You didn't mention how old your morkie is? But my guess is it young and that is very normal. Under 3 1/2 months.
If it is older than that, have it checked by a vet. Could be heart condition or diabeties. I have a Chorkie who did the same thing, at 5 months I mentioned it to my vet turns out he has a heart murmmur.

All puppies sleep a lot, and when they're adults they still sleep a lot. Some dogs more than others. My little Leila sleeps like 16 hrs. a day. I was interested in the same question, and I found out that dogs just sleep a lot. I forgot the reason or I'd tell you. I just searched for how much dogs sleep on the internet.

Babies sleep alot, including puppies. It's to help them grow. when the puppy is sleepign let him. He needs the rest, depending on how yound he is waking him up all the time could be deadly!
Everything is normal! :)

Your mutt is a puppy.
Not likely anything is wrong so don't panic yet but many of these backyard bred pups do have problems.
