Topic Dog Boards / Behaviour / Puppy Sleeps for 2 Hours after Eating
- By sophiespop [us] Date 19.08.03 18:43 UTC
Hello

My 7 week old mini dachshund puppy sleeps for 1 or 2 hours after eating, and then goes to the bathroom outside. Why does she do this?

Because she's just a baby, and that is normal behaviour for young pups, eat, sleep, poop, little play then more sleep. :) Get yourself a copy of 'the perfect Puppy' by Gwen Baily, that should answer most puppy questions you may have and more.

Good luck with your pup :)

Edited to add. you should be chuffed she's going outside to do her business at such a young age. Some breeders won't let their pups go to a new home til 8 weeks.
