Top 5 Laziest Dog Breeds

When most people think about pet dogs, they think of jolly, bouncing bundles of fur. There are a wide range of breeds of dogs out there, and several of them do need a good amount of physical activity.

They need a large backyard to run about in all day so that they can exhaust all that pent-up energy. Nevertheless, there are various other breeds that are on the opposed end of the spectrum. If you do not have enough time or energy to play with your pet for many hours a day, then there are certain breeds perfect for your life-style.

Here are a few dog breeds that prefer napping over running.

1. Chow Chow - They have a tendency to be relatively aloof, but their independent nature means it will not mind when you commit for work in the morning. They can get over 70 pounds in weight, but they make terrific snuggle partners.

2. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - Bred primarily as a lapdog and friend, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel excels at its original job. The breed is delicate, loving and would much prefer to be inside next to you than doing any sort of vigorous activity.

3. Basset Hound - They are really lazy canines that are delicate and affectionate towards their loved ones. Although they require little bit of exercise, potential owners should be prepared for a lot of drool.

4. Shih Tzu - Shih Tzus usually tend to not be specifically keen on going outdoors. Many times, they will get lots of exercise simply walking around the apartment all day.

5. Boston Terrier - Their weight usually maxes out at 25 pounds, so even if you are limited to a studio apartment, this pooch will not mind. Boston Terriers are relatively non-active. One walk a day is all you need to guarantee these dogs get a good workout.
