Sleeping Time

How many hours a day would you say an 8 week old puppy needs to sleep? I mean day time hours...Its only been 2 years since I had a puppy and I forgot now with my new one! :)

My older one doesn't seem to be sleepng as much as he did. Too busy watching the new puppy! And the puppy doesn't seem to sleep all that long either during the day...too busy watching the older dog! :lol: :lol: But I am afraid the little one isn't getting enough rest!

They sleep in frequent short shifts more than an all day crash. My older guys are dying without their normal 18 hours of sleep because Owen just won't have it. Now that Owen is 13 weeks, they're all collectively relaxing with each other at the same time (though Owen is the last one down and the first one up). It's amazing how different things have become in just a month! That first week or so was rough though since everyone's every interested in each other so all normal habits are set aside.
Apolo is now 16 weeks and he is so good! I thought I'd never get a break. He actually naps and goes all night and is pretty much all potty trained. He even listens better to commands. Boy what a difference even 2 weeks make! :) :) :)
