Is Roxy an only fur-child? Before we brought Nola into our home, Bella lounged the majority of the day except for about 3-4 hours of pretty intense play sessions and walks. Once Nola came into our lives, her lounge time has been cut because of play time with Nola in addition to the additional 2-3 hours of play/walk time with us. (we cut it down because of the additional play time they have with each other.) Nola lounges about the same amount as Bella now. Maybe a little less since she is still a puppy.
If Roxy is choosing lounge/sleep over play and walks, you may have something to worry about. Also, if she is not just sleeping, but also acting lethargic, you may want to visit your vet. And as always, even if all else seems normal, if this is a changed behaviour, seek out your vet to rule out any problems.
