Greetings everyone! Maximus sleeps about 22 hours out of a 24 hour day. I should have named him after one of the Seven Dwarfs (Sleepy). He is about 4 years old and I have had him for about a year and a half. He is a rescue from the "doggie prison". I believe that he is still exhibiting the behaviors from when he was with his previous family. I am not sure what that was like, but he finds his few favorite places in the house and sleeps. He only wakes or shows activity when it is time for him to go for his walk to go potty or to eat... and even that can be an event.
I am wondering if he is still living through some possible trauma that he might have went through in his early days. He is not aggressive, no more than what his breed calls for. He doesn't use the house as his bathroom. He is just very inactive. Any ideas on how I can get him more active?
