Oh The Places You Sleep: Vol. 1

Dogs tend to sleep between 12 – 14 hours a day, and considering that makes up the majority of our day, we sometimes have to get a little creative with our napping spots. It could get quite boring if you slept the same way hour after hour, so I like to vary it up a little each time. So here’s a collection of some of my favorite ways to take a nap throughout the day!

Afternoon Nap

Sometimes I like to find a nice sunny spot to dose in for an enjoyable afternoon nap.

Afternoon naps are simply the best, but as I slowly begin to awake….

…I come face to face with the lens of a camera!

Frankly it’s a bit creepy!

Today I’m going under cover. Sometimes a dog just needs a little getaway.

Snuggled up in my favorite blankie – I’m relaxing today. No big adventures, no time for hunting bunnies in the backyard – just a day to catch up on my sleep!

A Day of Rest

After my big excursion yesterday to the Spring Doxie Fest in Maryland, I decided to spend today resting. I probably look like this:

The non-Adventure Days

Contrary to popular belief, not “everyday” is an adventure at my house.

On those rare days that there isn’t much going on, I can be found like this.

Fighting the urge to sleep, because you never know when you need to be ready for your next big adventure.

It’s best to sleep with one eye open too, because…..

..you never know when the paparazzi is going to show up!

And everyone knows you don’t want to have photos of you with bed-head circling around on the internet.

Lucky for me I look cute no matter what I’m doing. *wink*
