Puppy experts say they need 18-20 hours of sleep each day.
Its even yours even though hes always so energetic it drives you crazy.
Your puppy might throw a tantrum every time you suggest a nap just as an exhausted toddler refuses to go to sleep.
Pets that are tired will start misbehaving barking or biting harder than normal.
When you know your fur baby needs a nap put him to bed.
Donot disturb him. Ask your kids not to disturb the puppy while he sleeps. Turn down the volume if you're watching TV.
The puppy will sleep better if the lights are dimmed or the blinds are drawn.
To let your puppy burn some energy take him out for a walk if he refuses to take a nap.
Engage the dog in mental stimulation by making him work for his food. You would not hear a peep from your pet when you put him to bed after playing with a puzzle mat that forces your pet to sniff out the hidden food.
