Activity Level Categories

The following categories primarily refer to an individual dog’s need for activity. Use them to locate listed dogs that fit your lifestyle and expectations.

• Companion: A couch potato. The dog is content simply being with the owner and occasionally playing but also enjoys going for walks in the neighborhood or to the park.
• Active Pet: The dog is satisfied with daily long walks and retrieval games. The dog needs substantial interaction and exercise but does not necessarily need formal training or competition.
• Sport: The dog may need competition or formal training to challenge their higher drive and energy level.
• Working: The dog displays intense herding instinct and some talent, which may need to be channeled into stock work or other intense, continuous activities.
