congrats on your puppy. I have one also. Mine slept a lot also when I first got her. I just stayed around her for her to get to know me and I just kept calling her name constantly. She knows her name, even though my family likes to call her different names at some point. She's probably still scared of her new surroundings. Once she gets comfortable, she'll relax.
