Don't worry :) she is just a baby and they need lots of rest!
The majority of their growing is done while they are sleeping and she has a LOT of growing left to do :)
Any pictures?

What do you mean by "not active"? What kind of dog is she? Did you just pick her up? Has your vet seen her? You are going to have to provide more info.

She is most likely just healing and catching up from being sick. She could also still be transitioning, with the illness and all...it could take longer. Keep an eye on her though. I don't know anything about bullmastiffs, but EMs can be pretty lazy, even as puppies!

My big baby, now 6 months old was not very active when younger. They do sleep alot! Just like human babies! He would have mini bursts of energy and then just stop to take a nap! They do do a lot of growing in the begining... my guy was 8lbs 8 oz at 5 wks, and just 11 weeks later at 19 wks was 72 lbs! He is quit active now, needing at minimum a 1/2 hr walk plus playtime plus plenty to chew on... my advice, enjoy it while you can!
