maybe one day!:dogzzz:

Pann is almost 2 and he never sleeps he always go go gos! he takes a 5 minute nap and then he is go go going again lol

My little Teddy sleeps more than the two old goats! Teddy has been a lazy couch potato since we brought him home at 10 weeks old. My old dogs will play and run around and Teddy will just stay anchored on his cloud 9 bed, unless it involves food in which case he is up and around.

Foxy is around 5 years old and she sleeps ALL the time, granted when I move from one spot to another in the house she is right behind me and then asleep again..lol..But poor thing has been through alot so I am sure shes just resting normally. I wouldnt worry too much. jmo
