How much sleep does an adolescent puppy need (8-12 months)?

My puppy is 10 months old, I’ve had her for two months. Unsure of her breed since she’s a rescue but assumed to be spaniel/JRT/lab

I’m sure it’s probably breed dependent but how much sleep should they be getting around this age?

Typically after 3 hours of being out of the crate, she starts to become a witch and I put her into the crate for nap time. I just want to hangout with her longer especially on work days when she’s by herself for a big portion of the day.

She probably sleeps for 16-18 hours in a day between crate while I work (she gets a walk mid-day) and sleeping through the night.

She did really well this past weekend, maybe only 4 hours of naps during the day.
