Top 5 Laziest Dog Breeds
They need a large backyard to run about in all day so that they can use up all that pent-up energy. Though, there are various other breeds that are on the opposed end of the spectrum. If you do not have the time or energy to play with your pet for many hours a day, then there are certain breeds ideal for your life-style.
Here are several dog breeds that prefer napping over running.
1. Chow Chow - They have a tendency to be fairly 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 excellent snuggle buddies.
2. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - Bred primarily as a lapdog and friend, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel shines at its original job. The breed is gentle, caring and would much prefer to be inside next to you than doing any sort of vigorous activity.
3. Basset Hound - They are really lazy dogs that are gentle and affectionate towards their loved ones. Although they require little exercise, potential owners should be prepared for a lot of drool.
4. Shih Tzu - Shih Tzus usually tend to not be specifically fond of going outdoors. Many times, they will get plenty of exercise simply walking the apartment all day.
5. Boston Terrier - Their weight generally maxes out at 25 pounds, so even if you are restricted 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.
