Borzoi Exercise Needs

To maintain their fitness these dogs need plenty of exercise, including a long daily walk and regular opportunities to run off the leash, however in some countries it is forbidden to allow all the dogs in this fleet-footed hunting category off the leash. The Borzoi make excellent jogging companions and usually enjoy running alongside a bicycle but beware, a Borzoi is quite likely to shoot off after any prey it catches sight of. If this happens you will need to react very quickly.

Top 5 Laziest Dog Breeds

When most people think about canines, they think about jolly, hopping bundles of fur. There are multiple breeds of dogs out there, and many of them do need a good amount of physical activity.

They need a big backyard to run around in all day so that they can expend all that pent-up energy. However, there are other breeds that are on the opposite end of the spectrum. If you do not have enough time or energy to play with your doggie for many hours a day, then there are particular breeds best for your way of life.

Here are several dog breeds that prefer napping over running.

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

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

3. Basset Hound - They are very lazy pet dogs that are gentle and tender towards their loved ones. Although they require little exercise, potential owners should be prepared for a lot of drool.

4. Shih Tzu - Shih Tzus tend to not be particularly fond of going outside. Many times, they will get plenty of exercise simply walking the apartment all day.

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