Why do pugs sleep so much? (and why naps matter more than you think)

Do pugs really sleep that much?

Some people think pugs sleep a lot.

This is not entirely accurate.

Pugs simply understand something humans often forget.

Rest is important.
Extremely important.

Jabba:
Jojo… do you think humans nap enough?

Jojo:
Absolutely not.

Jabba:
Why?

Jojo:
Because they are always running somewhere.

Jabba tilts her head.

Jabba:
Running where?

Jojo:
Work. Meetings. Emails. Deadlines.

Jabba:
That sounds exhausting.

Jojo:
It is.

Which is why pug sleeping habits are based on a much better system.

Why naps are essential (according to pugs)

Jabba:
You mean naps?

Jojo:
Strategic naps.

Jabba:
How many strategic naps per day?

Jojo:
Ideally? Five.

Morning nap.
Late morning nap.
Afternoon nap.
Pre-dinner nap.
And of course the evening nap.

Jabba thinks about this very seriously.

What humans can learn from pug sleeping habits

Jabba:
Jojo… Mum wakes up very early now.

Jojo:
Yes.

Jabba:
And then she travels three hours every single day.

Jojo:
Correct.

Jabba:
Three hours.

Jojo:
Yes.

Jabba:
Just to go to work.

Jojo:
That is the current situation.

Jabba stares into the distance for a moment.

Jabba:
Do you think… Mum has completely lost her mind?

Jojo sighs softly.

Jojo:
No.

Jabba:
No?

Jojo:
Humans simply forget that life also requires naps.

Jabba slowly curls up beside him.

Jabba:
When Mum comes back to Greece, we should teach her our system.

Jojo:
The strategic nap system?

Jabba:
Exactly.

Jojo closes one eye.

Jojo:
Yes…
that might be the most useful thing we ever do for her.
