    Top 5 Laziest Dog Breeds

    When most people think of canines, they think about jolly, hopping bundles of fur. There are several breeds of dogs out there, and countless of them do require a good amount of exercise.

    They need a big backyard to run all around in all day so that they can exhaust all that pent-up energy. Nevertheless, 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 several hours a day, then there are specific breeds best for your lifestyle.

    Here are some dog breeds that prefer napping over running.

    1. Chow Chow - They have a tendency to be rather 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 good snuggle friends.

    2. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - Bred predominantly as a lapdog and companion, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel succeeds at its original job. The breed is soft, 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 pet dogs that are gentle and caring towards their loved ones. Although they require small exercise, potential owners should be prepared for a lot of drool.

    4. Shih Tzu - Shih Tzus often 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 generally maxes out at 25 pounds, so even if you are limited to a studio apartment, this pooch will not mind. Boston Terriers are pretty less active. One walk a day is all you need to make sure these dogs get a good workout.

Coupled with their intelligence, if they determine an owner to be inconsistent or indecisive, the owner might find that the dog will challenge the owner. For training, both voice and hand signals are used, and a Small Münsterländer will routinely look back to check in with the hunter for silent signals at intervals when on hold or pointing.
