Hi Kyung,
My dogs always take a nap around 2:30 in the afternoon and a shorter nap just before supper time. Sometimes they sleep more if they've really been playing hard. They always sleep well at night, and my female will sleep up to 12 hours some nights (she stays in bed when we get up). If your pup is sleeping a lot during the day, it could be a sign that he's bored. I would give him a chance to rest during the day. If he doesn't take it, you can keep playing.
Have fun!
Heather
