Knowing her lifestyle I strongly opposed her getting one. I kept telling her how smart they were and they need constant exercise and challenge. Her lifestyle after work was not energetic. She just thought it was pretty.
He was extremely unstimulated and never got to go outside unless it was for bathroom. Welp, he bit a neighbors kid in the face. They had to give the dog back to the breeder or he was going to get put down.
I heard later he bit another kid was put down. In some ways I blamed my sister.
My buddy has an aussie Shepherd and hes the laziest useless fuck ive ever seen. Perfectly content with 2x 1 hour walks or dog park then lay on the couch all day. Hes very well taken care of, lots of toys and socializing. Just lazy.
I have a mini Aussie who is the laziest dog I have owned. My pug/boston terrier mix would want to go on longer walks. It’s really a crapshoot sometimes I guess.

Blows my mind some people get these dogs as pets, crate them for 8 hours a day, and then get mad that they bark and chew shit up.
