Are Gordon Setter Dogs Playful Dogs?
-
One of the things we appreciate about canines is their playfulness. Some breeds are usually more playful than others.
In the spirit of a good time, we scoured through our breed profiles to find the dog breeds that tend to be the most fun loving. It's important to bear in mind that most of these breeds are not couch potatoes or shrinking violets and, in fact, normally need lots of physical and mental stimulation so they don't become bored.
You should remember that all dogs are individuals - not all Labs are obsessed with playing fetch, and there are probably even some Portuguese Water Dogs who don't like water.
Of course, with any of these breeds, a dog's health and age will influence his level of liveliness. So even with these breeds, you should have a vet analyze your pet dog to make sure there are no underlying conditions before initiating any exuberant activities.

5. Beagle - This breed is led by his nose, and likes to have a lot of opportunity to use his strong sniffer. That can be as simple as your hiding treats around your house or taking him on long, meandering walks outdoors.
