Exercise
All breeds of dog need some exercise, which should
be combined with mental stimulation, such as
taking your dog to a new place or playing a favorite
game with him. However, you can also choose your
breed depending on how much exercise you enjoy.
Sporting breeds, such as Spaniels and Retrievers
are energetic, exuberant dogs who love to be busy
investigating new sights and smells. The Working and
Pastoral breeds, such as the Collie breeds, also thrive
on plenty of exercise. Generally speaking, smaller
breeds need less exercise, but do not let your dog
turn into a pampered pooch who becomes fat and
unhealthy because he spends his life on the sofa.
