#16 Puppy sleeping habits and training

#16 Puppy sleeping habits and training

Author: Pets at Home March 9, 2021 Duration: 45:42

NEW EPISODE! Watching them sleep —legs akimbo, paws paddling — is one of the many joys of living with a puppy. Understanding how and when your puppy likes to sleep means you’ll have a happier time together.

“Sleepy time” is the new “me time”. And, for 2021, bedtime routines have been predicted by trend spotters to become more luxurious than ever. So, to celebrate National Bed Month, an event which takes place throughout the entirety of March (organised by the Sleep Council to bring awareness to why a sound sleep is good for our health), we thought we’d talk about puppies and their sleeping requirements. How much sleep does a puppy need? What kind of the bed do they need? And where do you put the bed? All these questions and more are answered, when host Kate Cornish is joined by her panel of experts and a proud puppy owner.
