A very calm puppy

Hello everyone! Mopsey is doing so good. She has some accidents in the house (prefers my pottery barn rug over the walmart one :) ), but overall goes out and does her thing. Here is my question: are puppies supposed to be calm at 8 weeks? SHe is the calmest puppy I have seen. Sleeps most of the day, will have a 10 minute play time about twice a day, then sleep some more. No barking, no racing around the house, no jumping on anything... Hmmmm. Is she just too young, or maybe she is just still getting used to us? Three days is not a long time with the new family, but i always thought puppies are supposed to be energetic and rumbuncitous.
My vet said its normal for an OES puppy. That sheepdogs are by nature calmer then other breeds because they were bread to stay and watch their heard. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind the fact that she isn't a little tunado (yet? :? ), but I was kinda expecting a wirlwind going throught the house. :wink: he he he

Ok, i see evryone's point. :D She is definatly coming out of her shell. Took three days! She is now running around the house (can go up stairs, but not down), chasing the kittens, eating my husband's slippers, and she figured out how ro get on our bed, so now we have a sleepy sheepy waking up with us in the morning. :wink: She is just like a child in bed, she tosses and turns and moans, takes her a while to make herself comfortable. :) Huck the kitten and her are best friends now, she chases him around, and licks his head after she drinks so now he walks around with a mohawlk (sp) most of the time! ha ha ha :lol: Its been really wonderful! Now I don't want to go back to work :cry: , ever, just stay home with my little furry kids!
So cute! Dancer chases the cats too, especially Winston, but he is the one I find her cuddled up with too... LOL
