Skye Terrier Exercise Needs

The Skye Terrier needs a daily walk. Play will take care of a lot of its exercise needs, however, as with all breeds, play will not fulfill its primal instinct to walk. Dogs that do not get to go on daily walks are more likely to display behavior problems. These dogs will also enjoy a good romp in a safe, open area off lead, such as a large, fenced-in yard.

Top 5 Laziest Dog Breeds

When most people think about pet dogs, they think about playful, hopping bundles of fur. There are many different breeds of dogs out there, and countless of them do need a great amount of exercise.

They need a large backyard to run around in all day so that they can use up all that pent-up energy. However, there are various other breeds that are on the opposed end of the spectrum. If you do not have enough time or energy to play with your dog for many hours a day, then there are specific breeds ideal for your way of life.

Here are a few dog breeds that prefer napping over running.

1. Chow Chow - They often tend to be relatively 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 wonderful snuggle companions.

2. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - Bred predominantly as a lapdog and partner, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel succeeds at its original job. The breed is delicate, affectionate 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 soft and passionate towards their families. Although they require little exercise, potential owners should be prepared for a lot of drool.

4. Shih Tzu - Shih Tzus tend to not be especially fond of going outside. Many times, they will get lots of exercise simply walking the apartment all day.

5. Boston Terrier - Their weight commonly maxes out at 25 pounds, so even if you are restricted to a studio apartment, this pooch will not mind. Boston Terriers are quite less active. One walk a day is all you need to guarantee these dogs get a good workout.
