Big dogs like golden retrievers or black labs seem to love being active and playing. Having been the owner of a pug dog for a couple of years, I can assure you that not all dogs enjoy physical activities. My pug dog, Sandy, will hide under the couch when her leash even comes into view. In the event I actually manage to get the leash onto her, she lies on the floor like a dead weight and refuses to be walked. The most energy I’ve ever seen Sandy expend has been either jumping onto the couch to pass out for hours, or running away from her leash. So when adopting a furry four legged friend, make sure you’re aware that the personalities of dogs tend to vary, and you can’t expect your dog to give up its free will!
