What breeds do you think SHOULD have a job? Like agility, sledding, hunting, weight-pulling,,,,just something not not just your regular pet dog that gets daily walks and goes to dog parks once in a while?
I was thinking about this when looking more into a bull terrier, they're seem like they just need more activity than dog parks & walks. But even with my dogs like Pepe & Princess I think therapy work would be good work for them. Would you consider that working? And also would you think that would be enough to stimulant a bull terrier or they need to be in some sort of sport like weight-pulling or flyball? And how time-consuming are these sports? Can you do it like once a week? I don't see myself committing my ALL to these kinda of activites as I see how much owners our involved when they have dogs that do these sports. Can't you just go participate from time to time, without the competing and such?
And what would you advise something to do with Didi? She's not cut out for therapy dog work and not active enough for a sport. Maybe would something like dog obedience be good? But again is this one of those things you jsut have to commit to alot to be able to participate in?
Thanks.
