How much sleep does a lurcher need?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Adult dogs need on average 12 -14 hours of sleep if they are in sync with your own sleep patterns say 8 hours a night, they need to get the remaining hours through the day.

At what age do lurchers calm down?

What exactly do you mean by calming down? Mine have all been at their worst behaviour wise from around 12-18 months to be honest. But they've not magically changed at 18 months,it's been more of a gradual maturing.
