Is he normal or lazy?

[shonajoy]

Indie is six months now, and doing well apart from the odd accident poo wise. Every morning we go out to the country park after dropping the kids at school, and when we come back he sleeps all morning!

He's always dozing, he's in and out of the garden all day, and then come 8pm up on my bed snoring waiting for me to go to bed! :roll:

Is this normal or lazy?

Probably means he's contented. Mine sleep like this, they potter around every now and then and have a mad half hour together then go back to sleep. Goes to show that those who think their dogs are missing them when they're out are just sleeping.

Indie is the same Shona   Snoozing whenever she can, I think the warmer weather makes them a bit lazier too

Tilly sleeps a lot too.  I read somewhere that most dogs spend at least 75% of their time sleeping - it's a hard life, but somebody has to do it!  

In the evening she sleeps until bedtime, when she has a quick trip to the garden and then sleeps again for another 8 hours!  She'll sleep anywhere, but her favourite place is on the sofa whilst we watch the TV, drowned out by her loud snores - and to think everyone thinks she is such a little lady!!

She'll quite happily sleep most of the day too, whilst I work on the computer.  So long as she has her walks and playtime and grooming she seems quite fit and happy.

OOoooooh, you bad mummy!!! Having met Tilly on Sunday I can assure everyone that she is a little lady.  She's an absolute angel.  Dillon was quite smitten but since he's the only one of the boys there who has been "snipped" I think his ardour is in vain

Hi Shona. Pickle, who has just turned 6 months, is a lazy lump too  :roll: . He likes nothing better than to sprawl out on the floor fast asleep. I can actually pick him up when he is like this, and he won't move a muscle - he'll open one eye, but otherwise he appears like rigor mortis has set in! He still loves to run around outside, but compared to 3 months ago, when he was permanantly turbo-charged, he is a lot more chilled out.
Bless them, they're so sweet when they snore!!!
