Are Silky Terrier Dogs Playful Dogs?

One of the things we adore about dogs 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 dog breeds that tend to be the most fun loving. It's crucial to keep in mind that most of these breeds are not couch potatoes or shrinking violets and, in fact, generally 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 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 affect his level of liveliness. So even with these breeds, you should have a veterinarian examine your canine to make sure there are no underlying conditions before initiating any exuberant activities.
