Why do Akita dogs love to sleep?

Under normal circumstances, dogs need to sleep about 10 to 14 hours a day. If they are puppies or elderly dogs, they will sleep longer, so it is normal. If the dog has other symptoms that cause him to be in low spirits and sleepy, it is best to go to the hospital for examination. The dog may be suffering from other diseases and is uncomfortable, so he likes to sleep more.
