We’ve all seen a puppy, worn out from exploring but not yet able to admit it, trying desperately to stay alert whilst struggling to keep its little brown eyes from closing. The blinks slow right down, lasting longer and longer while its head slowly droops, perhaps a tongue will come rolling out of the mouth and then finally… plop. Puppy goes to sleep right there and then.
The consequence of this tendency to doze off on the spot is that dogs can often be found fast asleep in the strangest places and positions – sometimes you just scratch your head and think “how can that possibly be comfortable?” As someone that can’t even properly sleep on a plane, I wish I could find a place to crash as easily as this!
