The last 3 days I noticed that Oogie is out and about from about 9:30/10am to 1-2pm, when he crawls in his little dog house. When he's awake, he's very active...eating...pooping...etc. But when he goes into his dog house...THAT'S IT! He's active maybe 4hrs a day (MAX) and the rest he sleeps. I don't bring him inside until after sunset and he just snuggles into bed indoors til morning.
The weather has been great! He has no signs of being sick. He's looking more hydrated. I'm home all day with nearly direct view of him...I know he doesn't leave that dog house after he goes in.
Is this normal behavior for a DT?
Ooo...it was so cute...I let him run around the entire backyard today...at his first opportunity, he crawled through the sliding glass door to explore the house! I just thought it was cool because I have a few friends with torts who said theirs didn't try to get into the house for years. I assume Oogie's previous owner used to let him roam the house.
