Laziest Dog?


Question Posted Tuesday December 6 2011, 4:16 am

First off, I'm getting a small apartment with my best friend next year when we are college sophomores. I'm looking for a low maintenance dog, with minimal shedding and easy to house train. Affectionate but okay while we're in class and such... I was thinking a beagle but it apparently is hard to train, so any suggestions are appreciated

The only two dogs I've ever had were Lab/Greyhound mixes. They liked to sleep. They also did enjoy playing every day. There's really no point in getting yourself a dog if you're not going to play with it, you know? As far as house training goes, I'm not sure how quickly they can be trained. And really depends on the trainer. We got them when they were already house broken, I suggest just doing that.

Lab/Greyhound mixes are very friendly, but also protective. They will happily greet anybody who walks through your front door. But once they feel like their 'master' is threatend, they will not hesitant to warn people to back off. Over-all, they're great dogs. You won't be disappointed with them.

I also found this list; [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

Out of the dogs listed, I would suggest a Dachshund.
Pug (Puggles are also a good choice.)
Basset Hound(Probably THE sweetest dog you can get.)
Akita Inu (I prefer Shiba Inus.)
Collie.
German Shepherd (My sister has this dog. I can't even begin to explain how amazing she is. Very sweet, great with other dogs, and a great protecter at night. Very large dog, though.)
Golden Retriever.
Labrador Retriever.
Great Dane (Hello, Scooby Doo?)

Hope I could help you! Happy dog hunting.

PS, Beagles are very sweet dogs. As far a training, if you're a good trainer, it should be very easy to train any dog. My cousins used to have one before he died, and he was very sweet. If I remember correctly, he only ever have a handful of accidents during the 12+ years they had him. I would suggest trying to find a dog that's already house trained, anyway. Might cost a little more money, but that's less stress and worry on you when you're both away at classes.
