He has normal heart rate, temp, resp rate. Is eating drinking and keen to walk or play with other dogs or with us when we start.
Other than that he just wants to sleep. It literally happened over night from what was a dog who would hound us to play to chilled out chap.
He is 14months old entire male-could it just be he is now nature?!
 
I would say if it happened overnight it sounds like it could be the early stages of a viral infection much like us catching a common cold you dont feel 100 percent but are still clinically well....keep an eye on his temperature etc.....

Otherwise just as hes a young lab and they as a breed are terrors for getting into things they shouldnt.. could he have eaten anything he shouldnt have? any toys missing?
 
No he hasn't eaten anything. However we did drop him to low protein food following trainers advice as he was mental about 3 months ago and he had 10 days of constant exercise over the festive period so we are wondering if he is just over tired as not having as much energy food as previously.
 
Some earlier posts about this, Noodlebug had a poorly one and mine was very off colour over Xmas.

Refused food, upset tum, slept a lot, but no temp or blockage (according to vet visit)

All better at the moment, scrounging grub and bouncing up and down again :)
