Canids(dogs, foxes,wolves) rarely sleep more than an hour or two at a time. They nap for periods then awaken for a period of activity, then rest again..As pack hunters, they need to be ready for the chase at a moments notice, and to sleep for long periods could be detrimental to the pack's survival. Foxes, usually lone hunters, also nap for brief periods.

Usually around 9-14 hours. It also depends on the age of your dog. Dogs in their prime are closer to 9 hours. young pups and old dogs closer to 14 hours. Sometimes this is affected by the stimulation available for your dog. if your dog is bored and does not have many options for stimulation they will opt for sleep. If your young dog seems to be sleeping excessively they maybe bored. over sleeping and excessive chewing are signs of boredom

I would say 12 hours a day.

It could vary depending on the age and breed of the dog. Most dogs sleep about 14 hours a day broken up between short naps and longer dozes.

Chihuahua`s usually sleep alot if the home is quiet, and when you sit down they are ready for another nap.
