How much sleep should my Cavapoo puppy get, and what about adult dogs?

Question

How much sleeping is typical for Zoey, a Cavapoo at this age? Adult dogs sleep a lot too, right? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 7 months and 20 days old | 14 lbs

Dr. Melanie, BVSc MS · Accepted Answer

An adult dog typically sleeps 12-14 hours a day, but puppies need more rest, as much as 18-20 hours. Given that Zoey is still a puppy and is growing, she will need more sleep than an adult dog, but not as much as a young puppy. She could be sleeping around 16-18 hours a day.
