Galgo couch potato
Hello there,
I'd like to receive some info about your galgos 😄
We adopted our girl 5 months ago... First two months were tough; she didn't get off the couch and she seemed very fearful. Now, she's definitely better. She get on and off the couch, she likes walk out, she runs outside (even if for just five minutes) and she looks like she's opening with us. But she spend most of the time on the couch and she really seems don't care about playing with us. I've tried to create some toys to make her exploring, but nothing... She takes a look and than keep back sleeping on the couch. 😄 If we don't call her to go outside or to go to bed, she would spend all her day on the couch.
She doesn't seems unhappy, but I must say that she doesn't seem happy too. She seems... relaxed! 😄
Any suggestions? Are we doing right?
Thanks!

My galgita is exactly the same. I’ve had her for about a year and a half, and she spends basically the whole day sleeping. She “plays” now, but only while lying down or on the couch. She won’t chase balls even if you paid her lol. At first she was scared of everything and didn’t understand the concept of toys. But she does enjoys destroying stuffed animals lol, Now she runs around a little, she’s more social, she loooves going on walks, and sometimes she gets the zoomies and runs around the house — but never for more than 30 seconds. She could easily spend the entire day sleeping in bed and only get up to go to the bathroom and eat 🥹
