Dog Sleep
Sleep is an indispensable way to rest in physical strength and maintain health. Dogs are nightling animals when they are wild, sleep during the day, and move at night. After the dog is domesticated by humans, it is basically consistent with the living of humans. It is changed to daytime activities. Sleeping at night, unlike people, the dog will not sleep from night to the morning, and always keep alert when sleeping.
The dog completely stopped when sleeping, but it was particularly sensitive to the sound. In addition, the pose of the dog's sleeping always faces the head towards the outside, such as the gates of the courtyard, and you can see various changes outside at any time. Dogs need 14 to 15 hours a day, but they are often divided into several times.
As the age increases, dogs' sleep time will gradually increase. Not only the body needs maintenance, but the brain needs to be healing, so sufficient sleep is the key factor of the dog's longevity.
However, just sleeping for a long time is not necessarily good. Like humans, it is not possible to sleep well due to reflex reactions, which will also affect the quality of the dog's sleep. So, how can we have "high -quality sleep"?
In addition to a comfortable and comfortable sleep environment, we must also have good sleeping habits. For the health of dogs, let's find a way to sleep.
How to sleep is called sleeping
The sleep of senior mammals such as dogs and humans, in addition to allowing the body to rest, can also automatically rest in the brain and compose memory Efficacy. The deep sleep that can rest on the brain is "non -different sleep", as well as "different phase sleep" that can rest. "Different Sleep" refers to sleep that the human body is already asleep but his eyes are still moving. When a dog can feel safe to the guardians and the environment around them, this safe instruction signal will be transported to the dog's brain, allowing the dog to gradually enter asleep rest.
Dogs 'sleep frequency
Dogs' sleep frequency is 45 minutes, which is just half of human beings. The body and brain are repeatedly carried out in the state of "different phase sleep" and "non -different phase sleep". The soberness and non -sleeping state play a role in connecting. Generally, it is about 80 % of sleep. That is: 1. Enter the sleep state; 2. Start the mild sleep state of falling asleep; 3. Enter deep sleep; 4. Deep sleep, be classified into phase 1-4 periods, restore fatigue and stress reactions to eliminate and improve the reaction and increase. The role of immunity and sorting damage; 5. Then the stage of the body is ready to get up.
Because of living with humans, dogs and owners have the same life mode, so they are the same as sleep. However, because the dog's sleep frequency is shorter than humans, there are more repeated time during the sleep process. Even if the owner speaks his dream in the middle of the night, the dog will respond immediately, and then continue to continue. My sleep.
If the rules of the owner's life come out day and night, the dog will also reverse his sleep habits day and night, but this will fundamentally disturb the biological biology in the dog's body. For the health of the dog, this type will be. The owner should consider changing his laws of life.
