Are Mountain Feist Dogs Playful Dogs?

One of the things we appreciate about pet dogs is their playfulness. But some breeds are generally 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 vital to bear in mind that most of these breeds are not couch potatoes or shrinking violets and, in fact, typically 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 obsessed with playing fetch, and there are most likely 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. Even with these breeds, you should have a vet inspect your dog to make sure there are no underlying conditions before initiating any exuberant activities.
