While most (73 per cent) said they were baffled by some of the sleeping positions they find their dog in, for the most part their dogs are like clockwork, with two thirds saying their dog wakes up at the same time each morning.ĭr Helen Whiteside, Head of Research at Guide Dogs, said: “We’re a nation of dog lovers and our pets are part of our family.
Owners also revealed where their dogs liked to get their sleep – two thirds sleep in the dog bed, while one in 10 dogs has been found sleeping in a washing basket. Pet dog owners were asked about the dog’s sleeping behaviour and the most common sleeping position is for the dog to be curled up (71 per cent), while 57 per cent lay on their back with their legs in the air. New research has uncovered the most common positions our canine companions adopt for some shuteye – and the cute and sometimes embarrassing antics that go with it. Guide Dogs is raising awareness of the importance of sleep in the development of the nation’s puppies – encouraging midday siestas and a calm and quiet environment to relax in.
