Hi! I am an assistant for Cassie Shortsleeve who is working on a
fun piece for Greatpetcare.com called Why Do Dogs Sleep So Much?
We'd love to hear from a veterinarian currently in practice by
7/15: *How do sleeping patterns differ in dogs compared to
humans? How long do dogs spend in REM sleep? During which part
of their sleeping pattern might dogs dream? *How much do puppies
sleep compared to adult dogs? Do they need more sleep or to
stick to a "sleeping schedule"? *Is it known why exactly dogs
sleep so much? If so, why may this be? *We'd love to share
abnormal sleeping habits that could indicate certain sleep
disorders such as a change in sleeping patterns, sleeping more
often, insomnia, sleep apnea, or sleepwalking. If a pet parent
notices their dog is having issues or a sudden change in
sleeping habits, what sleep disorders or other health conditions
might these indicate? When should a pet parent take their dog to
the veterinarian for a check-up? *Is there anything else you'd
like to add about this topic?
Thanks in advance!
