Do puppies start needing less sleep at night or thinking they do, as they grow? Like going to sleep later and waking earlier?
I've found it to be the other way round - Ziggy has started to settle, and sleep, for longer now that he's got to six months. He used to be a bit more restless and we'd have to pop him into his puppy play pen to settle and get some rest but now he crashes for a couple of hours after each walk and is really relaxed in the evening . . . at last!!!!
Aspen sleeps in his crate from 10pm-8am and will nap throughout the day. I'd say he gets about 12-14 hours of sleep a day. What about Pearl?
The older Quinn has gotten, the later she sleeps in and more she sleeps overall. She basically settles down into a nap outside of walks/playing/eating/training (or following me around the house quietly!) now at almost 2 years old.
