How does a Teddy act when it’s sleepy?
Like humans, a sleepy Teddy may show unusually tired behavior, such as heavy eyelids, a dazed look, yawning, unwillingness to move, and curling up into a ball. If your Teddy often shows these symptoms and they affect its quality of life, it may not be getting enough sleep. Dogs need enough sleep to maintain physical and mental health. Generally, an adult Teddy needs 12-14 hours of sleep per day, while older and younger Teddies may need to sleep even longer.
