st-bernard-2Some dogs don’t have much interest in high end activities such as running, racing or playing frisby.  They prefer a laid back life style and require only a 20 minute walk twice a day.  There are some breeds that fall into this category. Among them are the Bulldog, Shih Tzu, St Bernard and Pekingese. Dogs that are couch potato’s range in size from very large to petite. Despite the fact that they love to stay in their dog beds and rest, they are not pushovers!  They can be uncooperative, stubborn and quick to take an assertive role in the absence of a human. They do like their long naps but they also need guidance, discipline and regular exercise.
