Are Goldendoodle Dogs Playful Dogs?

One of the things we really love about canines is their playfulness. But some breeds are typically more playful than others.

So, in the spirit of a great time, we combed through our breed profiles to find the canine breeds that tend to be the most fun loving. It's necessary to keep in mind that most of these breeds are not couch potatoes or shrinking violets and, in fact, normally need lots of mental and physical stimulation so they don't become bored.

You should keep in mind that all dogs are individuals - not all Labs are infatuated with playing fetch, and there are most likely even some Portuguese Water Dogs who don't like water.

Obviously, with any of these breeds, a dog's health and age will influence his level of liveliness. Even with these breeds, you should have a vet inspect your pet dog to make sure there are no underlying conditions before initiating any exuberant activities.
