How much do your beagles sleep ?
Hello,
We have a 4 years old beagle.
She's always up for a walk and has a good level of energy as long as the walk lasts but she's definitely a big sleeper.
She usually falls asleep for the night around 11pm and she can easily sleep until 1pm, with some little naps during the day.
Currently, my in laws are staying with us for vacation so her usual schedule is a little bit disturbed. She wakes up earlier than the usual (9/10am) and when they are here we tend to go out more and longer with her.
Yesterday, my bf and his parents went to the beach with her. They left home at 2pm and came back at 11pm because they had dinner in a restaurant, so kind of a long day out.
It's almost 4pm now and she's still asleep lol so it has been about 17 hours of sleeping. It's definitely not unusual for her under these circumstances.
I'm not really worried, I'm home with her, the door to the garden is wide open but she's still snoring, despite me living my life normally, coming over to check on her and cuddle.
So ... Is this unusual for a beagle ? Or do you also have big sleepers at home ? I'm curious to know what their sleeping patterns are like
