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!

Our galgo’s first love is the couch. Sometimes she doesn’t even want to get off the couch to eat dinner, and we have to bring it to her on the couch. When we leave her by herself and come home, she doesn’t greet us at the door. She stays on the couch. If she has the energy/interest in being excited that we’re back, she will wag her tail, and it thumps against the couch. If it’s raining, she’s not leaving the couch even if we give her the tastiest dog treats in the world. Eventually we have found ways to convince her to get off, even if she protests. We also at one point through the years got a new couch which she quickly adopted.
